Modern Sourdough by Michelle Eshkeri

The author of this book opened a bakery because she realized there was a need for such a shop in her neighborhood. She is self-trained and has learned much over time and in this book shares some of what she has learned. That her bakery is thriving is something that does not always happen in this economy. And I applaud her for opening the shop and sharing her wisdom and recipes with the world.

Why did I want to read/review this book? First, I have a sister who can only eat sourdough bread at the moment and I thought that if this book was easy to read and had good directions I would recommend it to her since she said she might take up bread baking again and pursue sourdough bread making since that is what she can eat. Second, I have made sourdough in the past while living in countries where I could not find yeast or when I wanted to just see if I could make it and make bread from it. Third, I like cookbooks.

This book has over 100 recipes and I was amazed at how many types of bread can be made with sourdough starter. I loved the idea that so many varieties are out there and all doable with sourdough.

What I liked:
* The gorgeous photographs
* The specific instructions
* The details on making the sourdough and keeping it alive
* The ease with which I could visualize the process by reading the instructions
* The information about recipes in the book – especially those from other countries
* The way I could almost taste the bread as I looked at the photos
* The desire I had when I finished to start making sourdough starter

From muffins and pancakes to laminated pastry and from a daily tasty loaf to tiny filled delicacies this book will have something for everyone. That said...I am off to write to my sister (or her son) to recommend this is purchased for her to read and try baking from. I can see her pizza making husband also enjoying this book.

Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group-White Lion Publishing for the ARC – This is my honest review.
