A long, cool rise on our living levain, shaped by hand and baked overnight — this is the loaf you’ll unwrap.


Black-sesame pretzel sticks and a bowl of smashed avocado — the lunchbox trick.
French T65 bread flour, levain (flour, water), black sesame paste, butter, sugar, honey, milk powder, heavy cream, black sesame seeds, sea salt, food-grade lye (for pretzel bath). That's the whole list — raised on our own hand-fed levain. Contains wheat, milk, sesame.
Every bake is baked fully overnight, then flash-frozen at its peak the same morning. Freezing pauses it at the exact moment it left the oven — a few minutes of reheating brings that moment back.
3–4 min at 325°F if you want the shell snappy again. Fine at room temperature.
Airtight tin on the counter, up to a week — these are the road-trip survivors of the lineup.
Snack straight, or dip — whipped avocado, hummus, soft cheese. Built for the lunchbox.
