Tassajara Bread Book

Paperback192 pagesDimensions: 7.26 x 9.23 inches Bread baking can be an intimidating endeavor for the first time. At least it was for us, until we pulled out our mother's worn copy of the Tassajara Bread Book and followed its simple, casual instructions. This is not bread from a fancy bakery, this is healthy wholesome bread from a cook at a meditation center in 1970 (because that's who wrote it). They focus on whole wheat, large batch, and healthy recipes for the home cook. Each recipe starts with a simple description that sounds like your favorite uncle is describing his breakfast. Mostly yeasted breads, nice intro to sourdough, good amount of quick breads and treats.
