Hi Jeremy, good to hear from you.

I am on a quick trip to Melbourne/Victoria, catching up with a few bread people. At the moment I am tearing into an olive bread from a new Melbourne bakery, and feeling very guilty because I wanted to take photos of the cross-section before messing it up. But there is not a suitable knife around and I just want to eat. It has such a lovely structure too, full of plump olives.

Good to see you have a new interview. I'm currently on wireless and having difficulty loading the mp3 file, but will listen later on a hard connection. Actually....the file has loaded now. I will have a listen and get back to you later.

BTW. My PM box is full but I will clear it out when I return from this trip.

Graham

Very nice interview Jeremy. Perhaps you are a little hard on yourself in the closing chat? Chefs can be great bakers! Actually 'fennel raisin' sounds like a chef-conceived recipe. Noel is honest about the compromises of going big. I was at a bakery today where the baker was [i]very carefully[/i] making 100 loaves or so a bake. And then last week I was at an off-shoot of a once small bakery. Now it uses 20 tonne of flour a week and the bakers were running around in a focused frenzy. Such a contrast.

Hmm, Jeremy, you've picked the best time for visiting Paris, all empty, all Parisians stayin at côte d'aZur , and so it may happen, that one by one some boulangeries are closed just the same to me, when I visited Paris first time.
Don't worry, relaxing in the Tuileries at heat of the day is phantastic, watching people from allover the world at Sacré-C?ur in the late evening laughing, playing music or making nonsens or whatever, it's a great feeling of freedom.
You wanna catch your velo next time? As long as I live I havn't baked it.

..and I never got such wonderful croissants and pain au chocolade as I bought in Paris, perhaps in Bretagne, but Paris..I love this city.

He runs no bakers/riders side, but sourdoughers/running side

No but thanks for the link, actually this was back in the early eighties when I was in Germany! Maybe if you know modern art you have heard of my father? http://www.galerie-schloss-mochental.de Shmuel Shapiro

Mochental is only 15 km next to me...

Good to have you back.

Your pix are a sheer torture, Jeremy. I don't think I can bear the description of the tastings.

Jeremy,

Great photos, I love the woodfired oven!

Enjoyed listening to the new interviews also.
