Rye bread & sourdough

Butter, a Slice of Tomato, Onion, and a Little Bit of Dill (Aivars Stūris)

Grand RApids, USA

Aivars has been baking sourdough bread for many years, having taken over the tradition from his father when he retired. Today, Aivars bakes bread for himself and his family, as well as for American friends and nearby Latvian communities, including Garezers and the Grand Rapids Latvian retirees’ association.
