Cooking & Food. Nonfiction. HTML:NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER ? From Portland's most acclaimed and beloved baker comes this must-have baking guide, featuring recipes for world-class breads and pizzas and a variety of schedules suited for the home baker.
There are few things more satisfying than biting into a freshly made, crispy-on-the-outside, soft-and-supple-on-the-inside slice of perfectly baked bread. For Portland-based baker Ken Forkish, well-made bread is more than just a pleasure??it is a passion that has led him to create some of the best and most critically lauded breads and pizzas in the country.
In Flour Water Salt Yeast, Forkish translates his obsessively honed craft into scores of recipes for rustic boules and Neapolitan-style pizzas, all suited for the home baker. Forkish developed and tested all of the recipes in his home oven, and his impeccable formulas and clear instructions result in top-quality artisan breads and pizzas that stand up against those sold in the best bakeries anywhere.
Whether you??re a total beginner or a serious baker, Flour Water Salt Yeast 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. If you??re ready to take your baking to the next level, follow Forkish??s step-by-step guide to making a levain starter with only flour and water, and be amazed by the delicious complexity of your naturally leavened bread. Pizza lovers can experiment with a variety of doughs and sauces to create the perfect pie using either a pizza stone or a cast-iron skillet.
Flour Water Salt Yeast is more than just a collection of recipes for amazing bread and pizza??it offers a complete baking education, with a thorough yet accessible explanation of the tools and techniques that set artisan bread apart. 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 bre

Very technical guide to breadmaking, in case you want to obsess over making bread. I'm happy with my level of skill, and don't feel the need to delve deeply into these techniques. I also don't need the responsibility and work of keeping a levain alive. This is not the book to get if you just want to learn to bake bread.

And as some other reviewers mentioned, oh the privilege on display. Yikes. ( )

A journey from tech employment to becoming a successful baker. The narrative was interesting, much like the evolution of learning to bake bread products, as told by Sam Fromartz In Search of the Perfect Loaf. In FWSY, the author supplies easy to follow recipes and detailed techniques.

One flaw in the presentation was the focus on recipes with rather minor adjustments to create a different product. Maybe in professional baking facilities and processes, as well as reliance on a Dutch oven mode of cooking, this might be useful.
In a standard home kitchen, not so much. There were comments about managing pre-ferments, like poolish and biga, adjusting conditions to achieve a good fermentation and bulk proofing however, which make this a useful reference cookbook. ( )

It might seem like cheating for me to include a cookbook in my “books read this year” list, but this isn’t a book of recipes so much as a book about how to bake bread that also includes recipes. It’s packed with details while still being easy to follow and it’s suitable for any skill level, so I can see why it’s a “bread bible” for so many people. I’ve also been extremely happy with the bread I’ve made with its guidance. (As of this review, I’ve only made the white bread with poolish, but I did it twice and it turned out perfectly both times.)

I first learned how to bake bread from my mom, but I’ve had to unlearn just about all of her techniques. (For one thing, you really do need to measure by weight instead of volume, so even though Ken includes volume measurements in the book, please spring for a digital scale like he recommends!) I also make a pretty damn good soft sandwich bread using a straight dough that takes about 4 hours to be ready from start to finish, but this book is really going to take my bread game to a new level. I had always been too intimidated by the technical details of using pre-ferments and measuring the dough’s temperature, but this book breaks everything down into layperson-accessible steps and anticipates a lot of the problems you might encounter.

It’s all great! Looking forward to making more and more of the recipes and coming up with one I can call my own. ( )
