This past Friday, January 8th, I went to the CBC studios in Ottawa to be interviewed live on C’est ça la vie. Fun, fun, fun! They invited me on the show to talk about what I do: bake bread with folks in their homes.
I brought a bit of bread that I had the night before. Actually, it was early that morning. I had just returned home from a day long shoot for a still-secret-as-yet-unsigned-new-food TV show. It was one in the morning and I was booked for a 6:30 a.m. train. I checked my e-mail just before hitting the sack. Bad idea…Sarah the friendly researcher from the show wrote me to ask if I could please bring some bread with me for the interview, the host was insisting on having something yummy to show on camera during the interview. All right then. Lucky I had some dough in the fridge. Equal parts AP and Moulin Légaré 85% whole wheat. Yummy, yummy. So I shaped it into sticks (rolled in a blend of fennel, sunflower, cumin, sesame, and poppy seeds) and cute round buns. I also made square English muffin-looking breads cooked on a griddle. Nice! Okay, now it was time for bed, or else I was gonna look like a zombie on camera.
Philippe Schnobb, the host of the show, seemed genuinely fascinated with the breads and the fact that they can be (and were) made at home in a regular oven, with no specialized equipment. That’s right Mr. Schnobb, anybody can make nice bread at home!

Ce vendredi 8 janvier, je me suis rendu à Ottawa, aux studios de
Radio-Canada pour une entrevue en direct à l’émission C’est ça la vie. Quel plaisir! Ils m’ont invité pour jaser de ce que j’aime beaucoup, beaucoup faire : boulanger avec les gens dans leur cuisine à la maison. Si vous avez un p’tit moment, allez voir le clip.
