More than just recipes.
The recipes in this book are good. Really good. The breads are great, some are fluffy and fruity while others are dense and nutty. I'm even planning to give the pizza oven a go.
However, what sets this book apart from others is its author, Daniel Stevens, who is a great communicator and teacher. He takes the mysticism out of making bread, something I always found a little daunting, and takes you through the whole process step by step and then encourages you to try on your own.
Yesterday, I made a mistake and ended up with a really sloppy dough. Thanks to Daniel I just stood back took stock of what I had and turned what should have been a spelt loaf into some wicked ciabatta. Thanks Daniel. by David Weightman
