Learning baguette making at La Boulangerie Le Prêt à Porter

In Naha, I continued Bread Whispers by learning to make baguettes at La Boulangerie Le Prêt à Porter. The encounter extends the project’s exchanges with bakers beyond Gwangju and Frankfurt, following practical knowledge from one kitchen and place to another.

A record of the exchange

I designed and made the certificate myself, then asked the baker at La Boulangerie Le Prêt à Porter who taught me baguette-making to sign it. Dated 16 December 2024, it records the skill and the learning exchange.
