ABOUT ME
MADE TO ORDER • AWARD WINNING • HANDCRAFTED
My sourdough journey started when I decided to revisit my high school baking hobby and picked up a 50 lb bag of flour. From that point I have made multiple sourdough starters and baked goods, won several national baking contests, went to bread camp (yes, it is a real thing), convinced my wife to put a micro bakery oven in our home kitchen, was gifted a 1940s industrial bread slicer (from my kids) and even baked 260 customized mini sourdough bread loaves as guest gifts for my son's wedding. To top it off, I was invited to bake at the Taste of the NFL 2023 Super Bowl event in Phoenix (check out the photo gallery page).
My friends and family love my creations and have provided me with great feedback, in exchange for loaves of bread, to help me improve my craft. They now have pushed me to make this baking portal to offer up for sale my delicious baked goods and allow everyone to share in the dough. I bake items on a limited supply basis to those who may want to try any of the various creations that come to mind and are baked into reality.
Go ahead, Bake My Day!!

BZ BAKING × THE ANARCHIST BAKER × HELP THE HOUSE
BAKING FOR A GOOD CAUSE.
BZ Baking and my new soon to be announced new brand The Anarchist Baker helped support Help the House's annual gala. Help the House is a Minnesota nonprofit dedicated to supporting the people behind the hospitality industry. From chefs and bakers to servers and other restaurant workers, their mission is to provide a safety net and connect those in need with financial, physical, and mental-health resources. We participated by making 300 mini sourdough loaves to provide to all the guests as their parting gift for supporting this great cause.

Helpful tips for storing your sourdough bread
If you are one of the few who does not consume a loaf of bread within a few hours or days and you want to make this sourdough bread experience last until your next purchase...here are some helpful tips for good sourdough storage. First to be clear, your sourdough loaves should be fine for 4-5 days when kept at room temperature. Just pop in your toaster or warm up in your oven and enjoy! But if you are looking to enjoy over a longer period of time, here are some tips for storage:
1. As a general rule, avoid the fridge (fridges are way too dry)!
2. Slice and wrap your loaf in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and store at room temp. Airtight containers will also work.
3. SLICE the loaf and THEN wrap and put into the freezer. Then pull the slices from the freezer, toast and ENJOY!
4. HEAT BEFORE YOU EAT! To re-bake a 2-3-4 day old loaf right back to life, spray the loaf or the half of loaf with a little bit of water and bake it at 325 for about 25-30 minutes.
