I am Dot Baumann. My family ran a small-town bakery for over forty years — I learned the ovens from my father, and I ran the counter until the supermarkets made shops like ours impossible. I never stopped baking. On this channel I show you what a lifetime in front of an oven actually teaches: why the bread at the store is built the way it is, how to keep a sourdough starter alive for decades, the old overnight methods that do the work for you, and what a real loaf costs when you make it yourself. No sponsors, no gadgets, no miracle tricks — just flour, time, and fifty years of knowing the difference. Pull up a chair in my kitchen.
