There is a place for cannabis alongside many classic culinary traditions, and it’s going to be very exciting to see how the community here in Los Angeles creates an entirely new category of dining experiences.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_132762\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-132762\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/C2K-demo-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Coreen Carroll and Stephanie Hua doing a recipe demo from their Edibles cookbook at the Crop-to-Kitchen Winter Meet-Up. \u003ccite>(mymilligram.com)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Morgan adds: “The importance of having an organization like C2K, which is led by some of the leading minds in the culinary cannabis industry, taking up the charge of working with lawmakers to ensure a path for sensible regulations, [and] will pave the way for a culinary cannabis industry where chefs and restaurants can safely serve food alongside cannabis, create perfectly-dosed gourmet dishes, and open up new avenues for premium edibles that more closely resemble food than candy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_132764\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-132764 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/salo-series-PDH-party-pic-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pot d'Huile's infused olive oil was a popular guest at Yana Gilbuena's Horno Buena kamayan feast. \u003ccite>(mymilligram.com)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>SF has a ways to go before we can plunk down at a cannabis café and order avocado toast with 3mg of cannabis-infused olive oil drizzled over it — with current California Department of Health regulations, we can’t even add CBD oil from hemp — but if you want to see it all happen, now is the time to get involved.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_132768\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-132768\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/bbw-oysters-800x570.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"570\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Guests could finish freshly shucked oysters with cannabis herb oil at Big Bad Wolf's third anniversary party. \u003ccite>(mymilligram.com)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, here are some of the inspiring women to watch who are leading and shaping our local cannabis culinary scene, from chefs to event hosts to content creators — meet the makers of our future canna restaurant industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_132770\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-132770\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/thu-infused-dessert-sous-weed-800x1067.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"1067\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dessert at a collaborative Thursday Infused night with Sous Weed . \u003ccite>(mymilligram.com)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Coreen Carroll: \u003c/b>\u003ca href=\"https://cannaisseurseries.com\">\u003cb>The Cannaisseur Series\u003c/b>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_132772\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-132772\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/03/cannaisseurseries_094_rgb_Castro-800x533.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chef Coreen Carroll keeps many things lit at her Cannaisseur Series events. \u003ccite>(Ashleigh Castro)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>A trailblazer in SF's cannabis dinner scene, nothing beats the party vibe and lively, diverse crowd of a Cannaisseur Series dinner or brunch.

You’ll enjoy a multi-course tasting menu that offers a modern take on Korean dishes and flavors, with California seasonality and quality ingredients woven in. There’s only one seating for dinner Thu–Sat for 16 diners who have booked a ticket through \u003ca href=\"https://www.exploretock.com/maum/\">Tock\u003c/a> ($175, and $100 for the excellent wine pairings, which you’ll want to do). The restaurant is basically one big private dining room, with a long wood table, and you can peek into a top-of-the-line kitchen at the back of the room. The space is full of other natural materials and colors, and it’s very minimalist but still welcoming (and very stylish).\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_131425\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-131425\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2018/11/chef-mike-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Consultant Charles Chen and chef Michael Kim. \u003ccite>(tablehopper.com)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Maum was originally a private dining experience for guests of owners Brian and Grace Koo, and then they decided to open it as a part-time restaurant. They brought on consultant Charles Chen, now a managing partner, who has worked with Tartine Manufactory, Stonemill Matcha, and other projects on their openings and operations. The chef is Michael Kim, whom I met when he was the opening chef de cuisine at Namu Gaji in San Francisco — he has also worked at Redd and SPQR. His wife, Meichih Kim, has worked at Benu and Per Se, and is the mastermind behind the fabulous desserts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Upon arriving, you’ll be greeted with Champagne and a wave of canapés, like a chestnut tartlet with a cloud-like filling and plump oysters topped with kimchi granita (but a bit too icy). It’s similar to a cocktail party, with a chance to mingle with some of the guests you’re going to be dining next to over the next couple of hours.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Honestly, the opening courses were fine but didn’t completely wow me — I think the kitchen could push the flavors and executions more into the “whoa” zone. As an example, while \u003ci>yookhwe\u003c/i> (steak tartare) is a Korean dish I adore, the presentation here only seemed updated with the elegant linen it was served upon (and the high-quality beef) — it felt like a missed opportunity to do something really unexpected or fun.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_131427\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-131427\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2018/11/sablefish-800x1201.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"1201\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sablefish, radish, gochujang. \u003ccite>(tablehopper.com)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>By the time you silently glide one of the immensely comfortable, black leather, mid-century modern chairs out and sit down, you will have noticed many of the beautiful plates and stemware and bowls during the opening service, but now it’s really going to be an aesthetic parade. You’ll want to bring home the wood sake cups that are so delicate they can practically fly out of your hand, and the other serve-ware is so elegant and obviously chosen with care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While each course and wine pairing are announced for all to hear at once, it’s done in a way that is unobtrusive and not meant to interrupt the many conversations at the table. We had people celebrating birthdays, a couple from Marin on date night, a large family gathering, and, of course, some Silicon Valley folks — overall, the crowd was more mature than your usual SF hotspot.

It featured the most exquisite layered cubes of seared and fatty beef short-rib, served with bouquets of lettuce leaves that you use to wrap up the beef in, along with a dollop of spicy jang sauce, and a piece peeled off the elegant cube of kimchi (which you’ll want to request more of, because you need to pour some of the juice from it over the brisket-kimchi rice, which is presented like a paella). I’d book this dinner on this course alone — I’ve never had galbi come even close to this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dessert was a fun show, with delightful madeleines, mochi, mignardises, fresh fruit, and more, plus cake to bring home and enjoy later (good thing, because you’ll be stuffed). The tasting menu offers an extensive amount of food — while some may complain of still being hungry after many tasting menus, that is definitely not the case here. In fact, I even brought home my last bites of the rice and galbi, which proved to be the most divine base to my fried eggs the next morning.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>A Vibrant Makeover and Tasting Menu Built for Wine Lovers at Indian Paradox\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://indianparadoxsf.com\">Indian Paradox\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/1f6ugYz9KS12\">258 Divisadero St., San Francisco\u003c/a>\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> \u003c/span>\u003cbr>\nDinner served Tue-Thu 5pm-10pm and Fri-Sat 5pm-11pm, Sat brunch 11am–2pm\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_131429\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-131429\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2018/11/Indian-Paradox_Interior-02_11.07.18_Grace-Sager-Photography-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/11/Indian-Paradox_Interior-02_11.07.18_Grace-Sager-Photography-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/11/Indian-Paradox_Interior-02_11.07.18_Grace-Sager-Photography-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/11/Indian-Paradox_Interior-02_11.07.18_Grace-Sager-Photography-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/11/Indian-Paradox_Interior-02_11.07.18_Grace-Sager-Photography-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/11/Indian-Paradox_Interior-02_11.07.18_Grace-Sager-Photography-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/11/Indian-Paradox_Interior-02_11.07.18_Grace-Sager-Photography-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/11/Indian-Paradox_Interior-02_11.07.18_Grace-Sager-Photography-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/11/Indian-Paradox_Interior-02_11.07.18_Grace-Sager-Photography-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/11/Indian-Paradox_Interior-02_11.07.18_Grace-Sager-Photography-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/11/Indian-Paradox_Interior-02_11.07.18_Grace-Sager-Photography-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The vibrant new interior at Indian Paradox will make it your happy place. \u003ccite>(Grace Sager)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Three years ago, Kavitha Raghavan opened \u003ca href=\"https://indianparadoxsf.com\">\u003cb>Indian Paradox\u003c/b>\u003c/a> on Divisadero — her petite wine bar featuring wine pairings with Indian street food dishes (chaats) — and now the space has received a stylish redecoration and colorful upgrade.

The restaurant is basically one big private dining room, with a long wood table, and you can peek into a top-of-the-line kitchen at the back of the room.

They brought on consultant Charles Chen, now a managing partner, who has worked with Tartine Manufactory, Stonemill Matcha, and other projects on their openings and operations. The chef is Michael Kim, whom I met when he was the opening chef de cuisine at Namu Gaji in San Francisco — he has also worked at Redd and SPQR. His wife, Meichih Kim, has worked at Benu and Per Se, and is the mastermind behind the fabulous desserts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Upon arriving, you’ll be greeted with Champagne and a wave of canapés, like a chestnut tartlet with a cloud-like filling and plump oysters topped with kimchi granita (but a bit too icy).

Whether it’s hardware, software, or somewhere in between, surviving in the Bay as an entrepreneur is a tough thing to do. And when it comes to food, it’s even tougher. Faced with a mountain-high pile of permitting and regulations to figure out, skyrocketing rent costs, and increasingly difficult to hire skilled labor—all on top of a razor-thin profit margin—making a food startup work is not an easy thing to do.

Here are some basic differences between commercially available flours and the locally grown, stone-milled flours you’ll find at the farmers market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are some basic differences between commodity flour and stone-milled, artisan flours you’ll find at the farmers market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Commodity flour:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Commodity flour is produced through a heavily industrialized milling process designed to yield hundreds of tons of high-extraction (refined) flour daily. Industry millers are artists at blending wheats from many sources to produce extremely consistent flours in terms of color, strength, and baking qualities for large volume commercial bakers. However, due to multiple levels of aggregation between farm and mill, it is nearly impossible to trace the source of the grain milled in a commodity mill.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>The distinguishing characteristics of individual wheat varieties blended to make commodity flour, such as flavor, color, and nutritional value, can be lost in the commodity milling process.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>It can contain additives to enhance or adjust dough and baking performance and improve the shelf life of stored flour.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Most of the grain’s flavor, nutrition, and enzymes that help digestibility are in the bran and germ, which are removed from refined white flour. Commodity mills typically reduce whole-grain kernels into up to 20 fractions that are sifted for different applications.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>In contrast, stone-milled artisan flour:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Artisan millers often work closely with farmers, and pay a fair price for their grain while confirming how sustainably it is grown. Identity-preserved flour means all the grain milled is traceable by variety and by location.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Milling varietal or heritage flours makes it possible to highlight the unique flavors and personalities of different grains. Emphasizing heritage grains brings badly needed genetic diversity and distinct flavor profiles into the equation.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Small mills rarely bleach or add conditioners or chemicals to the flour.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Artisan flour is more likely to be whole grain and thus more nutritious and flavorful, containing a high percent of bran and germ.

Flours can be designated by how they are milled, by how they are used, by color, or by whether the grain is intact. Here are a few important designations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Whole-grain flour:\u003c/strong> Flour containing all of the grain’s original components (bran, germ, and endosperm), in the same proportions as found in the unmilled grain kernel. Whole-grain flour can be made from any grain as long as it contains all the components of the intact grain kernel. For example, \u003cem>whole-wheat flour\u003c/em> is a subset of whole-grain flour, and refers to flour milled exclusively from whole wheat berries. Though whole-grain flours can offer higher protein and gluten than refined (or sifted) flours, high percentages of bran and germ impede development of gluten that make for elastic dough.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Refined flour:\u003c/strong> Flour that has been sifted to remove most or all of the bran and germ. Flour not labeled as 100% whole-wheat flour has had at least some amount of the bran and germ removed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Straight flour:\u003c/strong> Traditional millers’ term for flour containing all the endosperm after the bran and germ has been removed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Patent flour:\u003c/strong> The most highly refined flour, and deemed the highest quality flour by commercial bakers. It is made from the center portion of the endosperm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Clear flour:\u003c/strong> What remains of straight flour after patent flour is separated out. It is darker and coarser than patent flour, but with more flavor and nutrition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>All-purpose flour:\u003c/strong> 11.5-13% protein. It can be used for most breads and general baking. Commercial all-purpose flour is milled from hard red wheat, which is sifted to produce white flour. Always choose unbleached flour when available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Bread flour:\u003c/strong> 12.5-15% protein. Commercial bread flour is usually refined patent flour, to provide maximum elasticity and elongation for yeast breads, pizza, and highly elastic doughs for laminated pastries (croissants) strudels and the like.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Pastry flour:\u003c/strong> Protein as low as 9%. A fancy clear flour milled from soft white wheat. It develops less gluten than other flours, producing tender short pastries (cookies, biscuits, pie dough) and batters (pancakes, quickbreads, cakes, muffins). Heritage white wheat varieties, which often have lower protein than modern wheat, make exceptional whole-grain pastry flours.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>OO flour:\u003c/strong> Less than 9% protein. Highly refined flour with very low ash (mineral content, indicative of the amount of fiber the flour) of < 0.5%, according to the Italian flour classification system. Low ash makes “Tipo OO” flour extremely elastic and strong despite its low protein. Easy to work, but little flavor or nutrition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_130677\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1500px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-130677\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/capay_mills_wheat.jpg\" alt=\"The wheat fields of Capay Mills\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/capay_mills_wheat.jpg 1500w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/capay_mills_wheat-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/capay_mills_wheat-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/capay_mills_wheat-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/capay_mills_wheat-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/capay_mills_wheat-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/capay_mills_wheat-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/capay_mills_wheat-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/capay_mills_wheat-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/capay_mills_wheat-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/10/capay_mills_wheat-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The wheat fields of Capay Mills \u003ccite>(Capay Mills)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>A Baker’s Guide to Wheat Classes and California Varieties\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Here’s an overview of wheat classes adapted from the \u003ca href=\"https://californiagrains.com/\">California Grains Campaign\u003c/a>.

Usually sifted to remove the dark reddish bran and germ containing tannins and phenolics that add flavor and nutrition to whole-grain flours. \u003cem>California varieties: Summit, Yecoro Rojo, Joaquin Oro, Cal Rojo, Red Fife (heritage).\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Available at Capay Mills:\u003c/em> \u003cstrong>Summit (grown by Frog Hollow Farm).\u003c/strong> A modern hard red wheat spring wheat introduced in 2011, with good baking qualities and good gluten strength typical of red wheat. More richly flavored that most white wheats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Hard White Wheat\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nHard white wheats offer the gluten strength of hard red wheats, but with a more delicate and lighter bran that makes them ideal as whole-grain flours. Like hard reds, hard white wheats are suited for breads, pizzas, bagels, and laminated pastries. \u003cem>California varieties: Patwin, Blanca Grande, Clear White, Cristallo, Blanca Fuerte.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Available at Capay Mills:\u003c/em> \u003cstrong>Patwin.\u003c/strong> A modern hard white spring wheat released by UC Davis in 2006. Patwin has darker bran than Sonora or Wit Wolkering, but offers good baking qualities and loaf volumes. Patwin produces consistent dough strength, and makes an excellent flour for blending or for use by itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Soft White Wheat\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nSoft white wheats produce a softer-textured flour that is usually (though not always) lower protein and primarily used pastry and cake fours. More delicately flavored than red wheats. \u003cem>California varieties: Alpowa, Alturas, Yamhill, Stephens, Sonora (heritage), Foisy (heritage).\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Available at Capay Mills:\u003c/em> \u003cstrong>Foisy.\u003c/strong> A soft white wheat developed in Oregon in 1865. Mildly flavored, with higher-than-average protein for a soft wheat. Should produce excellent batters and pastries, but strong enough for breads as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Durum Wheat\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nDurum wheat is a hard, amber-colored grain that is genetically distinct from common wheat. Durum semolina is a coarse flour milled from refined endosperm, and generally used for pasta. As a whole-grain flour, durum produces richly flavored breads, cakes and traditional Italian cookies. \u003cem>California varieties: Desert King, Kronos, Fortissimo, Durum Iraq (heritage), Blue Beard (heritage), Senatore Cappelli (heritage).\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Available at Capay Mills:\u003c/em> \u003cstrong>Durum (grown by Rancho Llano Seco).\u003c/strong> A robust, hard, golden-colored grain that grows best in Mediterranean climates, durum is related to “ancient grains” and genetically distinct from modern wheats. Its hardness and high protein make durum ideal for pasta, and it is used for breads, cakes and pastries in its native Italy. Durum’s bright color is associated with rich flavor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Heritage Wheat\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nHistorical varieties of wheat that have been adapted over generations to suit local growing conditions and cooking tastes. Taller and less productive than modern varieties developed after 1950, heritage wheats bring needed genetic diversity, and are often more tolerant of poor soils and drought stress. \u003cem>California varieties: Sonora, Chiddam Blanc de Mars, Wit Wolkering, Red Fife, Foisy, Blue Beard Durum, India Jammu.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Available at Capay Mills:\u003c/em> \u003cstrong>Sonora.\u003c/strong> Likely the first wheat grown in California, introduced by European explorers to the New World in the 1500s. Very light bran and germ produces a superior quality whole-grain white flour with balanced gluten and rich but light flavor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Wit Wolkering.\u003c/strong> A medium-soft white landrace wheat from South Africa, related to Sonora. Very light bran makes it a great whole-wheat flour for flatbreads and naturally leavened loaves. Dough doesn’t darken on standing.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Ancient Grains\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The earliest cultivated crops, which co-evolved with human civilization.

Industry millers are artists at blending wheats from many sources to produce extremely consistent flours in terms of color, strength, and baking qualities for large volume commercial bakers. However, due to multiple levels of aggregation between farm and mill, it is nearly impossible to trace the source of the grain milled in a commodity mill.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>The distinguishing characteristics of individual wheat varieties blended to make commodity flour, such as flavor, color, and nutritional value, can be lost in the commodity milling process.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>It can contain additives to enhance or adjust dough and baking performance and improve the shelf life of stored flour.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Most of the grain’s flavor, nutrition, and enzymes that help digestibility are in the bran and germ, which are removed from refined white flour. Commodity mills typically reduce whole-grain kernels into up to 20 fractions that are sifted for different applications.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>In contrast, stone-milled artisan flour:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Artisan millers often work closely with farmers, and pay a fair price for their grain while confirming how sustainably it is grown. Identity-preserved flour means all the grain milled is traceable by variety and by location.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Milling varietal or heritage flours makes it possible to highlight the unique flavors and personalities of different grains. Emphasizing heritage grains brings badly needed genetic diversity and distinct flavor profiles into the equation.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Small mills rarely bleach or add conditioners or chemicals to the flour.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Artisan flour is more likely to be whole grain and thus more nutritious and flavorful, containing a high percent of bran and germ.

He’s known for his beastmode sandwiches at nearby DeliBoard, and this is his latest outpost on Mission, which originally opened with wicked East Coast-style breakfast sandwiches and bagels. This summer, he pivoted the business to evening hours (Wed–Fri 6pm–9pm), and is renting out the space for private events and pop-ups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With the new evening hours comes a new, rotating menu, and the star of the show is his double cheeseburger, topped with white and yellow American cheese (no shame here!), shredduce (shredded lettuce), BB (Board Burger) sauce (it’s a creamier and almost ranch-y version of a Thousand Island dressing, with extra pickle juice and less ketchup to boost the acidity), and thickly cut pickles that they slice fresh, which also helps cut through the overall richness (these are full dills from Chicago). \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mesnick is using Golden Gate Meat Company’s burger blend, which gets a nice sear on the edges of the patties (they have a kind of craggy edge instead of being perfectly formed, which yields different and pleasing textures as you eat your way through the burger). The Panorama bun (you can choose sesame or plain) holds up until the very end, which isn’t an easy feat considering the heft of this artfully and thoughtfully constructed burger. You’ll want to grab a few napkins. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The burger is more than enough, but if you’re in a “take no prisoners” mode, there are waffle fries ($8), which come with BB sauce, but who can say no to Cheez Whiz ($2)? Extra good with waffle fries. One night, you may have the option to graze on some nachos ($12) with carne asada or spicy Thai buffalo wings ($12) with bleu cheese.

He’s known for his beastmode sandwiches at nearby DeliBoard, and this is his latest outpost on Mission, which originally opened with wicked East Coast-style breakfast sandwiches and bagels. This summer, he pivoted the business to evening hours (Wed–Fri 6pm–9pm), and is renting out the space for private events and pop-ups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With the new evening hours comes a new, rotating menu, and the star of the show is his double cheeseburger, topped with white and yellow American cheese (no shame here!), shredduce (shredded lettuce), BB (Board Burger) sauce (it’s a creamier and almost ranch-y version of a Thousand Island dressing, with extra pickle juice and less ketchup to boost the acidity), and thickly cut pickles that they slice fresh, which also helps cut through the overall richness (these are full dills from Chicago). \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mesnick is using Golden Gate Meat Company’s burger blend, which gets a nice sear on the edges of the patties (they have a kind of craggy edge instead of being perfectly formed, which yields different and pleasing textures as you eat your way through the burger). The Panorama bun (you can choose sesame or plain) holds up until the very end, which isn’t an easy feat considering the heft of this artfully and thoughtfully constructed burger. You’ll want to grab a few napkins. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The burger is more than enough, but if you’re in a “take no prisoners” mode, there are waffle fries ($8), which come with BB sauce, but who can say no to Cheez Whiz ($2)?

Every week, Pen talks to movers and shakers about how the Bay Area shapes what they create, and how they shape the place we call home.","imageSrc":"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Rightnowish-Podcast-Tile-500x500-1.jpg","imageAlt":"KQED Rightnowish with Pendarvis Harshaw","officialWebsiteLink":"/podcasts/rightnowish","meta":{"site":"arts","source":"kqed","order":"5"},"link":"/podcasts/rightnowish","subscribe":{"npr":"https://www.npr.org/podcasts/721590300/rightnowish","rss":"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/programs/rightnowish/feed/podcast","apple":"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rightnowish/id1482187648","stitcher":"https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/kqed/rightnowish","google":"https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vS1FJTkMxMjU5MTY3NDc4","spotify":"https://open.spotify.com/show/7kEJuafTzTVan7B78ttz1I"}},"jerrybrown":{"id":"jerrybrown","title":"The Political Mind of Jerry Brown","tagline":"Lessons from a lifetime in politics","info":"The Political Mind of Jerry Brown brings listeners the wisdom of the former Governor, Mayor, and presidential candidate.
