I would like to ask you what do the native speakers of English mean when they say a thick loaf of bread? Does the adjective "thick" describe the bread's texture or size? Does it just mean that the loaf is big or high? I tried to google it but "thick" seems to be used mainly with the word "slice".
Here's the original sentence:
The oldest surviving recipe for beer dates back about 4,000 years to ancient Mesopotamia and calls for thick, multi-grain loaves to be mixed with honey
I need it for translation purposes.
Many thanks in advance!
