SORRY, CLOSED NOVEMBER 17-18

 

With regrets, we will not make it home in time to open this weekend. Sorry for any inconvenience. Also, historically we have been closed the weekend after Thanksgiving (and there will be no bread Friday next week), but we will confirm one way or another in next week’s post.

Meanwhile, Janice will be able to help with any “wine emergencies” during bread pickup on 11/17.

Friday Bread Pickup This Week

Dried Cranberry Walnut – Made with a nice mix of bread flour and freshly milled buckwheat and whole wheat flours. Orange juice and olive oil are a unique combination in this bread that add flavor and keep a soft crumb, then loaded up with dried cranberries and toasted walnuts. Makes great toast– $5/loaf

Flax Seed Currant Ciabatta – Made with an overnight poolish that ferments some of the flour and water before being mixed with bread flour, whole wheat, and rye flours,  flax seeds, and dried currants. A lot of water makes for a very slack dough that is just cut into pieces, for a really flavorful artisan loaf – $5/piece

and pastry this week…

Chocolate Croissants – A traditional laminated french pastry made with a bit of sourdough and another pre-ferment to help strengthen the dough to create the traditional croissant’s honeycomb interior, rolled out and shaped with delicious dark chocolate in the center. – $5/loaf

Island Bakery has developed a lengthy rotation cycle of several dozen breads and pastries. Each Sunday Janice emails the week’s bread offering to her mailing list. Orders received before Wednesday will be available for pickup at the wine shop each Friday from 4:00 – 5:30 pm. Go to Contact us to get on the bread email list.

 

 

Happy Thanksgiving!

 

Wishing all of you in our extended wine shop family a warm and cozy Thanksgiving, and looking forward to seeing you all soon!
