Summary

Vetri and McWilliams are part of the American movement to reclaim high-quality bread as a cornerstone of our food culture. Here they share recipes for sourdough and yeast loaves, breaking down the process of bread-making into three steps: Mix, Shape, and Bake. While they explain how to use fresh milled and whole-grain flours as well as local and regional wheat varieties, they include instructions for adapting to whatever flour is available in your market.
