Don Guerra’s Barrio Bagel & Slice Limited-Availability Loaf Partnership Mingle + Graze Begin MAY 22

Don Guerra, of Barrio Bread and Barrio Bagel & Slice, is all about community, intention and a passion for amazing bread. In his latest venture that weaves these meaningful concepts together, Guerra has partnered with Mahfam Moeeni-Alarcon, chef and co-owner of Mingle + Graze, to develop a new bread recipe, the Caravan Fougasse.

The Caravan Fougasse is inspired by the ancient caravan routes that connected ancient Iran, North Africa and Al-Andalus (Spain). Guerra combines his Arizona heritage grains from Hayden Flour Mills to create this fougasse, which is then layered with Mahfam’s house-marinated olives and Mingle + Graze’s featured cheese, Los Cameros, a mixed-milk cheese from Spain’s Rioja region. Za’atar and sumac spices give each loaf a touch of brightness to reflect a world shaped by movement, connection and exchange.

The results of this incredible collaboration will be available by the loaf at Don Guerra’s Bagel & Slice as well as the Gilbert Farmers Market beginning Friday, May 22 for $15 per loaf.

At Mingle + Graze, guests can enjoy the bread along with a seasonal board featuring Los Cameros cheese (which is also featured in the bread), marinated olives, halva (a sweet sesame paste spread), membrillo (quince paste), nuts, artisanal butter and accoutrements for $24.95. The board serves one to three guests as a perfect snack or starter.

Don Guerra’s Barrio Bagel & Slice is the brainchild of Don Guerra and Oren Molovinsky, whose combined passion for building and connecting community through high-quality ingredients fuels partnerships such as these.

Guerra is available for news story interviews and television segments during which he can showcase the beautiful and delicious Caravan Fougasse, as well as other loaves and menu items from Barrio Bagel & Slice.
