Bakery FAQs
Helpful answers about our bread, baking, and ordering.
How long is your sourdough fermented?
We allow about 17 hours of resting and proofing for our sourdough: around 4 hours of room-temperature rests during the folding stage, 12 hours in the refrigerator, and another hour before baking. Mixing, shaping, folding and baking add time to the full process.
Chef Sang chooses our standard fermentation schedule for a balanced sourdough flavor.
Does longer fermentation make your sourdough gluten-free?
No. Fermentation can partially break down gluten proteins, but our wheat sourdough still contains gluten. It is not suitable for people with celiac disease or a wheat allergy. If you have non-celiac gluten sensitivity, we cannot guarantee that you will tolerate it.
Are all your products organic?
No. Not all of our ingredients are organic. We choose organic ingredients when available and source locally when possible, with a focus on quality and flavor.
What flour do you use?
We primarily use French flours from Grands Moulins de Paris, including Tradition T65 and Gruau Rouge T45. T65 and T45 are French classifications based on mineral content. We use T65 for our sourdough and Gruau Rouge T45 for our croissants, which are coming soon.
