I have mentioned before that my bread sometimes looks like it came straight out of a revered bread book cover.

This is exactly what I mean.

The greatest bakers would never serve you an under fermented, pale, bland creation.

I sometimes get nervous that someone is going to judge my bien cuit loaves as “burnt”, but I trust your expert palates to see what I see — my pride and joy, carefully formulated, mixed, shaped and timed. NOT a mistake.

Pretty decorations are nice, but pushing that fermentation and caramelization ensure the fullest flavor!

Eat well.
Feed better.
Push the boundaries to reach for excellence

EPIC.

I had never received this many donations for a single food drive.

Your generosity and willingness to help in a way that’s 100% selfless is commendable.

Eat well.

Realize your power by helping the community. 🫶🏻

If you need me tomorrow, I’ll be baking 🤗

🤯 Americans eat approximately fifty BILLION burgers annually, of which an estimated SEVERAL HUNDRED MILLION are consumed on Labor Day weekend. 😆

🥳 This Friday, 9/4, Honest Breads LLC will be baking brioche buns with and without sesame seeds.

Not several hundred million though; small batches made with local, top quality ingredients, lovingly, expertly and individually hand shaped, and baked in a Belgian stone oven 😍

☀️ After a whole week of forecasted storms, it looks like Labor Day will be grill friendly!

And if not, there’s always smash burgers 😋

🍔 Do you like yours medium, rare or well done? What toppings do you choose?

📆 This Saturday, 9/5, as is customary on the first Saturday of every month, the Bel Air United Methodist Church Food Ministries are running one of their huge food drives at the church on Linwood St, behind Honest Breads.

🚗 🚘 🚙 Dozens and dozens of cars will be waiting in the parking lots for HOURS until the food and groceries are handed out in an impressively orderly fashion.

🙏 With your help, I have baked and donated well over 700 portions of bread over time for the church to distribute among the underprivileged in our surroundings.

📝 To be exact: Honest Breads has contributed 711 portions of bread from your donations and 57 more that I have been able to add, for a total of 768 so far.

🙌 For this month’s drive I have so far received enough funds to contribute 12 more portions at this next donation. THANK YOU.

☺️ This is a reminder that if you’re able to participate, every little bit helps. $2.50 provides one portion of bread such as a half-size loaf of sourdough or three English muffins or a couple of large brioche buns.

👌 The quality of the goods that the church receives from Honest Breads for redistribution to the community is THE SAME as what you might receive if you place a preorder:

👍 Same reliable, local ingredients.
👍 Same loving artisan methods.
👍 Same individual hand shaping.
👍 Same baking to perfection in my European stone oven.

🥖 The only difference is that this bread will be enjoyed by a neighbor who simply cannot afford it right now.

👏 But thanks to you, they will receive the same clean, nutritious, lovingly made bread with the same dignity and care that we all deserve.

Eat well.

Break bread.

🔗 To participate, kindly Venmo your contribution to (please note there is no period or any other symbol in the handle; beware of scammers!).

🚨 IMPORTANT ‼️ At the time of remittance, type “food drive”, “Manna House”, “church donation” or anything that clearly earmarks your contribution for this specific purpose.

Honest Breads receives many unspecified donations, and those are directed to the World Central Kitchen fund, to which I have so far donated $10,000 from bread sales and from your contributions and tips. THANK YOU for your endless generosity!

If you don’t clarify where you want your donation to go, it will be added to the next WCK contribution.

Any donations arriving too late or exceeding my baking capacity for this month’s drive will be added to the next drive. 🗓️

📣 Donors will receive a special mention on an Honest Breads LLC post on Saturday.

There aren’t enough words to thank you. 🤗

Erm… check out #4 🤣 Does the author know something I don’t…? 🧐

✋ “Raise your hand when you’re ready!”

🤭 Please don’t follow this trick as scientific advice; I got this in my inbox and thought to share because it was cute, especially if you think of taping a few fingers down 🤣

Why is it not reliable as a measure of readiness? This experiment does not take into account the size of the glove, the amount of culture, the temperature of the flour, water and seed culture or the ambient temperature. Those variables will yield different results if changed.

To know when your starter is ready, watch its growth: once it has stopped rising and begins to fall ever so slightly, it’s at peak activity and ready to either go into dough or to be fed.

If you use it too soon, the yeast won’t be at full strength yet. If you leave it too long, the lactic acid bacteria will lower the pH beyond what’s ideal.

Eat well.
Feed better.
Have fun baking but always trust the science!

Did you indulge yesterday? Leave any for today?

I meant to have one bite and devoured the whole muffin in one go. There was no other way.

🏫 Today marks, in Harford County, the start to a brand new school year.

🧒 The kids will be making new friends, finding new challenges, honing new skills, looking forward to new celebrations.

👨‍🏫 The teachers will spend hundreds of hours inside and outside the classroom planning, coordinating, directing, redirecting, encouraging and hopefully laughing often with their students.

🧓 The parents will be feeling a mixture of relief, lonesomeness, pride, worry, curiosity.

🤗 And then there’s the janitors, the office staff, the bus drivers, the police, the caterers, the counselors, the volunteers… Thousands of people contributing to the school system.

And do you know what each one of them will be doing every day, multiple times a day?

😋 EATING, hopefully well, to fuel all those dreams and efforts.

Eating well begins with natural ingredients, fresh foods, minimal processing and an adequate nutritional balance.

Eat well.
Feed better.
Happy New Year 🫶🏻
