Lotsa Matza

The Middletown Springs couple who make a living baking handmade, wood-fired artisan bread have launched a new bread for the Passover season and they're calling it 'Vermatzah.'
Nothing to Pass Over
In Vermont food circles, kosher-certified isn't just for Jews anymore. According to several Vermont businesses that have been certified as kosher in recent years, an increasing number of consumers want products with a kosher seal. That demand comes from vegans, lactose-intolerants or other conscientious eaters concerned about industrial food production. In the eyes of many people, a kosher seal, like a certified organic seal, is one more guarantee of quality. To paraphrase an old Hebrew National advertisement, it reassures the customer: This busines answers to a higher authority than the U.S. government.

Julie Sperling and Doug Freilich of Naga Bakehouse in Middletown Springs recently invented Vermatzah, a round, handmade, wood-fired alternative to the mass-produced Manischewitz matzohs you find in the supermarket. As a bonus, each box comes with a small bag of wheat seeds so eaters can, in theory, start growing their own.
