Artisan Sourdough: Wholesome Recipes, Organic Grains

I have purchased a number of books to teach myself how to bake my own sourdough due to the fact that it is the only type of bread that I digest well because of the fermentation process. Literally all of the other books I have read have left me with questions like if I decide to put my starter in the fridge and feed it, am I supposed to put it right back in the fridge or leave it out and then put it back? Most books don’t answer these little detailed questions!!! This book answers it all with actual pictures that are relevant. I’ve also noticed in a lot of the books that there are an abundance of pictures but they are completely useless! This book is detailed with specific instructions and has great information to make and store your starter but doesn’t waste time on it. It gets the basics over with and then tells you how to bake bread in a simplified manner depending on what type of flour you want to use.I LOVE this book and am so happy I found it. I found the best process for me and now I can expand based on this information. No more questions!!!! Thank you so much :).

This book took my sourdough bread making to another level with clear instructions and beautiful photos. No fuss, no fancy-schmancy complicated recipes. Just quality sourdough from Oslo’s Illebrød bakers who know how to make the real deal. It also makes the perfect gift for anyone starting or struggling to make sourdough bread (along with some starter to get them going). This is the fourth copy I’ve purchased.

Je suis franchement en amour avec ce bouquin! Je boulange depuis un bon moment et j’ai fait des pains au levain à quelques reprises! Néanmoins, c’est avec ce livre que j’ai eu les meilleurs résultats! La méthode est bien expliquée (et présentée de façon simple et efficace) et la recette de pain de base est excellente (levain, blé, épeautre)!!!! Clairement, ce bouquin est dans mon top 3 avec ceux de Chad Robertson (Tartine bread) et de Ken Forkish (Flour, water, salt, yeast...).

After many bungled attempts at sourdough, this book has enabled me to bake great bread!

My sourdough baking elevated to a new level once I got this book. I’m working my way up through the recipes. It’s not only a beautiful book but the step by step pictures help.
