Since 2016

I wanted to recreate bread I ate in Europe. It's a personal challenge to bake bread as good if not better than we can buy for a lot less money.

Characteristics

Very active, usually requires just a few hours at room temperature to become bubbly and risen.

I call it Hapa because it's a mix of white and whole wheat, Hapa refers to people of mixed race ancestry like me so it's a personal allusion as well.
