Politics & Prose at Busboys and Poets, Takoma, presents Samuel Fromartz as he discusses his new book In Search of the Perfect Loaf: A Home Baker's Odyssey.
In 2009 The Best Baguette of D.C. title went not to a professional loaf, but to Fromartz’s homemade effort. Bread has always been a passion for this Washington journalist, and in his memoir Fromartz recounts what he’s learned not just about French bread, but also about sourdough, rye, and country wheat, along with the history of grains, fermentation, and bread-making practices around the world.
