From the website:

At Gil’s Bread we specialize in great-tasting, handcrafted breads and are committed to traditional bread baking techniques. Everything we make is crafted by hand, from scratch. Our breads are baked daily from the finest ingredients. We use no mixes, chemical additives or preservatives. All of our flours are unbleached. We use multiple types of flour to ensure consistency in texture, size and shelf life.

We use traditional methods and lengthy fermentation times to produce the finest quality bread. Lengthy fermentation times allow flavors to develop to their fullest. Our natural culture breads are started days before they go into the oven.

Gil Turchin received his training in bread baking at The French Culinary Institute in New York City and at The San Francisco Baking Institute. He realized his dream upon relocating to Ridgeland, Mississippi with his wife, Sally, in 2013 and opening Gil’s Bread.

You can find him mixing dough, hand shaping or baking our beautiful artisan bread. Come by and say hello!
