Features and selection of breadcrumbs

Table setting is an important and creative process. On how the table is laid, and what items are proposed to use, depends on the impression of guests from the feast. When choosing accessories you should pay attention not only to individual dishes, main dishes, but also to secondary items. For example, a variety of vases and crates should be chosen harmonious and roomy.

Sugar bowl has long been known among the general population. Initially, they were made in order to serve bread crackers on the table. From here also received the name. Later, biscuits, sweets, and bread were placed in breadcrumbs. Now they are sometimes even mistakenly called bread bins. But both names show well that most often breadcrumbs appear on the table at lunchtime, as their contents go in addition to soups.

There are several types of bread bowl.

In rural areas, most of the dishes were made of wood, so these crates can be considered the most authentic. Traditionally they are made from linden, which in itself has a pleasant shade and antibacterial properties, that is, safe to interact with food.

If wood and any other options are difficult to make yourself, wicker crockery is particularly accessible. Usually breadcrumbs weave from a rod or bark. Birch bark is a birch bark that is cut into strips and dried. And the vine is peeled willow rods.

They make beautiful cracker baskets, however, they are relatively short-lived. Like any plant material, the bark and the vine wear out over time, and the structure itself may begin to fall apart. But they have another plus - this is an opportunity to easily and at any time make a handle-bezel.

In contrast to the wicker, metal products - it is always a guarantee of long service. However, here it is imperative to pay attention to which metal is chosen as the material. Most desirable of course silver breadcrumbs, because this metal not only looks beautiful on the table, but also has strong antibacterial properties. Sometimes they are made with a handle-ring or with a lid, which adds convenience in use.

In the XIX century, the production of metal crates, stylized as wicker, began, and they are still popular today.

XIX century, we owe another type of biscuit. Porcelain was very popular among the high society due to its white color and surface, which allowed to apply any pattern and colorful glaze. Such drawings were usually repeated on the dishes included in one set. It was considered bad form to set up different sets, therefore the dinner sets included breadcrumbs.

For less well-off houses, faience sets were made. Outwardly, they were almost indistinguishable from porcelain, and therefore became quite a worthy replacement for them. Thus, earthenware crates began to appear. And those and others can now be purchased in the stores of dishes.

With the advent of cheap plastic, dishes made from this material have become an integral part of our life. She, in turn, is also quite cheap, and at the same time not as fragile as porcelain, faience, wicker or even wood. The quality of plastic is second to only metals and especially their hard alloys, however, it is much lighter in weight.

When choosing a bowl of honey, you should pay attention to marking and type of plastic - it must belong to food categories, otherwise such a thing cannot be used even for temporary storage of products. There are also food cracker made from food grade silicone. They are characterized by flexibility and elasticity.
