The staff of life: bread abounds in culture, art, religion, and our bodies. But how is it made? Who makes it and why? Empowered and healthy consumers understand the production of their favorite products: wine, cars, music, Mardi Gras, computers. We will discuss the ingredients, history, tools, and processes that create bread and flour. We will learn to produce incredible, healthy, and flavorful bread with no-tech equipment and fresh flour.
The more you share and the more you give away, the more you receive. The more you teach, the more you know. Demystifying the creation of bread - flour, water, salt, sourdough - is such an incredibly cathartic and important endeavor. Our most important food has been manipulated and mutated beyond belief; teaching people how to make bread with the same methods used 10,000 years ago is empowering and inspiring. It humbles the teacher, the students, the entire process and relationship to food. Bread baking is elemental: fire, water, time. It is also tactile and cognitive. Re-introducing that pleasure to chefs and to the public is imperative for our craft to move forward. And to raise the bar on fresh, healthy, incredible food made with soul.
