What’s up y’all! [u/ajp12290](u/ajp12290) here! I baked sourdough professionally for a decade, bagels for 5 or so, French and non French pastry throughout, and have made ice cream professionally for years on and off as well! Over the years I’ve posted tons of various bread animals, sourdough loaves, French pastry, stoner cookies, and more recently a lot of homemade pasta! After breaking my shoulder multiple times and undergoing multiple surgeries and procedures I had to figure out a way to modify the baking in my life with major limits and restrictions while navigating through daily pain and pinched nerves. Though I can’t bake in bulk anymore and therefore am very limited on the professional scale, Ive started making pasta (like woven ravioli) and other ambitious dishes at home since I can only manage small batch these days and always look to keep challenging myself creatively. Currently I make pastry and work ovens one day a week and make ice cream full time for Goldie’s Bagel and Sparkys Homemade Ice Cream in Columbia, Missouri and next year I hope to finally have a years in the making bread animal pop up called “Bread in Captivity”. I don’t have a food blog or anything but I do post a lot of baking/ice cream/food stuff just for fun on my personal instagram if you wanna follow along just for the kicks @reggaetony_danza AMA!!   submitted by   /u/ajp12290 [link]   [comments]
