Borealis Breads: Leading the Renaissance of Maine Grain

Borealis Breads spreads the gospel of good bread. Jim Amaral has worked with area farmers to grow custom grains and become a vibrant part of Maine’s foodscape. This collaboration is a book about the renaissance of Maine grains, the art and science of sourdough, recipes from the bakery’s twenty-fiveyears, how they made it to this point in Maine’s agricultural life, and where the farmers, millers, and bakers will take us in the future. Recipes include Rosemary Hazelnut Bread, Lemon Fig Loaves, Maine Seaweed Focaccia with Garlic, White Wine Mussels, Caprese Baguette Paninis, and many more.
