Now you can enjoy the soul-warming aromas and beguiling flavors of
homemade sourdough with much less fuss and with a whole lot less time in
the kitchen.
In Sourdough Breads from the Bread Machine, best-selling bread-machine
author Michelle Anderson turns her expert hand to sourdough breads and
shows that these supposedly difficult breads really can be very easy to
make, if you have a bread machine in your kitchen arsenal. She does so
by way of delivering 100 delectable and foolproof recipes, from
basic loaves for the weekday whirl to rustic artisan breads like
ciabatta, focaccia, brioche, and baguettes, along with
nut breads, cheese breads, herb breads, and sweet dessert
breads like babka and stollen. The recipes include:
You will learn how to acquire, work with, and store a good sourdough
starter. You will find family-recipes for lunchbox sandwiches and
elegant breads to serve when you have company. You will find
healthy breads made with whole grains and with nutritious filings
like nuts, yogurt, veggies, and fruit. Above all, you will find breads
that are a delight to eat.
And you probably know that working with sourdough always yields lots of
extra dough, called "discard." The book has a special chapter that
reveals all the glorious things you can make with sourdough discard,
from Sourdough Brownies and Sourdough Blueberry Muffins to
Sourdough Pancakes, Sourdough Lemon Scones, and even Sourdough
Chocolate Chip Cookies.
This is a book that makes sourdough easier than you ever thought--and
better tasting than ever.
