The Bread Baker's Apprentice: Mastering the Art of Extraordinary Bread
Description
Co-founder of the legendary Brother Juniper’s Bakery, author of the landmark
books Brother Juniper’s Bread Book and Crust & Crumb, and distinguished
instructor at the world’s largest culinary academy, Peter Reinhart has been a
leader in America’s artisanal bread movement for over fifteen years. Never one
to be content with yesterday’s baking triumph, however, Peter continues to
refine his recipes and techniques in his never-ending quest for extraordinary
bread. In The Bread Baker’s Apprentice, Peter shares his latest bread
breakthroughs, arising from his study in several of France’s famed
boulangeries and the always-enlightening time spent in the culinary academy
kitchen with his students. Peer over Peter’s shoulder as he learns from
Paris’s most esteemed bakers, like Lionel Poilâne and Phillippe Gosselin,
whose pain à l’ancienne has revolutionized the art of baguette making. Then
stand alongside his students in the kitchen as Peter teaches the classic
twelve stages of building bread, his clear instructions accompanied by over
100 step-by-step photographs. You’ll put newfound knowledge into practice with
50 new master formulas for such classic breads as rustic ciabatta, hearty pain
de campagne, old-school New York bagels, and the book’s Holy Grail–Peter’s
version of the famed pain à l’ancienne. En route, Peter distills hard science,
advanced techniques, and food history into a remarkably accessible and
engaging resource that is as rich and multitextured as the loaves you’ll turn
out. This is original food writing at its most captivating, teaching at its
most inspired and inspiring–and the rewards are some of the best breads under
the sun. — Food52, Most Anticipated Cookbooks — Every Day with Rachael Ray,
