About Gregoire Michaud, Chef at Bread Elements
Is bread the staff of life? Bread is a gift and essence of nature.
My name is Gregoire Michaud, I'm a master of brown crusts and aromatic pastry.
I was born in 1975, and was surrounded by nature from my very childhood. And not with a garden, but with original beautiful and mighty trees, flowers and smells. My family still keeps a prosperous farm in Switzerland and grows products and grapes there.
My mother became my teacher in cooking. I was inspired by her example, followed her advice and kept breaking conventional rules. I'm sure she was secretly proud of my freethinking. Although proper doughing, choice of flour and the magic of bread crafting in general is a very conservative business.
