I will bake bread this Friday, January 21st. As I explained in this week's email to the Bread List, I will be baking fewer types of bread per week while I work on changing some techniques.
This week I will bake multigrain and semolina boules, and pain au levain shaped as boules and baguettes. If you will want bread, send your order to me by email (ag.burnside@gmail.com) no later than noon, Wednesday January 19th.
A few other changes: In attempting to streamline the entire process, I have opted to have the labels printed by a local company. They are a generic label now, with just the bakery logo and name. If you wish to have the full ingredient information, as the labels used to show, just let me know and I will be happy to provide it.
I am interested also in encouraging people to provide their own bags. Paper bags are probably less toxic than plastic ones to the landfill, but waste is waste. Certainly many people will not find it feasible to drop off a reusable bag prior to bake day, but if it does work for you, please feel free to do so. Make certain your name is clearly written on the bag. When you come to pick up your bag, take a nickel per loaf out of the cash box.
