Critics Review
“There have been dozens of bread-baking books published over the past few years. So why is this compact book the one that finally got me to make my first starter? It’s all about the approach. This book is short, friendly, packed with helpful sidebars, and suggests that the first thing you make with your starter be pancakes (always a way into my heart). Yes, I know, sourdough is complicated, and those trendy door-stopping bread books probably have more details about how to not mess it up. But Sourdough on the Rise makes me believe I can make sourdough in a more relaxed way. Which is, frankly, the only way I’m ever going to get off my ass and do it.”
