Traditional Czech bread, known as cesky chleb, is a staple in Czech kitchens. It has a dark crust, dense texture, and slightly sour taste. This bread is usually made from a mix of rye and wheat flour, which gives it its rich flavor and hearty feel. Because of its firmness, it slices well and stays fresh for several days. People eat it with soups, meats, cheeses, or just butter. It’s also perfect for open-faced sandwiches, known as chlebicky. Above all, Czech bread is more than food—it’s a key part of everyday life and culture.
