Made with love

At Shammah’s Bakery, I pour my heart into every loaf, hand-kneading each batch with care and using only the best organic ingredients. This in-home microbakery is built on a love for slow-fermented, naturally leavened sourdough—crafted the way bread was meant to be. From the crisp crust to the soft, airy crumb, every bite is a taste of tradition, made fresh for you and your family to enjoy.

Frequently Asked Questions

No, sourdough doesn’t have to be sour. Perfectly fermented sourdough isn’t very sour at all. It may have a slight tang to it, but some people might not even taste a sour note at all, especially in those items made with a “stiff starter” like mine. “Sourdough” is just a term used to describe a bread that has been naturally leavened with wild yeast captured and grown in a sourdough starter. Sourdough is not supposed to be sour. The baker can manipulate the sourness, to an extent, through the health and maintenance of the starter, the time and temperature of fermentation, and also by under proofing or over proofing the dough. True sourdough will never be as sour as what you find in the store/commercial bakery. Commercial bakeries usually add acid flavor by means of vinegar, enzymes, or citric acid, and use yeast to compensate for the lack of rise when pushing fermentation. The commercial yeast also gives the bread a more closed crumb (less holes in the dough), and speeds up the rising process. This prevents the final bread from being as nutritious and gut friendly as true sourdough.

No; because I work in a kitchen that constantly has flour in it, there will always be cross contamination. I would need a completely separate gluten-free kitchen to safely offer those items. My long fermented sourdough breads have been enjoyed by gluten-sensitive customers, and some with slight gluten allergies, without any stomach upset, or side effects, but none of my baked goods are gluten-free. If you have Celiac disease or a severe gluten allergy, I recommend that you seek out a certified gluten-free kitchen to make your baked goods.

Yes, I am always willing to discuss custom orders. Send me a message and let me know what I can bake for you!

All sourdough orders need a minimum of 3 days notice. Traditional yeast, and non sourdough items need 2 days notice. Yeast and non sourdough items can be done in 24 hours with a $20 rush fee.

I choose sourdough most of the time for the health benefits, but I know that not everyone is looking for sourdough, so I also offer conventional yeast and non-sourdough products. Any item on my menu can be made without sourdough. (With the exception of the artisan sourdough boules.) If you prefer to have non-sourdough items, please send me a message and we can work out a custom order.

No, there is no storefront. Everything is made to order, and delivered to main street in Kamiah for pickup. Pick-up times, are arranged when you order.
