When was naan bread invented?
It's impossible to pinpoint the exact invention of naan bread.
Here's why:
* Ancient Origins: Flatbreads have been a staple food in the Indian subcontinent for millennia. Naan is likely a descendant of these ancient breads, with its origins possibly dating back to the Indus Valley Civilization (around 3300–1300 BCE).
* Evolution over Time: Over centuries, bread-making techniques evolved. Naan as we know it today likely developed gradually, incorporating influences from various regions and cultures.
* No Single Inventor: There's no specific person credited with "inventing" naan. It's a culinary tradition that evolved organically over time, reflecting the diverse culinary history of the region.
While we can't pinpoint a specific date, we can say that naan has a long and rich history, with its origins deeply rooted in ancient Indian food culture.
