(2) Cornbread (preferably served with a bowl of pinto beans on the side, and a thick pat of butter for the cornbread)
(3) Homemade blueberry or blackberry muffins
(4) Onion or garlic naan (served with onion chutney on the side)

I’m going off the board with Rhodes frozen rolls. Great at Thanksgiving and you can use them for other things like pepperoni rolls or cinnamon rolls.

I’m very fortunate here as at our weekly Farmer’s market we have “the bread lady” as a vendor. So, with that said,

  1. Challah ( she makes a holiday version with cranberries…yum, yum)

  2. A Moroccan bread made with sesame seeds (a flat-ish bread - so tasty!)

  3. DH enjoys her olive or blue cheese breads

  4. And how can I leave out her sourdough based chocolate bread!

(Her booth is right next to the Farmer’s Market soup booth!)

mlawa!

OMG so good! My Israeli friend whose parents and grandparents were air lifted out of Yemen in 1956 makes it. Layers of flour worked until the gluten makes it rise. Folded over and over, each time brushed with butter. Fried with butter, served with grated plum tomatoes.

Trader Joe’s sells almond (chocolate too!) croissants. Take them out of the package, let them rise overnight, bake in the morning. Yummy!

Aside from the aforementioned mlawa, I love rye and or pumpernickel bread/rolls/bagels with caraway seeds. Many bagel stores (at least here in Brooklyn) sell suitable pumpernickel bagels that way. Not the fake soft Dunkin/Thomas’s/whatever bagels; the kind you need to use your teeth to eat. With butter for me; I’m not a cream cheese fan.

Bialy
NYC bagel
raisin walnut sourdough bread
olive rosemary bread made near the foggy ocean (there’s a bakery in Pacifica that makes the OMG best)
naan

Toasted Italian bread with butter, garlic salt, and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese,
Showing my unsophisticated roots here - Olive Garden bread sticks,
Homemade soft rolls - I don’t like hard crusts on bread, and
Buttered corn tortillas.

Those are delicious!

Had one of the best bagels of my life in May at Court Street Bagels in Brooklyn! With green olive and scallion smear, omg…

36

I don’t know if they still taste the same but I can remember a day when a great meal out was the endless salad and breadsticks at Olive Garden - those warm soft breadsticks sopping up the OG italian dressing…so satisfying!

My husband recently discovered croissant bread at Costco. That thing is sooo good, especially with some Brie and Bonne Maman preserves.

Is it from La Boulangerie? I love that stuff but have to get it at Whole Paycheck.
