Our guest this week is Kathy High from Bay City Kitchen.
Kathy High is a former Connecticut yankee and current pie enthusiast, with childhood training in why currants belong in jam and how Mark Twain handled conversation flow at dinner parties. Like most classically trained professional bakers, she cut her teeth in careers as a trainer for Borders Books and Music and multiple positions in museum education. After a stint in Atlanta battling kudzu and the challenges of catering in Georgia, a chance encounter with a craigslist ad brought her and her partner to the Pacific Northwest. Ten years, one million bagels, multiple tryouts for team USA for the Coupe du Monde de la Boulangerie and a pandemic later, she and her professional partner, chef Derek McCarthy, opened Bay City Kitchen on Tillamook Bay. Kathy spends her time making more pastries, lavishing affection on her cats, fostering native plants and exploring the joys of coast time. .When in doubt, she brings the pie.
