I use bread making as a platform for discussion and collaboration. I have connected with people I never would have spoken to, as they share their memories of making bread with their mothers, grandmothers, fathers, children. It serves as an interview, loosely formatted, between my bread making partner and myself. As we mix the ingredients, we share techniques passed down through loved ones. As the bread rises, we can elaborate on the nuances of our associations, and as we eat it, we enjoy the fruits of our labor and each other’s company.
