New Day Bakery:
Rustic Italian, always a favorite! This is our house “white” bread – soft, moist, and enriched with olive oil. A classic Italian hearth bread that slices well for sandwiches, garlic bread, toast, you name it. Â We have it sliced AND whole.
Onion Rye! A hearty old-world-style rye bread made chewy with coarsely-ground whole rye flour, flavored with caraway seeds and dried onion.
Sevengrain! Chewy, hearty, and wholesome, made with white, wheat, and rye flours plus flax seeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and millet. A great everyday sandwich bread.
Try the BLUE Sevengrain: stuffed with blue cheese.
Walnut Wheat! A sourdough-style wheat bread with a higher percentage of levain than our other breads, flavored with walnuts and whole wheat flour.
3 Cheese & Spinach Ciabatta! Literally “slipper” in Italian. Made simply from flour, water, salt and yeast, this bread is soft on the inside and chewy on the outside, with large irregular holes throughout. It’s perfect for spaghetti dinners and for dipping in flavored olive oils.
AND by request this week: Â Baguettes! Classic French loaves – long, thin and all about crispy, crackly crust. Using nothing more than flour, water, salt, yeast, patience and love, we evoke the buttery breads of the Parisian boulangerie.

Grilled Chicken with Roasted Garlic-
This week’s suggested recipe: submitted by Darlene Bolyard
Roasted Eggplant and Goat’s Milk Yogurt Dip
- – 850 grams (30 ounces) eggplants, the smaller the better
- – one clove garlic, peeled
- – 120 ml (1/2 cup) goat’s milk yogurt (substitute sheep’s milk yogurt or plain Greek-style yogurt)
- – ground cumin, to taste*
- – ground chile pepper, to taste*
- – salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste*
- – a large handful of fresh cilantro leaves (a.k.a. coriander in some parts of the world), finely snipped
Makes about 240 ml (1 cup).
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Place the eggplants in a single layer in a shallow baking dish (or a rimmed baking sheet lined with foil), and prick them in a few places with a fork. Cut a small slit in the most bulbous part of one eggplant and slip the garlic clove inside. Roast for 50 minutes to 1 hour, until completely soft, turning the eggplants 2 or 3 times during the baking.
Set aside in a colander until cool enough to handle. Transfer each eggplant in turn on a cutting board. Cut a deep slit down the length of the eggplant to open it wide, and scrape the flesh using a wooden spoon. Discard the stem and skin, set the flesh aside (be sure to recover the garlic clove), and repeat with the remaining eggplants.
In the bowl of a food processor or blender**, combine the eggplant flesh, garlic, and yogurt, and season with cumin, chile pepper, salt, and black pepper. Process in short pulses until smooth. Fold in the cilantro, taste, and adjust the seasoning.
Cover and refrigerate for a few hours, if possible, to allow the flavors to develop. Serve with pita bread, or, in our case, fresh baguette. This also makes a fine sandwich/tartine spread, or a side to lamb meatballs or grilled fish.
* I’ve deliberately left out the measurements for the spices and seasonings: how much you need depends on how flavorful your eggplants and yogurt are, and on your personal preference. Start small, taste, and work your way up as needed.
** If you don’t own either, you can mash everything with a fork ; the texture will be chunkier and less dip-able, but it will still be good.
