Flour + Stone
Bread unites people across all cultures—place a big, crusty loaf fresh from the oven on the table, and watch as borders fade and happiness grows. Bread plays an important role in every culture and is a food that some argue was the birth of civilization.
Some 30 thousand years ago, north of the Alps, bread was made with wild seeds and an early wheat plant. Later, farmers raised barley and oats and made flat breads with the addition of seeds and water. Breads evolved among Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, Germanic tribes, and Celts.
While it’s true that one cannot live on bread alone, one should certainly not have to live without bread either.
Bread culture has moved beyond the tasteless white, pre-sliced Wonder Bread and is now focused on quality and variety and is often revered. Flour + Stone celebrates the simple flatbread by using our fresh, proprietary doughs to provide a canvas for exciting toppings and moreIsh flavors from the worlds’ ovens.
