Daniel Leader of Bread Alone Bakery

On this episode baker and author Daniel Leader joins me to talk about his new book Living Bread. We discuss his early bread education through the “backdoor school of baking” and the founding of his bakery, Bread Alone, in 1983. He shares his thoughts and experiences gained from nearly 40 years of baking and through his friendships with bakers from around the world and he tells us why he thinks we are just at the beginning of the local grain economy movement, here in America, and what it means for the future of artisan bread.
