Ortiz Bread:

Eating this delicate, fluffy, yet a bit of a mellow crunch bread is like sitting on a boat roaring
down the Grand Canal in Venice on a midsummer day, while drinking the finest port wine. Yes, it
is that good and intense. Its very simple yet very warm and will go great with any tomato based

Biscuits and cheese were meant to be, thats all that needs to be said. This light,fluffy, layered
piece of heaven will leave you in a daze and confusion of greatness. Golden brown on top from
the inhouse french egg wash that leaves it a nice crisp on top to the cheesy and flaky body that

Step 5: After those first steps you add in the soft garnished and squish by hand not breaking it
down

Favorite Product
My favorite finished item by far is the braided bread. I was always
fascinated when ever i seen that design on bread in the store and i always wanted to
Know How did they make it. When i was taught the design and method i thought it was
beyond easy. In my mind i was thinking in order to get a nice piece of art like that it had
to be machine processed. I literally was in shock when i learned that you just fold it up
were as if you were making wired bracelets like i use to make as a kid. Im a big fan of
creativity because i'm an artist and getting jazzy with my food is something i urge to do.

it is something i will most definitely use in my future establish me for display.

Step 5: After the dough is separated wrap in plastic wrap and stick it in the cooler for
about 30mins to an hour to get cold and stiff enough to roll out. Once thats done flour up
your bench/table and pat out the dough. Then roll out the dough but with even thickness
so that no soft spots can form causing holes in the crust.

Step 6: After you roll it out to the right size of your pie tray lay it in the tray and lightly
push it down to fit. Cut off extra dough and the push in the size to get the design in the
top right photo. When the pie dough is finished you can freeze and use it whenever you
desire to.
