I've had the Kindle version for years but decided to buy the physical copy since I use it so much. I learned how to make sourdough bread from this book. But, it's more than just a beautiful loaf of bread, the additional recipes are so delicious! I make the stuffed Croque Monsieur Focaccia quite often, a killer recipe in which focaccia is stuffed with ham, cheese, and ricotta. What you can do with leftover starter, my favorite is skillet flatbreads. And the techniques offered like the folding techniques and scoring patterns are clear and helpful. Well illustrated and clear instruction make this a must have.

I ordered 900 year old starter then activated it and then went on internet to get recipes then I saw this book on eBay so I ordered it and I just love the recipes and I have made several loads that are fantastic they look like works of art !!! They look so good I don’t want to cut into them ...lol I recommend this book to anyone that want to learn the science behind making great sourdough breads.

I generally prefer hardcover cookbooks but the design of this paperback makes it just as easy to lie flat. I have used several recipes, first the making of the starter. I appreciate the discussion about types and quality of ingredients and tools. The photos are very attractive and helpful to know if my ‘product’ is on the right track. I understand the type size has to be small to fit all the words in but that is my only concern, because the long lines with small type make it a challenge to read. Overall a great beginners book, but also has many creative advanced recipes!

I’ve always been intimidated by bread making, with sourdough being even more so. So I bought this book and have my sourdough starter going! I love how this author explains each step for making bread and I am already gaining much needed confidence!
