I have never written a review for a book on Amazon before, but this book is crying out for it.
The very first time I made the basic country bread it came out better than any bread I have ever made before, my husband even called it "real bread"!
I am now slowly working my way through the recipes and hoping for more delicious results.

I very nearly did - and that would have been a mistake.
It is one of the most thorough and thoughtful introductions you could wish to find into the art (and science) of making naturally leavened breads.
Sourdough bread has become incredibly fashionable (and expensive) in recent years and so making your own at home is very tempting. It is not an easy process and you need a lot of patience. This elegantly produced book (with some stunning photography) takes you through all the necessary steps clearly without patronising the more experienced reader.
The first half takes you through a range of bread-making techniques and the rest is given over to some recipes using the breads. I intend to work my way through it all!
You certainly need a passion to embark on this sort of baking journey - this book could well inspire you to try.

Not only does the book present a fail-free method of making perfect sourdough bread, it is gorgeous to hold and look at. A perfect addition to any baker's library, both novice and professional.
