What We Do
Our bakery specializes in crafting a variety of all-natural sourdough baked goods, including ciabatta, focaccia, classic European breads, dinner rolls, and the perfect pizza dough. At the heart of our creations is a commitment to purity: no preservatives, dough conditioners, or artificial ingredients. Instead, we embrace traditional artisan bread-making techniques, with a natural sourdough starter at the core. This allows for a slow, natural fermentation process, unveiling layers of deep, sophisticated flavors.
What Is Sourdough?
Our sourdough bread starts with a beautifully simple yet powerful natural leavening agent – the sourdough starter. This living, fermented culture is a blend of just water and flour, evolving over time to impart unique flavors. In our bakery, we honor the age-old tradition of natural leavening to let the artistry of slow fermentation, precise proportions, and balanced hydration shine through.When it comes to health and taste, our sourdough stands out from conventional grocery store bread. We are committed to baking without common preservatives and additives often misleadingly marked as ‘natural’. The truly natural fermentation process of sourdough aids in quicker gluten breakdown, making our breads easier to digest. While the live cultures in the sourdough starter are not present in the finished bread (due to baking), the lactic acid bacteria involved in the sourdough process can produce beneficial compounds that remain in the bread. These compounds can have probiotic-like effects on gut health. The fermentation process also helps to pre-digest gluten, which can make sourdough bread easier to digest for some people compared to regular bread. Furthermore, natural sourdough breads typically have a lower glycemic index, making them a healthier choice for maintaining steady blood sugar levels. Indulge in the wholesome, rich flavors of our natural sourdough – where every loaf is a testament to purity, health, and the timeless art of baking!
