If you go to the store for the mass distributed stuff, the copy pasted churned brand, whatever it is, will never compare to homemade bread.
Today I made garlic bread.
You add flour, water, salt, and most importantly, yeast. When baking bread, you have to let the dough rise.
No reasonable intervention will significantly increase the speed the dough rises for really good bread, possibly the best bread in the world.
If you go to the store for the mass distributed stuff, the copy pasted churned brand, whatever it is, will never compare to homemade bread.
If you go to a bakery, it’s better, but never as good as the manual kneading you can do for yourself for what you want.
But world-class bread does have shared constants of quality you can get only from the best.
“Garlic bread” gives me flexibility to experiment with some wild ingredients, knowing it’s always going to be delicious, just in different ways.
But regardless, the vastly plentiful, worldly takes on garlic bread as a result have a decentralized deliciousness I can never get over.
But fundamental constants led to why those ingredients combos came to be. I respect them.
You absolutely must add yeast, a unicellular fungi from eons of networking, and absolutely must allow that yeast enough time for your dough to rise. It’s necessary.
The collective consensus and consciousness ingrained in human evolution craves the yeast, the mushroom network of legacies past. My bread rises, superior to impatient plebs.
Because as long as it’s garlic bread with yeast made with the fundamental ingredients, it will converge to something good.

"Suprise, Kacchan!"
Izuku happily wiggles, hopping from one foot to the other like an excitable toddler, despite the fact that he's 6 foot something and a venerable powerhouse of a pro hero.
In his hand is a plate of… something… messy from each edge.
There's a message written on top in some sort of sauce, but the sauce had gotten absorbed in the rice. The mishmashed mush of vegetables (?) kind of looked like something you would pull out of a shower drain.
But the meat looks good? Browned chicken, maybe a little overspiced.
"The hell's this?"
"I made you dinner!" Izuku ushers Katsuki towards the dining table, hardly letting him take off his jacket first.
As soon as Katsuki sits, a napkin gets shoved in his lap as if they're at a fancy restaurant. Izuku becomes a whirlwind, flitting this way
and that in their home until there are a number of candles lit.
It would make the ambiance more romantic if it wasn't still daylight outside. It was closer to lunchtime than dinner, but Katsuki would let him have this.
He, instead, stares down at [the meal] and carefully schools his features. He isn't sure if he looks deadpan or intrigued like he means to, because as soon as he looks close, the veggies /jump/ on the plate, bubbling like they're still boiling.
