About this product

Product Information

Co-founder of the legendary Brother Juniper's Bakery, author of the landmark books Brother Juniper's Bread Book and Crust & Crumb , and distinguished instructor at the world's largest culinary academy, Peter Reinhart has been a leader in America's artisanal bread movement for over fifteen years. Never one to be content with yesterday's baking triumph, however, Peter continues to refine his recipes and techniques in his never-ending quest for extraordinary bread. In The Bread Baker's Apprentice , Peter shares his latest bread breakthroughs, arising from his study in several of France's famed boulangeries and the always-enlightening time spent in the culinary academy kitchen with his students. Peer over Peter's shoulder as he learns from Paris's most esteemed bakers, like Lionel Poilane and Phillippe Gosselin, whose pain a l'ancienne has revolutionized the art of baguette making. Then stand alongside his students in the kitchen as Peter teaches the classic twelve stages of building bread, his clear instructions accompanied by over 100 step-by-step photographs. You'll put newfound knowledge into practice with 50 new master formulas for such classic breads as rustic ciabatta , hearty pain de campagne , old-school New York bagels, and the book's Holy Grail-Peter's version of the famed pain a l'ancienne . En route, Peter distills hard science, advanced techniques, and food history into a remarkably accessible and engaging resource that is as rich and multitextured as the loaves you'll turn out. This is original food writing at its most captivating, teaching at its most inspired and inspiring-and the rewards are some of the best breads under the sun. -- Food52, Most Anticipated Cookbooks -- Every Day with Rachael Ray, Round-Up

    Bake the very best bread at home

    I got this book on recommendation from a friend who went to culinary baking school who told me this was their text book for baking. Which actually intimidated me. I haven't gone to baking school, and I'm not a whiz in the kitchen. I can make great food if I follow a great recipe though--and that's what this is. Amazing. I now make free form loaf multigrain bread weekly for my family and have tried several of the other recipes. They've all turned out delicious. I've had a couple of fails--which were user error (trying to substitute to make up for something i didn't have on hand or not kneading enough). I highly recommend this if you want to try to achieve bakery quality breads at home.

  • The best bread making book I have purchased.

    I have purchased quite a few books on how to make bread this year and this is THE BEST of all of them. The easy to comprehend info along with step by step instructions are great. But what this book has more of than any other book I bought is LOTS of photographs to show you HOW to do it. Making bread at home is a very hands on process, and this book helped me tremendously.

  • Bread Baker's Apprentice - the finest for novice or pro

    Saw this first in SF, on Fisherman's Wharf. Bought when I got home (on E-bay). Wanted it to work with my sourdough starter (possibly over 100 years old!) Found more than enough theory and practical applications. Some recipes, but the book encourages you to understand the theory and biological performance of yeast and fermentation - this leads to the production of outstanding breads. My sourdough bread is no longer lumps of tangy flour conglomerations, but really very nicely textured, highly developed tartness, sourdough bread of the "mid-coast California" area. I have learned, from the book, to keep my starter in two batches; one wet, the other dry, enabling the flavors to be lactic or acetic in background. The book is a must for those wishing to make great bread, sweet or sour!

  • Informative and inspiring

    I've been baking bread for many years, but this book contains facts and techniques that are new to me. Recipes are well presented and explained, providing a springboard for variations and adaptations. The beautiful photos add to the pleasure of using this book, a boon to new and experienced bakers alike.

  • Highly Recommend

    This book is in great condition and was a real bargain. It's so informative and the bread I've made has been delicious. It's nice to know how and why bread works so I can make adjustments as needed to make sure I'm making the best bread! The photos are lovely and the instructions are clear.
