bread
Sliced sandwich base
Bread is a staple food made from flour and water, typically leavened with yeast and baked.
It comes in countless varieties—sliced sandwich bread, crusty loaves, flatbreads, rolls.
Breaking bread with someone means sharing a meal.
Bread is also slang for money: I need to make some bread.
The verb means to coat food with breadcrumbs before cooking: breaded chicken cutlets.
