Artisan Baking

Life & Culture Denver post 2022-10-26 feature article is Sourdough. a thing that makes me think … Hmmm.

the article starts with a sub heading Hops and Pie overhalls pizza menu, highlighting the way chefs are thinking about crusts… Hmm

Hops & Pie Artisan Pizzeria. they are taking crust into a new direction. What used to be beer based crust – is now made with a sourdough starter. The starter is fermented with naturally occurring yeast in the air, rather than commercially available. The article continues ‘we have the pandemic to thank for this’ (yikes). ‘We had a renaissance of home bakers and now, although they may not be baking at home any more, people are looking for sourdough.’

Hmm that is a long road to go for artisan baking.
