Baked by Tisa Palmer

Tisa has spent 30+ years in food service and management — and years more baking sourdough for her family before Baked on Breezy ever had a name. (The name comes from her street: Breezy Way, in Albany, Oregon.)

This is a professional's kitchen, run small on purpose: batches sized so every loaf gets attention, ingredients she'd serve her own family, and recipes tested at her table and at work before they ever reach the menu.

The care & keeping of your loaf

Good sourdough asks for almost nothing — just a little know-how once it's home. Here's how to keep every slice at its best, and what the slow rise does for you while you're at it.

Keep it at its best

  • Counter, cut-side down. For the first day or two, rest the loaf cut-side down on the board, or keep it in a paper or cotton bread bag at room temperature. The crust is the loaf's own wrapper.
  • Skip the fridge. Refrigeration stales bread faster than the counter does — it's the one place a loaf shouldn't live.
  • Bring back the crunch. Spritz the crust lightly with water and warm the loaf in a 350°F oven for 10–15 minutes. Slices go straight into the toaster.
  • Freeze it sliced. Keeping bread beyond a few days? Slice first, bag it airtight, and freeze for up to three months. Toast slices straight from frozen — no thawing, no waste.
  • Bagels & pretzels. Both are best the day they're baked. Bagels freeze beautifully — and to bring a pretzel back, warm it for five minutes in a 350°F oven, or a few minutes in the air fryer, until it's soft and hot again.

What the slow rise gives you

  • Flavor you can't rush. A day or more of slow fermentation builds the gentle tang, deep wheat flavor, and crackly crust that fast-made bread can't match.
  • Easier on the stomach. The long ferment gives the starter time to start breaking down starches and gluten before you ever take a bite — many people find real sourdough sits easier.
  • Steadier energy. Fermentation softens the blood-sugar spike of ordinary white bread, so a slice of sourdough tends to keep you satisfied longer.
  • Nothing to hide behind. Flour, water, salt, and time — no commercial yeast in the loaves, no preservatives or conditioners. The fermentation itself is what keeps the loaf fresh.
  • More from the grain. Fermentation helps unlock minerals already in the flour — iron, zinc, and magnesium — so more of what's in the wheat is available to you.
