Hi, I've just joined the forum and saw this section and so I thought I'd recommend to all of you the book that brought me here. This is a fantastic and interesting read for anyone who wants to make bread. I am a newbie to bread making - I've made the occasional loaf that have turned out ok. But I have tired of shop bought bread and can't afford artisan bread and so decided that now is the time to start seriously making my own bread. I bought 'Brilliant Bread' intending to work my way through some of the bread recipes, but got highjacked by the chapter on sourdough!
I've got a starter on the go, and I think it is reasonably good and will soon take the plunge and use it to make a loaf!! So excited! But got some questions and so off to ask them on the forum ....
