PretzelRoll 

Our Pretzel Roll is the newest addition to our bread menu. It was inspired by traditional German pretzel bread. Pretzels have been an integral part of German baking traditions for centuries and is still important through present day. Pretzel bread is a staple in German bakeries and accompany many meals. Throughout Germany pretzels are used in various traditions and festivals from holiday and religious celebrations to it’s own festival.

We celebrate pretzel bread with our own special recipe of unbleached all-purpose flour, coarse rye flour, yeast, filtered water, agave syrup, salt and unsalted butter. The crust is brushed with a baking soda wash to caramelize it for that rich mahogany colored finish. It is then heavily sprinkled with sesame seeds, poppy seeds and coarse salt. The interior is chewy, making it a meal of its own simply dipped in mustard or spread with flavored butters. It’s a wonderful sandwich bread, a perfect vessel for holding juicy contents.

When we introduced the pretzel roll, we always planned to use it as a sandwich bread. Many sandwich cafes are looking for alternative rolls to showcase unique sausages, cured meats and artisan cheeses. However, the draw to the roll as it’s own meal is undeniable. Enjoy as a picnic bread this summer with sliced meats, local cheeses and a favorite Seattle ale or rosé. Get out and gather with friends! Summer is coming!
