Having relocated to be close to my grandchildren, and having baked sourdough myself, this book was a perfect introduction to teaching them about sourdough, how special it is, how fun it can be, and helping them make great loaves for the family。 I highly recommend this book。 Thank you to NetGalley for an e-ARC of this title in exchange for my honest review。 I have also purchased my own hard copy。

Full disclosure- I didn’t read this book for my kids。 I love sourdough but a starter has always scared me。 I figured a book for kids may be easier for me to follow。 Not as overwhelming。 I was right。 The author talks you through each day and what your starter should look like。 Also how to troubleshoot if there’s an issue。 (Though starters are temperamental you may just have to start over on day 6) After figuring out your starter (go you) the author includes different loaves and different recipes Full disclosure- I didn’t read this book for my kids。 I love sourdough but a starter has always scared me。 I figured a book for kids may be easier for me to follow。 Not as overwhelming。 I was right。 The author talks you through each day and what your starter should look like。 Also how to troubleshoot if there’s an issue。 (Though starters are temperamental you may just have to start over on day 6) After figuring out your starter (go you) the author includes different loaves and different recipes to use with your starter。 (Sweet & savory) I also learned English muffins and crumpets are not the same thing。 The more you know。 This book would be wonderful for kids (hello science lesson & yummy treats) but it’s also terrific for people that need sourdough spelled out for them step by step。 。。。more

I received a copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review。This is a thorough book!I didn't get on the sourdough train early in the pandemic because I found the process confusing。 This book is really helpful in understanding how it works and what to do!

Amazing cookbook! I think I'll finally be able to make some sourdough bread。 This book is easy to follow, clean and very clear, and the pictures are very nice。 I can't wait to start making my own bread。 I'll come back and edit my review once my bread is ready。 I received a free digital copy of this book from Edelweiss in exchange for my honest review。 Amazing cookbook!
