Thanks for Joining Us!
Welcome to Proofed, a newsletter for bakers. With each installment, we’ll give you a collection of the things that have piqued our team’s interest. Here’s what’s been proofing for the month of May! A lot of articles cross our workbench each month, here are a few that we think are worthy of a click!
The Perfect Score
We consider scoring a loaf of bread to be an art form. Bakerpedia goes beyond the aesthetic, and give us some interesting information about this technique!
What Comes Next
Congrats! You pursued your dream of going to culinary school and have just graduated, but now begs the question what comes next? The Kitchn shares some great advice for recent grads, given by those already living the dream.
Here’s a quick look at what our team is reading!
Written by Jim Collins, “Good to Great” highlights what separates high performing companies apart from the rest. This includes an overview of management strategies and company culture policies.
Why We Recommend It
“Good to Great looks for what the most successful companies have in common. The findings are surprisingly basic, and often adaptable to our business.”
