Sourdough

Product Information

The list is not exhaustive, so if you have other recommendations you think should be here, please let us know. This guide simplifies the process of making your own starter so it’s accessible to anyone, no matter your skill level. Addie Roberts’ new e-book, “Secrets of Open Crumb,” is a great new addition to your sourdough library.

Wholegrain Sourdough at Home is a very inspiring book, full of sourdough recipes that are for both health and our pleasure.

Bonnie’s book works like a training manual using different (delicious) yeasted recipes and builds your confidence and skills graduating you to a beginner’s SD recipe at the end of the book. The _ga cookie, installed by Google Analytics, calculates visitor, session and campaign data and also keeps track of site usage for the site's analytics report. It knows as much about the strange extremes of food as Penumbra did about the dark latitudes of the book community.

A mysterious starter enters Lois Clary's life and has her reconsider not just her choice of career but her choices in life. My father was a database programmer for General Motors who liked his work and had endeavored to surround me with computers from toddlerhood onward, and whose plan succeeded because I never thought of anything except following his path, especially at a time when programming was taking on a sheen of dynamism and computer science departments were wooing young women aggressively.

Organised into seasonal chapters, with an additional chapter on breads for celebrations, the recipes all follow one master timing plan and many of them can be baked in a tin. In addition to the technique, the book includes 40 sourdough recipes including classic loaves, sweet loaves and creative flavor combinations in a variety of savory loaves. I believe it is the first novel in English to feature, as a key supporting character, a sentient sourdough starter.

Baking, foodie culture, and a club made up of women named Lois all figure in this charming story about a coder slogging away at a trendy tech company. For two summers during college, I interned at Crowley Control Systems, a company in Southfield that provided motor control software for one of Chevrolet's electric cars, and when I graduated, there was a job waiting for me. For those looking to make professional-quality bread and perfect every element of baking bread at home, The Perfect Loaf will guide you there by giving you not just recipes but also the tools to think like a baker. I quickly leafed through the recipes to find the obligatory Farmhouse Sourdough Loaf, but I lost my boring white-bread sensibilities along the way as I read mouthwatering recipes for a Chile Polenta Loaf, Roasted Garlic and Mashed Potato Ciabatta, Spelt and Apple Muffins, and Rye Focaccia. Addie describes each the specialized techniques that produce her consistently eye-popping crumb photos, and she describes the background of how she learned, developed, and modified her techniques to produce the results.More a first-person story than a bread recipe book (although it includes a few recipes) the book focuses on one man’s journey to learn history of breadmaking, and in that process he discovers the colorful backstory of modern bread baking.
