Mientras visitaba la region de Seia en el centro de Portugal decidi hacer una parada en un museo muy especial! es especial porque es el primero del genero al que visito, aqui podemos ver basicamente resumida la historia del pan, desde su invension hasta el proceso de como pasa del campo hasta nuestra mesa, asi que digamos que este post esta centrado en ese importante alimento que tiene siglos acompañando nuestros hogares como una fuente primordial de alimento " EL PAN"🧭🏭👨🏫
A SUMMARY STORY🥨🥐🍞 / UNA HISTORIA RESUMIDA🌎🧠👨🏫
If we read some scientific articles we realize that there is no date that coincides with the origin of bread, but many experts trace it back to the prehistoric era, some comment that it was exactly in the Paleolithic, that is, we are referring to more than 10,000 before Christ, when mentions of bread begin to be made exactly in the region of Jericho, that is, in the east around 8000 before Christ, already at this stage of history there were some clues of the use of agriculture and that is when the "soft wheat" appears all We know that without the correct tools we would not have been able to work bread, that is why it is strongly linked to the evolution of tools in society!🌎🤴👸👳♀️👳♂️
Si leemos algunos articulos cientificos nos damos cuenta que no existe una fecha que coincida sobre el origen del pan, pero muchos expertos lo remontan desde la era prehistorica algunos comentan que fue exactamente en el paleolitico osea estamos refiriendonos a mas de 10.000antes de cristo, cuando se comienza a hacer menciones del pan es exactamente en la region de Jerico osea en el oriente a unos 8000antes de cristo, ya en esta etapa de la historia habia algunas pistas del uso de la agricultura y es entonces cuando aparece el "trigo blando" todos sabemos que sin las herramientas correctas no hubiesemos podido trabajar el pan por eso esta fuertemente ligado a la evolucion de las herramientas en la sociedad!👨🏫👨🎓🕵️♂️
Thanks to the Mediterranean civilizations we can have an idea how bread evolved in the way it was worked, when man understood that bread could be created with different seeds without being only wheat, then the invention of different types of shapes and flavors began of bread! among the seeds used are barley, spelled and rye the method of grinding the seeds was previously very rudimentary and consisted of grinding the seeds using two large and heavy stones while adding water, this result resulted in an "omelette" that would be something like: "origin of bread".😮😮🤔
Gracias a las civilizaciones mediterranicas podemos tener una idea como fue que el pan evoluciono en la forma de como era trabajado, cuando el hombre entendio que podia crearse pan con diferentes semillas sin ser unicamente el trigo entonces comenzo la invension de distintos tipos de formas y sabores de pan! entre las semillas usadas son la cebada, espelta y centeno el metodo de moler las semillas anteriormente era muy rudimentario y consistia en moler las semillas usando dos piedras grandes y pesadas mientras se le agregaba agua, este resultado daba como resultado una "tortilla" que seria algo asi como: "origen del pan"😶😶😜

THE FIRST APPEARANCE🥨🥐🍞 / LA PRIMERA APARICION🌎🧠👨🏫
And of course it is not surprising that the Egyptians, one of the most advanced civilizations of the time, were the first to give "a shape" to bread, it was an important and respected step because bread was a symbol in Egyptian of offering for their gods and At the same time, let's say that bread was a "primitive currency" since in ancient times there was no paper money and it was marketed with food, in this case the Egyptians did it with bread!😏🙄😶
Y claro no es de sorprendernos que los egipcios una de las civilizaciones mas avanzadas de la epoca fueran los primeros en darle "una forma" al pan, fue un paso importante y respetado porque el pan era un simbolo en egipcio de ofrenda para sus dioses y al mismo tiempo el pan digamos que fue una "moneda primitiva" ya que en la antiguedad no existia el papel moneda y se comercializaba con comida, en este caso los egipcios lo hacian con pan!😎🤑😱

YEARS LATER🥨🥐🍞 / AÑOS MAS TARDE🌎🧠👨🏫
In the middle of 800 BC, after the appearance of bread with the Egyptians, the Greeks saw that they could take much advantage of this food, so they began to make improvements in the "final" product, and how it could be perfected and improved. bread?? of course in the way it was ground, while the flour is finer it is much easier to mold and work with it, the first ovens that were found to be used to make bread were in the Mediterranean! As I mentioned earlier, the Greeks managed to put bread to good use and sold many ideas to the Romans. Although Roman civilization disagreed with the "ferment" technique, only in the second century did the "bakers" or professionals of the ferment appear in historical records. bread!😮😮👳♂️👳♀️🧔
A mediados del 800 antes de Cristo luego de aparecer el pan con los egipcios los griegos vieron que se podia sacar mucho provecho de este alimento, por lo que comenzaron a realizar perfecciones en el producto "final", y como se podia perfeccionar y mejorar el pan?? claro en la forma en como era molido, mientras la harina es mas fina es mucho mas facil moldearlo y trabajar con el, los primeros hornos que se encontraron que eran usados para hacer pan fue en el mediterraneo! como lo mencione anteriormente los Griegos lograron dar un buen uso al pan y vendieron muchas ideas a los Romanos aunque la civilizacion romana estaba en desacuerdo la tecnica del "fermento", solo en el siglo II aparece en registros historicos los "panaderos" o profesionales del pan! 🕵️♂️🕵️♂️

The dates 60 and 40 before Christ would mark the history of how bread was made and would also give a boost to the technique to make it commercial, the Romans were the first to invent the tide mill, did you know that Rome had a university that was exclusive for bakers??? FANTASTIC RIGHT?, The Roman Empire under the power of Julius Caesar manages to expand the technique of making bread with heavy tools in this case tide mills to "Gaul" for the Jews the BREAD was something divine so much so that the bread is symbolism of the body of "Jesus Christ". It was one of the main sources of food for the Jews and if we read the Bible it is mentioned in almost every book!👨🏫👨🎓🕵️♂️
Las fechas 60 y 40 antes de Cristo marcarian la historia de como era hecho el pan y tambien daria un impulso a la tecnica para hacerlo comercial, los Romanos fueron los primeros en inventar el molino de marea, sabias que Roma tenia una universidad que era exclusiva para panaderos??? FANTASTICO CIERTO?, El imperio Romano bajo el poder de Julio Cesar logra expandir la tecnica de fabricar pan con herramientas pesadas en este caso molinos de marea a "Galia" para los Judios el PAN era algo divino tanto que el pan es simbolismo del cuerpo de "Jesucristo". Fue una de las principales fuentes de alimento para los Judios y si leemos la Biblia es mencionado en casi en todos los libros!🕵️♀️👩🎓👩🏫

FROM THE V TO THE XV CENTURY🥨🥐🍞 / DESDE EL SIGLO V HASTA EL XV🌎🧠👨🏫
Then, centuries later, bread begins to become a distinction, although it sounds cruel, bread did not always maintain its quality for all societies, for example, at one point in history, a bread called: "poor man's bread" was created, it was very rudimentary at first. moment to be realized and its nutrients were not at all similar to the bread that was served on the plate of royalty! let's say it's the dark side of the monarchy! The medieval era had other names for breads, for example: "Trencher" was a bread that was only eaten by royalty.🤴👸
Luego siglos despues el pan comienza a transformarse en una distincion, aunque suena cruel el pan no siempre mantuvo su calidad para todas las sociedades, por ejemplo en una altura de la historia se crea un pan llamado: "pan de pobre" era muy rudimentario al momento de realizarse y sus nutrientes no eran para nada similar al pan que se servia en el plato de la realeza! digamos que es el lado oscuro de la monarquia! la era medieval tenia otros nombres para los panes por ejemplo: "Zanjadora" era un pan que solo era comido por la realeza.🧔🧔
.
Personally I had never read or heard the word "cutter" as it was called to people who in the middle ages worked in the art of creating bread, even in the middle ages the invention of the Romans was used, that is, the water mills, but in other parts of europe, for example, the windmill was already used to create bread, when loggers or "bakers" are established, then the bread is already made with a mixture of seeds!🌾🌾🌾
Personalmente nunca habia leido o escuchado la palabra "talador" asi se les llamaba a las personas que en la edad media trabajaban en el arte de crear pan, aun en la edad media se usaba la invension de los romanos osea los molinos de agua, pero en otras partes de europa por ejemplo ya se utilizaba el molino de viento para crear pan, cuando se establecen los taladores o "panaderos" entonces el pan ya pasa a realizarse con una mezcla de semillas!🍞🥟🥖

THE CRUEL 16TH CENTURY🥨🥐🍞 / EL CRUEL SIGLO 16🌎🧠👨🏫
Surely you have already seen some medieval movies where a child steals a loaf of bread and is sentenced to cut off his hand or even death! It seems exaggerated but humanity went through many periods of famines and tragedies and bread, which was a very cheap product, was the only food for a home, history takes a strange turn in history and it is that in the 17th century bread becomes be one of the most expensive products in history! this happened exactly in france, and here begins the strange "grain war" in Portugal a similar period was lived and there were many counterfeiters of flour! a pirate bread??🤨🤔😮
Seguramente ya vistes algunas peliculas medievales donde un niño roba un pan y le es sentenciado a cortar la mano o hasta la muerte! parece exagerado pero la humanidad paso por muchos periodos de hambrunas y tragedias y el pan que era un producto muy barato era el unico alimento para un hogar, la historia da una vuelta extraña en la historia y es que en el siglo 17 el pan pasa a ser uno de los productos mas caro de la historia! esto sucedio exactamente en francia, y aqui comienza la extraña "guerra de cereales" en Portugal se vivio un periodo similar y habian muchos falsificadores de harinas! un pan pirata¿¿😲😢😱

THE PRODUCT OF EQUALITY🥨🥐🍞 / EL PRODUCTO DE LA IGUALDAD🌎🧠👨🏫
At the end of the 17th century and the beginning of the 18th, the government established fair prices for bread, reaching the goal of making it a very economical food that all social classes had the right to buy. Did you know that previously salt was not added to bread? this was because the "salt" had to pay some tax rates and of course nobody wanted to pay them! then in the 18th century the tax rates on salt were eliminated and the bread now tastes better!😍😍
Finales del siglo 17 y principios del 18 el gobierno establece precios justos al pan llegando al objetivo de hacerlo un alimento muy economico y del cual todas las clases sociales tenian derecho de comprar, sabias que anteriormente no se le colocaba sal al pan?? esto era porque la "sal" tenia que pagar unas tasas de impuestos y por supuesto nadie queria pagarlas! luego en el XVIII se eliminan las tasas de impuesto a la sal y el pan ahora tiene un mejor sabor!🤣😂

LAST CHAPTER OF THE PAN🥨🥐🍞 / ULTIMO CAPITULO DEL PAN🌎🧠👨🏫
The story still continues and it is that little by little the way of making bread was perfected, we left aside the mills to work with created tools that work with electricity at that point the industrial revolution of bread begins, although there are chapters in history including the world war where the bread was gray with terrible quality! years later bread takes on different shapes, sizes, flavors and even colors depending on your country! and today bread is everyone's food!😮😮
