The Bread Code

Gluten Tag, I'm Hendrik - a passionate sourdough nerd with a mission to enable everyone around the world to bake delicious bread at home. I’m obsessed with understanding the science behind each recipe, and the name theBread.code(); originates from my background as a software engineer. My goal is to democratize baking by showing people that you don’t need expensive tools to make amazing bread. With the right techniques and knowledge, anyone can bake great bread on a budget, because I believe bread around the world can always be improved.
