  • About

This bread is named in honor of Portland, Oregon and the city’s thriving craft baking scene. A trip to Bridgetown, as it is nicknamed, is incomplete until you visit at least two or three bakeries. Grand Central Baking Company and Pearl Bakery first brought artisan baking to Portland. A second generation includes Essential Baking Company, Ken’s Artisan Bakery, and Little T American Bakery. Little T’s baker is Tim Healea, former U.S. Breadbaking World Cup medalist.
