I asked Katie Quinn the most important question in regards to French bread in this episode. Does Katie cut her baguette with a knife or break it apart. This is a contentious topic amongst the French.
Katie Quinn is an accomplished TV host, YouTube, and author of Wine, Cheese, and Bread which is one of my favorite books lately. Katie took time out from her life in Italy to talk to us all about French bread as the book is all about the art of fermentation in the UK, Italy, and France.
Today’s topic on Fabulously Delicious is one that is as much about France as Vegemite is to Australians or a Taco is to Mexicans it’s bread. From the baguette to yes sourdough we discuss it all with Katie Quinn.
The place Katie mentioned that she chatted with for the book was Poilâne Bakery in Paris - https://www.poilane.com
