Bread. Essential food.
Faithful companion of the history of man.
Everyday fuel that is transformed into energy.
Ancestral food associated with life, abundance
, resurrection, fertility and the cycles of nature.
Each culture, from east to west, developed its specialties.
According to World of Statistics (@stats_feed), Argentina, with its
72 kilos of per capita consumption per year
, would rank
sixth in the world
among the countries most faithful to this food, after Turkey (199.6 kg), Serbia (135 kg ), Bulgaria (131.1 kg), Ukraine (88 kg) and Cyprus (74 kg).
In recent years, a new group of consumers has grown significantly, encouraged by the desire to find breads that break away from the classic dogma of
figacitas, cremonas, mignons, French bread and
traditional breads.
A need that encouraged new proposals promoted by cutting-edge bakers who work against widespread “flourphobia” and in the production of more natural and careful breads.
The story of Levando
Rodrigo Colombres knew that his time at the Oporto restaurant was over.
He wanted to explore new gastronomic horizons.
Thus, he partnered with Gabriel Kogan (his former supplier of high-quality bread) to undertake a joint venture.
They opted for a large contemporary artisanal bakery
, “fed” by
organic flours, sourdough, patient
and pampered fermentations, self-produced malt and good technology, with a single objective: to make bakery specialties and pastries of excellence, without additives or preservatives.
In January 2023 the idea becomes a reality.
Levando sliced bread.
They create a large, perfectly equipped space.
At the entrance, two imposing electric ovens (ideal for this type of production, as they manage heat very efficiently) clearly reveal intentions and objectives.
They start selling to restaurants and cafes.
At the same time, they add and enhance sales to the public, who respond with enthusiasm.
What to eat in Levando
Focaccias.
They currently have
eighteen specialties between sweet and savory
.
Most are inspired by the French style and Argentine taste.
The baguettes are light, honeycombed and subtly crispy.
Whole wheat bread offers moisture, compact texture, satisfying acidity and the pleasant flavor of seeds.
Croissants (made of wet dough
, pleasant texture, painted with citrus syrup) and
croissants
(light and flaky) give the pleasure of buttery sweetness.
sandwiches with abundant filling and artisan bread.
The cheese roll shows off its salty and flaky layers where the intense flavor of pategras and basil pesto is hinted at.
There are sandwiches of the day with charcuterie and artisanal pickles.
Specialty filter coffee, organic wines, kombuchas
and beers.
