Hi. I’ve been kicking around kitchens since I was a kid. I was underfoot in my parents’ tiny kitchen in NYC for as long as I can remember. I went to culinary school. I’ve cooked in restaurants and I’ve cooked in hotels. About 15 years ago I decided that as much as I loved cooking I needed to do something that would pay better. I went into software development (to be honest the professional cooking was a break between software jobs so it wasn’t a huge stretch.) But I’ve always loved cooking and baking.
I’ve cooked Mexican food and Italian food. I’ve kicked the tires on Morrocan food. I’ve made felafel, kebab, and other staples of the Israeli/Lebanese/Palestinian kitchen. But my true love is bread.
I’m starting this blog for me. If you read it and enjoy it that’s great but I’m starting it for me. It’s a place for me to document my baking experiments. It’s somewhere I can share my successes and failures and hopefully learn from my mistakes. The goal at the end of the day is to come up with some easy and amazing recipes so I can keep fresh bread on the table.
