'Baking is an antidote to the pace of modern life,' reflects baker, photographer and author Aran Goyoaga in her guide to gluten free baking for Homes & Gardens' Menu of the Moment series. 'In a world that’s so fast and digital, baking gives us a chance to make something real, beautiful, nourishing – and to share it.'
Such a slow and nourishing activity is, in Gyoaga's view, particularly perfect for this time of year, when the weather is chilly and most of us feel like retreating into hibernation. 'I’m a homebody,' she explains. 'I look forward to this time – cozying up with blankets, making a fire, and filling the house with the smell of bread.'
