Daniel Jordà and Worldwide Bread

Daniel Jordà, without any doubt, is a bread alchemist. Few things in this world resist him and many others appear because of his hands.


His motto (Love is in the Bread) is something related to what his creations cause. Creations that go to Michelin starred restaurants. 15 restaurants with star have or had Panes Creativos, Daniel Jordà's bakery, bread. The showcooking was good to explain how he began his personal project: he took the sunday specials of newspapers and next week called all restaurants that appear there. Once contacted, he offered a bread for its cooking and sent some samples. This was the way Panes Creativos started.


In his bakery, different bread from all around the world is baked. This is because people who arrive close to him to learn. The ones who enter there have a petition from Jordà: show me to bake bread from the place you come. So, it came Babka, a delicious preparation with jewish origins, made with chocolate and cinnamon. It is quite popular in the United States.


Also, he bakes a venezuelan preparation typical of Christmas time. Inside, it has ham, olives and raisins.


Okaido, his last creation, is a japanese bread product. Very fluffy.


Panetone is, for Daniel Jordà, the most difficult challenge for a baker, because it is a preparation, from sour dough, with so many fermentation hours: until 3 days it can be fermenting.


At the end, coming back home, he has created a chocolate "coca" that wants to recover the traditional snack of bread with chocolate, but in one piece. It is bread with more than 100% of hidratation.

Lots of delicious bread slices!
