<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Master bread baker and innovator Peter Reinhart has improved and simplified his groundbreaking delayed fermentation method to successfully meet the whole grain challenge with less hands-on time in the kitchen. The definitive guide to baking incredible and healthful artisan-quality bread includes recipes for both partial and 100-percent whole grain hearth, sandwich, and specialty breads.Ten Speed Press<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>In this follow-up to his award-winning book <i>The Bread Baker's Apprentice</i>, Peter Reinhart offers groundbreaking methods for baking whole grain breads that taste better than any you've ever had.</b> <p/>We know whole grain breads are better for us, but will we actually eat them, much less take time to bake them? <p/>Yes, says beloved baking instructor Peter Reinhart, but only if they are very, <i>very</i> good. So Reinhart, with his decades of experience crafting amazing artisanal breads, has made it his mission to create whole grain breads that are nothing short of incredible. <p/>And because his approach is also simpler and less labor intensive than conventional techniques, you'll <i>choose</i> to make and eat these breads. His fifty-five recipes for whole grain sandwich, hearth, and specialty breads, plus bagels, crackers, and more, incorporate widely available whole wheat flour as well as other flours and grains such as rye, barley, steel-cut oats, cornmeal, and quinoa. Each is so rich with flavor and satisfying texture that white-flour counterparts pale in comparison. <p/>Written in Reinhart's famously clear style and accompanied by inspiring photographs, these recipes were perfected with the help of nearly 350 testers. Introductory chapters provide a tutorial, with step-by-step photographs, of the delayed fermentation method that is at the heart of these recipes, as well as a crash course in baking science, discussions of grains other than wheat, and more. Advanced bakers will relish Reinhart's innovative techniques and exacting scientific explanations, and beginning bakers will rejoice in the ease of baking wholesome breads with such extraordinary flavor.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"We've always known how good whole grain breads are for us, but we've also known how they're usually heavy, dense, and sort of boring.

His work is nothing short of revolutionary." <p/>-Sara Moulton, Food Network host and author of <i>Sara's Secrets for Weeknight Meals</i><br> <p/>"No one is better qualified-either as a teacher or as a baker-than Peter Reinhart to tackle the complex subject of whole grain breads. His techniques and recipes are easy to follow and yield excellent results every time. Peter and his breads are the real thing." <p/>-Nick Malgieri, author of <i>How to Bake</i> and <i>A Baker's Tour</i> <p/>"<i>Whole Grain Breads</i> is a beautiful and important work, which is no big surprise coming, as it does, from Peter Reinhart. Everything here is a gift: the breads themselves (both described and pictured), the poetic voice, the story, the technique, and the generous spirit. Read this from cover to cover, and you will find yourself looking at all food differently, from a new height and a deeper appreciation." <p/>-Mollie Katzen, author of <i>The Moosewood Cookbook</i> <p/> <br>"I've spent years following directions from more than a dozen bread baking books. I've babied bowls of dough in various stages of fermentation, and I've only ended up with bread that tastes like an inner tube. Peter has unraveled the mystery of baking, and I now approach this intimidating subject with confidence." <p/>-James Peterson, author of <i>Cooking <p/></i>"Peter Reinhart is a gifted teacher who explains the science of bread dough in easy-to-understand language.
