Sourdough Batard

Similar to the Country White Sourdough, our sourdough batard exemplifies classical baking tradition with meticulous attention to fermentation and technique. This distinctive oval loaf develops its character through extended cold proofing, yielding a robust, mahogany-hued crust with pronounced scoring patterns. The interior reveals an irregular, well-developed crumb structure with excellent moisture retention. Wild yeast and bacterial cultures create layered flavor complexity—earthy undertones complemented by subtle acidity and mild sweetness. Made exclusively from flour, water, salt, and our proprietary starter culture, this batard delivers the depth and digestibility that distinguish naturally leavened bread from commercial alternatives.
