Winter Baking at Athens Farmers Market

This Baby Back Batard, (above) with Gruyere, carmelized onions, BBQ,  and fresh spinach is always a big hit….and comes with a handle!

Here is a four minute clip of some baking Dane, Joel and I had done a few weeks back. Included are some cool fougasse, focaccia, batards, baguettes and of course pizza. I hope you like it.

I continue to work with the perennial wheatgrass developed by the Land Institute called Kernza. Here is a Kernza pizza with Parmigiano Reggiano, fresh mozzarella, fresh basil and San Marzano filets with olive oil and sea salt.  Perennials like this are gonna save the world!

(Any references to my Baking Manager Dane having leprosy came from a joke I had with Jonah the previous week- I warned Jonah not to laugh if Dane accidently lost a finger or nose. Boy these kids have long memories. jeeeez.)

It’s been a fabulous summer here in Athens, Ohio. I have the wonderful opportunity to pick from a fantastic array of local products for my baking retinue. Here is a video of a few things that me and my team bake with ingredients grown right here. I am very thankful that we have such great farmers in this region who make our far-flung college town one of the best places to make food in.  In my next blog entry, I’ll show you the dedicated farmers and farms that make up the backbone of Athens County food economy.
