Page Street Publishing Artisan Sourdough Made Simple: A Beginner's Guide to Delicious Handcrafted Bread with Minimal Kneading

This book is made in an easy way to read and understand. It is truly made for beginners having detailed instructions put down in a simple understandable way. I really loved the nice recipes it contained including recipes for starter discard. I have already tried some of the recipes and it worked well. It is a must have book for all artisan bread beginners.

I am happy with the book’s content with varied recipes about sourdough and much more!

Fantastic book with many great, simple recipes, with practical instructions.

I had been baking sourdough for several months, had a stack of recipes I'd found on the internet and printed out, but I wanted some inspiration; what else could I do with sourdough? I researched lots of books, bought one in Kindle version (not recommended, difficult to use and unsatisfying). Then I came across this. Good reviews and looked attractive with the kind of recipes I was looking for. I purchased the paperback version. I was not disappointed! Beautifully presented with lots of beautiful photographs, the book is ideal for someone just starting their sourdough adventure and for someone with a bit of experience. All the basics are there; equipment, making a starter, creating your first loaves. Well written and easy to follow. Steps and processes clearly laid out. What I was looking for was there too. The flavoured breads that are so tempting in the supermarket, rolls, buns, flatbreads, Focaccia, etc. And what to do with your sourdough discard! So far have made Soft Tear and Share rolls, Pickled Jalapeno, Cheddar & Chive bread, Break-apart Sesame Spelt Crackers and Skillet Greek Yogurt Flatbreads. Very pleased with the results. You might have to tweak things, sourdough is like that, so many variations affected by temperature of kitchen, etc. Already recommended this book and my friend has purchased it! Buy the paperback version, so much more satisfying than the Kindle. You will just want to sit down and pour over the recipes. Now, what shall I bake next?

Muy buen libro. Perfecto para aprender y hornear en casa. Tiene una gran variedad de recetas desde saladas a dulces y extras para acompañar el pan. Todo viene perfectamente explicado.

Ho seguito il metodo descritto dal libro per creare il lievito madre liquido e finalmente da più di 6 mesi ho il mio lievito che utilizzo per fare il pane, sempre seguendo una ricetta del libro. Ci sono delle immagini molto belle e le ricette sono ben descritte. Quando ho avuto un problema durante la "creazione" del licoli perché in casa mia faceva troppo caldo sono andata a leggere il suo blog, dove ci sono ulteriori spiegazioni sulla lievitazione. Ovviamente sia il libro che il blog sono in inglese. Per ora ho utilizzato sempre 2-3 ricette "classiche" ma presto vorrei provare anche quelle un po' più particolari!

The recipes are very simple to follow and they work
