All of nature depends on enzymes. They are critical to successful fermentation, but they function well beyond the bench. They exist in our bodies and are essential for plant photosynthesis. Understanding the science behind these vital components that serve as catalysts for biological processes, we can better control what is happening within our dough, and all around us. 

Join us with Etienne Thierry of Lallemand Baking to explore the ways enzymes support our baking work, and how to successfully leverage them.
