NewTitles_LBF2016_interior.indd 42
The ancient art of making bread has evolved through generations, but in the modern kitchen one important ingredient is left out: time. Expert bakers will tell you that a long-proved loaf has more time to develop flavour and has a better texture. In Slow Dough: Real Bread learn secrets from the professionals to make a huge array of savoury and sweet slow-rise breads at home. Whether you want to make a Fig and Fennel Sourdough, a Fougasse flatbread or a Christmas Bread, in this book you’ll learn how to make starters for different breads, as well as the fundamental processes: fermenting, kneading, first proof, last rising, and baking. In a world of mass-production and redundant additives – bread being among the worst offenders – this book, about real craftsmanship, is like a breath of fresh air. Chris Young is Campaign Co-ordinator for The Real Bread Campaign. Chris edits the quarterly magazine True Loaf, and wrote Knead to Know – the campaign’s first book. His work has appeared in publications including Spear’s Magazine, The Real Food Cookbook and the London ethical food magazine, The Jellied Eel, which he also edits.
