More About This Book

Overview

This classic guide to artisanal bread is back with a fresh new look, just in time to take advantage of the recent surge in popularity of at-home baking. As an award-winning baker and member of a religious brotherhood, Peter Reinhart skillfully blends the two aspects of his life in this eloquent guide to creating wonderful bread. More than 30 delicious recipes, from perfect white bread to pumpernickel and corn, will appeal to both the novice and experienced baker. Reinhart’s graceful commentary accompanies readers every step of the way, and illustrates how the artistry of baking, especially using the slow-rise method, is a metaphor for a purposeful life driven by service and charity. Cookies, sticky buns, stromboli, pizza crust, and "the world’s greatest brownies” are some of the delectable dividend recipes included.

"Delightful. . . . His inventive breads--struan, wild-rice and onion, goat ricotta and chive, cajun three-pepper, Tex-mex cumin--will make you a believer."--People magazine. "A fascinating collection of recipes and anecdotal recipes, rich with humor, warmth, and love."--The Philadelphia Daily News.

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly
Brother Juniper's Bakery in Sonoma County, Calif., is run by Brother Peter Reinhart and his wife Sister Susan as a ministry of the Christ the Saviour Brotherhood. And Reinhart's subtitle introduces some amiable confusion, for whereas the author argues for the ``slow rise'' method as a general principle in developing ``character'' in a bread and crust and demonstrates its application in a fine recipe and procedure for ``Sweet French Bread,'' more frequently he departs from it. The highly praised ``Struan,'' for instance, a five-grain traditional Scottish ``golden loaf'' that ``radiates in many directions,'' tolerates only two rather quick risings, character being born by ``conditioners'' such as buttermilk and polenta, rather than process. Brother Peter's wish to present a central principle for bread lets us in for a certain amount of New Age claptrap that is, however, well balanced by pragmatism. He makes insightful use of whole grains but has not a word to spare for unleavened breads. This book has much to say to the experienced baker, although the novice will find basics adequately covered. (Oct.)

    Getting inside the Dough

    The real heart of this book is the Slow Rise, not only the dough rising, but your spirit rising. Wonderfully written, filled with insight, it can be read with interest even without being interested in baking bread. But, hey, that's a good idea, too! Try baking a couple loaves. The recipes are easy to follow. There are more than a few unique breads in here, things you won't find in the grocery store, OR other bread books, either.

    Better than a Cookbook; More useful than fiction!

    I was recommended this book by a friend, and would never have found it on my own. Since I purchased it, in talking about it, I have caused at least five of my friends to buy this book as well¿I like it too much to share my copy. The recipes are wonderful (I don¿t even bake bread) and easy to follow. There is a recipe for everyone in this book. I would have never thought I would read a cookbook for enjoyment. The process of `slow rise¿ relates so much to life and how, in the end, everything is a process NOT a product. It¿s all in the `getting there¿, not your final result. Buy this book!!
