Sourdough: A Complete Guide and Recipe Book

A wonderful collection of 90 taste-tested recipes for sourdough breads, as well as sweets and savories such as brioche, sweet buns, traditional panettone, pancakes, bagels, pizza and more. Each recipe calls for organic and locally available ingredients, and is tested for the home kitchen.

The book also contains all the information you need to start your sourdough journey and instructions for every step of the way. From maintaining and feeding your starter to general rules of sourdough making and finally baking.

'Kneading bread is a ritual consisting of actions: composed and measured movements, with slow rhythmic manual skill, like a pulsing.'

Arthur Riccardo Astolfi has a passion for organic foods (he buys it, sells it, tastes it, produces it and eats it) and in his spare time he reads and writes articles for various magazines in the sector. He uses sourdough bread and rigorously improvises other dishes at least once a week.
