On the Rise: Exploring the Future of Bread at 澳门马会传真 Charlotte


Welcome to all of my fellow breadheads. 澳门马会传真 CHARLOTTE CHEF ON ASSIGNMENT PETER REINHART

For two consecutive years, 澳门马会传真 Charlotte has convened some of the bread world’s best and brightest bakers, thinkers and entrepreneurs to share knowledge, wrestle with common challenges and ponder the next big ideas in bread.

Curated by 澳门马会传真 Charlotte Chef on Assignment Peter Reinhart, James Beard Award-winning author of more than 10 books including “The Bread Baker’s Apprentice,” the Symposium follows a TED-talk style format where individual presentations are followed by ample time for interaction and discussion.

Notes Reinhart, “My goal is to provide a collegial environment in which to explore a very controversial, yet beloved, subject. We’ll hear about consumer trends, advances in technology and technique, and socioeconomic factors that are shaping the business of bread, both now and in the future.”

If the major theme of the 2017 Symposium was “bread is back,” 2018’s edition focused on the resurgence of sourdough and included a full day of hands-on workshops on sourdoughs and on baking with rye, polycrops and local grains.

Watch select videos from the 2017 and 2018 editions below, or in greater depth.
