A Stir The Pots Post

The demands of a loafer

by | May 20, 2011 | Baking, Bread

Making dough takes dough. And so does baking it. Okay, puns aside, competent bread baking takes time, money, and other resources. It's an intricate art as well as a demanding craft, playing with ingredients that have a magic and a biology. Bread for me is constant, it's in the epicenter of my mind – commandng attention and generating questions and ideas. What bread today? What loaf? What shape? Which flour? And yes the green stuff is a necessity.

    I saw you mentioned over at Chef Pandita. Really am digging your photos. Making bread is costly. Buying it even more so. At least the quality stuff! Your creations look amazing.

    I hate it when someone else has posted a comment before me!
    Jeremy, I was googling the word “biga” and your post came up.
    Nice loaf, you loafer!
