The Bakers Percentage
This is a baking book with a difference - No recipes, just an amazing formula that will revolutionize the way you bake sourdough bread.
While we all went crazy making sourdough during lockdown, many home bakers have given up as they found the process laborious and inflexible - having to keep your starter / leaven alive. This book gives readers a simple set of paramaters that allows them to bake bread with confidence, according to their own needs and schedule.
With chapters on Flour, Starters & Leaven, Mixing & Kneading, Bulk Fermentation, Dividing, Shaping & Proofing, Baking, and more, it's a comprehensive guide to baking bread, whatever way takes your fancy.
