Do sourdough

Description

One of the oldest yet simplest, tastiest and most nutritious breads you can make, sourdough needs only flour, water, salt – and a little time. But what if time is the one thing you don’t have? In Do Sourdough, Andrew Whitley, a baker of over 30 years who has ‘changed the way we think about bread’, reveals how the slow fermentation that’s key to real sourdough can happen while we’re asleep or at work. With this simple method, you can make this wonderful bread at home. Discover: the basic tools and ingredients you need to get started; how to create and refresh your own sourdough starter; recipes for basic loaves, sourdough pizza, ciabatta, crumpets and more; and a 7-day plan for the bread you don’t devour immediately. The result isn't just fresh bread made with your own hands and in your own time. It’s the chance to learn new skills, make something to share with family and friends, and change your world – one loaf at a time.
