Working Culture Bread – American
The air inside this artisanal bakery is a heady perfume of toasted grain and wild yeast, where golden-crusted batards and rustic rounds are pulled steaming from the oven to line the wooden shelves. Each day brings a new sensory journey through the rhythmic art of fermentation, from the savory depth of caramelized onion and cheese to the bright, citrusy zing of lemon-infused loaves and the warm, sweet embrace of cinnamon raisin.
