Alvarado Street Bakery Awarded “Best Rye” In Magazine Taste Test

Petaluma, CA – Sonoma County’s own Alvarado Street Bakery won the “Best Rye” category in a sandwich bread taste test conducted by Everyday with Rachael Ray Magazine. The results were published in the September 2010 edition of the magazine.

Alvarado Street Bakery, a worker owned cooperative located in Petaluma, CA, was contacted by a representative of the magazine to provide samples of their Sprouted Rye Seed Bread for a series of blind taste tests that were conducted by a panel of Everyday by Rachael Ray editors and food industry professionals.

The employees of the bakery co-op were really excited to find out that they won the rye category, and they have posted images of the magazine on their Facebook page. The bread is a very unique flour-less loaf that contains sprouted organic rye-seeds, along with caraway seeds, dill weed, and celery seeds.

The magazine states that this “complex-tasting bread is like a circus of flavors in your mouth!”

Alvarado Street Bakery is in it's 30th year and is owned and managed entirely by the employees. Alvarado Street Bakery makes sprouted wheat breads and bagels that are sold in grocery stores and natural food stores nationally and internationally.
