About me: I started baking 35 years ago, but dived into the world of artisan bread baking just 7 years ago. I make 2-4 loaves a week, the multigrain soaker from Hamelman's book being my obsession this past year. I love levains, but try different techniques to accommodate my busy schedule - I've got an hour+ commute each way every day to my job in St. Paul, MN, and my husband and I are also building a small grass-fed beef operation. Our farm is Bull Brook Keep, in Clear Lake, Wisconsin, www.bronxtobarn.com.

Favorite cookbook: Jeffrey Hamelman's

Favorite recipe: Whole-wheat bread w a Multigrain Soaker
