With the rise of bread-baking during shelter-in-place, Jewish baker Nick Beitcher, founder of the popup Midnite Bagel and lead bread baker at Tartine, has started his own home baker hotline. “I’m here to help you up your quarantine sourdough game (bread, pizza, pancakes),” he wrote on Instagram. Beitcher is asking for donations from those he helps and will give the proceeds to charities focused on Covid-19 relief. Email him with your baking questions at [email protected].
