Bliv medlem af LibraryThing for at finde ud af, om du vil kunne lide denne bog. Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog. A journey from tech employment to becoming a successful baker. The narrative was interesting, much like the evolution of learning to bake bread products, as told by Sam Fromartz In Search of the Perfect Loaf. In FWSY, the author supplies easy to follow recipes and detailed techniques. One flaw in the presentation was the focus on recipes with rather minor adjustments to create a different product. Maybe in professional baking facilities and processes, as well as reliance on a Dutch oven mode of cooking, this might be useful. In a standard home kitchen, not so much. There were comments about managing pre-ferments, like poolish and biga, adjusting conditions to achieve a good fermentation and bulk proofing however, which make this a useful reference cookbook. It might seem like cheating for me to include a cookbook in my “books read this year” list, but this isn’t a book of recipes so much as a book about how to bake bread that also includes recipes. It’s packed with details while still being easy to follow and it’s suitable for any skill level, so I can see why it’s a “bread bible” for so many people. I’ve also been extremely happy with the bread I’ve made with its guidance. (As of this review, I’ve only made the white bread with poolish, but I did it twice and it turned out perfectly both times.) I first learned how to bake bread from my mom, but I’ve had to unlearn just about all of her techniques. (For one thing, you really do need to measure by weight instead of volume, so even though Ken includes volume measurements in the book, please spring for a digital scale like he recommends!) I also make a pretty damn good soft sandwich bread using a straight dough that takes about 4 hours to be ready from start to finish, but this book is really going to take my bread game to a new level. I had always been too intimidated by the technical details of using pre-ferments and measuring the dough’s temperature, but this book breaks everything down into layperson-accessible steps and anticipates a lot of the problems you might encounter. It’s all great! Looking forward to making more and more of the recipes and coming up with one I can call my own. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
