Chanterelle Season, Deep Dish Pizza Bonanza!

We have just received some absolutely magnificent chanterelles from one of our regular customers at the Bakery who happens to have located some very prolific foraging spots this year! An exceptional and seasonal Deep Dish Special is in the making...
Visit us this Saturday, 9/12, to enjoy delicious deep dish pizzas featuring these seductive chanterelles sauteed with shallots!
Who knows what else we might cook up?

September Tomorrow!
If you like Fall, I suppose that is good news, though if you are going back to school soon, facing the end of summer weather and fun, maybe not so much.
Change is always upon us, so with this photo, we bid farewell to the growing days of late summer. A beautiful pitcher filled with gigantic, luscious basil and fragrant rosemary grown by Lacey. Look for it to be a part of this week's bakery offerings, perhaps in the Potato Rosemary bread or as topping on Houlton Deep Dish pizza.

The Univex Floor Mixer

The Univex got fixed a few weeks ago after the motor just stopped running one day. Production went to all the small table top mixers and our customers missed a few of their regular favorites. After a new motor came all the way from New Hampshire and was installed, we were back in business...so far, so good! Here's what the Univex looks like.

Slow Food and Houlton Bakery
Just a short post today -- after taking a look at other blogs I like, it seems a good idea to think about what topics to present and maybe write a story or add our latest specials weekly instead of daily.
Yesterday, when all that quiet work was supposed to be happening, the big dough mixer, that sits on the floor broke, requiring repair service to be called in. No fresh bread for today or maybe tomorrow, unfortunately, though Joe will get a day off I think. A lot of work did get done beforehand and luckily the sticky bun dough was already complete!
Houlton Bakery believes in Slow Food, where great care is taken to prepare foods with all the freshest ingredients by hand and use organic, local produce where possible. There is a lot written about the Slow Food movement, which originated in Italy. We heart the Orange Snail!
