The Sustainable Baker

Do we need new grains because of climate change?


Listen Later

Cakes, pies, bread, you name it – there’s perhaps no ingredient more central to American baking than flour. But what does climate change have in store for wheat? And are we going to need new or different grains because of climate change? Host Caroline Saunders investigates, talking with Dr. Stephen Jones of the WSU Bread Lab and Dr. Tessa Peters of the Land Institute. And she shares a recipe for perennial-grown Kernza bread, available on www.sustainablebaker.com.
