with Axel Schmitt
Welcome to the world of bread, where tradition and innovation strike a unique balance! Your host is Axel Schmitt, World Baker of the Year, bread sommelier, popular TV-baker and renowned for his research on ‘Sonic Sourdough’, a sourdough which is enhanced by exposure to music. He found that treating the sourdough with soundwaves allowed for exceptionally tasty flavours to develop, which drove both media attention and a demand for Axel’s popular baked goods.
In his online course, Axel will show you how you too can create amazing bakery products—regardless of whether you are a complete beginner or a seasoned home baker. His philosophy is: baking is like music; if everything harmonizes, the result can be something great.
What can you expect? More than 20 easy, ingenious recipes, amongst them sourdough bread, baguette, pizza dough and even gluten-free variations. Axel leads you through the artful world of baking: from the basics of sourdough on to helpful equipment to insider tips he perfected over the years while honing his baking skills. The recipes are optimized so that they always turn out right, without any complicated techniques or expensive appliances.
Axel’s course is not only meant to instruct, but also to invite you to discover and savour bread as a cultural asset. With passion, humour and his unique style that marries tradition and modernity, he passes his knowledge on to you.
