Whether you’re a total beginner or a serious baker, Flour Water Salt Yeas t has a recipe that suits your skill level and time constraints: Start with a straight dough and have fresh bread ready by supper time, or explore pre-ferments with a bread that uses biga or poolish. Featuring a tutorial on baker’s percentages, advice for manipulating ingredients ratios to create custom doughs, tips for adapting bread baking schedules to fit your day-to-day life, and an entire chapter that demystifies the levain-making process, Flour Water Salt Yeast is an indispensable resource for bakers who want to make their daily bread exceptional bread. Winner, IACP Awards 2013 - Baking: Savory or Sweet. Winner, James Beard Foundation Award 2013 - Baking and Dessert “If books full of stunning bread porn — all craggy crusts, yeasty bubbles and floured work surfaces — are your thing, here's Flour Water Salt Yeast by Ken Forkish.” —Eater National. "Legendary Portland baker Ken Forkish (of the watershed Ken's Artisan Bakery and much-loved Ken's Artisan Pizza) has joined the ranks of the lauded letterers with his mammoth new cookbook Water Flour Salt Yeast: The Fundamentals of Artisan Bread and Pizza. "Divided into four sections (“The Principles of Artisan Bread,” “Basic Bread Recipes,” “Levain Bread Recipes,” and “Pizza Recipes”), with recipes broken down by breads made with store-bought yeast, breads made with long-fermented simple doughs, and doughs made with pre-ferments, the book presents recipes accessible to novices, while providing a different approach for making dough to experienced bakers. The man abandoned his past, courageously stepped off the cliff and followed his passion, and the result has been a gift to all of us: great breads, fabulous pizzas, and now this beautiful book— Flour Water Salt Yeast —in which he reveals all.” —Peter Reinhart, author of Artisan Breads Every Day and The Joy of Gluten-Free, Sugar-Free Baking “Ken nails it, end of story, when it comes to the best levain bread or the thinnest, most perfect pizza crust you’ve ever had.

Find Best Price at Amazon"First off, if you are looking for a book of great, simple recipes that you can throw in the breadmaker real quick once you get home, this is NOT the book for you. You will learn how to literally use temperature and times as ingredients and how these can make bread made with the very same ingredients VERY different. The recipes are for lean dough, non-enriched breads, made straight, with delayed fermentation, and finally as pure sourdough. This book is a fantastic stepping stone for more varied texts (Bread Bible, Bread Baker's Apprentice, and the all but sacred bread text "The Taste of Bread" by Raymond Calvel)."
"But what Ken Forkish has done here is not simply to give you recipes, but to teach you to think with the flexibility that bread baking demands, and to also demand creativity out of you to go past what's in the book. There's a fantastic section on how to make recipes your own, whether it be about flour choices (and the different hydration requirements that some flours require), rearranging schedules to make your bread revolve around your life, the various options you have with levains, how to document your experimentation so that you can reproduce the results the next time."

"Perfect follow-up/bookend if your only real experience with Bourdain was "Kitchen Confidential.""
"Love Anthony Bourdain, so this was a great interview."
"Delightful person...totally upfront and "out there" ....prompted me to read his book "Kitchen Confidential"...which I am totally enjoying."
"Anthony Bourdain's book is a "no holds barred" expose of what happens in the kitchen without the customers' knowledge."
"It may be a bit ironic to write a review about this interview considering its content, but the restaurant world - the world in general - would be a better place if more people listened to Anthony Bourdain."
"I am glad I have read this interview, my husband is a Chef, and, it is almost an unbelievable difficult job, mainly if you want to do it the right way...thanks God we are over it, raised two wonderful boys, one is a successful hotelier who with two partners, they created a successful concept in Miami, and the other works for a Hotel Corp. Mister Bourdain, I could not sometimes understand your boldness projected through your programs, sometimes bordering the line of arrogance, yet, after reading and understanding you better, I do take my hat off!."
"It was a very short read."
Best Pie Baking
One of 2016’s. BEST COOKBOOKS. *, THE Pie-Baking Bible. **, an. INSTANT CLASSIC. ***, with raves from NPR, Oprah.com, USA Today, Bon Appetit, Cosmopolitan, Outlander Kitchen, and more. With pioneer spirit she throws the textbook out the window and comes up with absolutely perfect crust filled with fruit that actually sings to you, telling you when it’s ready to be removed from the oven.”. - Ruth Reichl, Former editor of Gourmet, Author of Tender at the Bone and Comfort Me with Apples among other titles. Kate’s recipes are logical and easy to follow, her hints and tricks helpful to even the most experienced pie baker. What really blew our mind was her recipe for a gluten-free nutty no-bake crust that we want to eat with a gooey chocolate filling at the next pie opportunity. More importantly, however, she exudes the passion and joy we all hope to see in our mentors―the obvious reason that her pie camps and workshops regularly sell out. “McDermott, a self-taught baker whose workshops have taught hundreds how to make a proper pie, shares that knowledge in one of the best books written on the topic. Those expecting a quick preamble followed by hundreds of pie recipes will be sorely disappointed―basic instructions take up a third of the book―but readers interested in the hows and whys of pie-making will find McDermott’s tutelage invaluable…McDermott excels, giving readers an informative guide they will be referring to for years to come.”. - Publisher’s Weekly, *STARRED REVIEW*.
