A Few of Our

watermelon radish

Lately we have so enjoyed using Watermelon Radish in our dishes. This heirloom variety of the daikon radish adds a peppery yet sweet taste to our salads. The vivid burst of Watermelon-rose color would even get the kids eating radish.

Danish Rugbrod

Our baker Ben started making these rye loaves a few months ago and we are excited to put them in our "breadline" full-time. Using a local cracked rye, we are able to get a wonderful nutty-earthy flavor that compliments so many different types of foods.

Owner of Bread Furst

Mark Furstenberg

Bread Furst was preceded by two Washington bakeries, Marvelous Market which opened in 1990 and then The Breadline in 1997. But for one reason and a few others, by 2010 there was no neighborhood bakery in Washington. That seemed wrong and it is why Mark Furstenberg, an old man far beyond his prime, opened Bread Furst, a neighborhood bakery just half a mile from Marvelous Market, by now just a nice memory.
