Breads

Daily Bread Schedule

 

Every day we bake white, wheat, anadama, and white sourdough bread.

In addition to our daily breads, we also offer a “baker’s choice” of speciality breads. Baker’s decide on this flavor the night before. Frequently in the rotation are: oatmeal molasses, honey oat, sunflower oat, herb, black pepper parmesan, and multigrain. 

If you would like to special order bread please call us with 1-2 days notice to see what’s possible.

We proudly bake with unbleached, unbromated King Arthur flour.

Many of our breads contain honey or molasses for a hint of sweetness. Despite a little sugah, our breads are significantly less sweet than the average store-bought bread. In most of our breads (particularly the more savory breads) the sugar merely acts as a food source for the yeast, rather than a sweetener. 

All breads contain active dry yeast with the exception of our white sourdough, which is naturally leavened.

We do not have have rolls as part of our daily rotation. We can make 3oz dinner rolls or 5oz sandwich rolls to order.
