Rose Lawrence of Red Bread

On this episode, Rose Lawrence, baker, chef, and owner of Red Bread, joins me from her home in Los Angeles. Rose reflects on her beginnings as a Cottage Food baker in Venice, California and how the artisan bread movement has changed since the passage of the California Homemade Food Act (a law which she played an active role in bringing about). She gives advice and resources for home bakers looking to take the leap to becoming a cottage food operator and shares her fermentation mantra for anyone out there feeling a little overwhelmed on their sourdough journey.
