Baking Bad
All of our apprentice bakers have posted images online of their first attempts at baking sourdough bread, and somewhere in Brisbane’s West End, chef Margot is enjoying the results. Julianna and Duncan take advantage of Skype to support each other between classes, and Margot is back on form as she takes the students through the process again, helping them to improve as the dough proves. Pun intended.
