Bread is within the world of side dishes that what ultimately makes the nostalgic meal worth reliving. After all, the garnish and accompaniment make the meal whole and that’s why food-lovers around the world say; fine dining makes a promising start with a breadbasket that contains warm freshly baked artisan breads, such as our Jogging bread (multigrain), Rustica loaf (dark rye), or a delicious Italian Ciabatta (white bread).

Bread is one of the oldest foods known to man and has been a staple food for over 5,000 years. It even has the biblical name of The Staff of Life. Some 8,000 years ago man made flour by crushing grains between two stones. The flour was mixed with water and the paste was dried in the sun, making bread. In time a bake stone was used to bake a risen loaf and in time dough-making techniques added to a palette rich in taste and variety. Artisana embarked on a journey and rediscovered old methods and recipes to produce bread in traditional manner and bring out the full flavor of the ingredients.
