About the Bread
We believe in the “taste of place” and to us, Central Montana tastes like a crusty, nutty, hearty loaf of sourdough bread.
This bread is both simple and beautiful, made from Montana flour (some from wheat we grow, as well as some from Montana farmers through Montana Flour and Grains), water, salt and sourdough starter that pulls leavening from the wild Montana skies. You could say it's "Made of Montana."
Jacob grew up on good bread baked by his Dad, so when he started growing grain, it was a natural that he bake some of what he grew. The bread built up a following each year and in 2016, it grew into its own thing and Blue Truck Bread was born. The name comes from Jacob's "new" 1963 Chevy pick up truck, a Father's Day gift from his wife, kids and parents.
Right now, Jacob focuses on a handful of “flavors,” which are all made from the foundation recipe of hearty sourdough but also have some embellishments, if you will:
Papa Bread Sourdough: Our foundation sourdough, named by our 3-year-old, who yells “Papa Bread” from the top of the stairs when he wakes up.
Seedy Sourdough: The addition of lentil flour, sunflower seeds, and flax seeds make this hearty bread even heartier. Great toasted with cream cheese and jam or lox.
Honey Loaf Sourdough: Made with Smoot Honey Co. honey, this will make your peanut butter and jelly something special. (Smoot Honey is a family operation run by friends and neighbors up the road in Power so you could call this a Power loaf.)
