Wild Bread: Sourdough Reinvented by MaryJane Butters completely reinvents the concept of healthier-for-you, naturally fermented sourdough. Until now, sourdough was perceived as too much work and sour-tasting, artisan-style-only loaves. Here, her quick and easy 1 minute 2x/day technique demonstrates the use of eight different types of flours for each bread featured - everything from gluten-free brown-rice flour to quinoa to common white to heirloom whole wheat - for a grand total of 295 recipes and 475 photographs. This is an encyclopedic volume devoted to sourdough.

 

Using her step-by-step method, every style of bread imaginable, including gluten-free, will loft with wild abandon without the purchase of a single packet of not-so-healthy, store-bought yeast. In nutritionally superior wild-yeast bread, fermentation triggers the release of vital nutrients and breaks down carbohydrates. In MaryJane's world, there's no such thing as too much bread because once you convert to slow-rise wild-bread making, that bagel you've been thinking about is more like a vitamin pill than a source of "carb-loaded" guilt. I'm excited to try the author's recipe for sourdough bagels myself as I've been on a quest lately to find the best.
