Steve Sullivan of Acme Bread Co.  started making loaves of bread in his dorm room at college. While he visited Europe he carried a  copy of Elizabeth David’s “English Bread & Yeast Cookery.” His taste for bread was inspired by his travels and it was cheap to eat. While attending college  he worked at Alice Waters Chez Panisse, first as a busboy and dishwasher then finally as the boulanger.
An icon in the American renaissance of “artisan” bread baking Steve shares his view with this home baker from the bench to even his baking with Julia Child.If your looking for an honest loaf with some history, check out Steve Sullivan at Acme Bread Co.!
