The origin of shio bread.

Shio-pan was first invented at the "Pain Maison" shop in Yawatahama City, Ehime Prefecture, Japan, during 2003-2004 . The shop owner wanted to create a new type of bread suitable for the summer, so they decided to use high-quality butter and sea salt as the main ingredients. The result was a bread with a rich buttery flavor, a crispy base, and a mild salty taste, which quickly became a favorite among locals.
