Sample Text
This booklet tells how to make the best bread in the world. If you don’t believe me, try it! No matter how much of this bread I've eaten, I've never grown tired of it.
What’s amazing is that it’s made from wheat, water, and salt. That’s all!
I first learned to love this bread while visiting the Community of the Ark, a utopian society founded in France by an Italian disciple of Gandhi. On my return home, a friend taught me how to make the same bread—or pretty close. Some further experimenting ended up with the method in this booklet. If you’ve made other breads, you’ll find it refreshingly simple.
