Seasoned bakers will relish deep dives into the science behind baking processes and expert information on how to build their baker's intuition and level up by experimenting with hydration, ingredient ratios, freshly milled grains, and specialty flours. Whether you're new to bread baking or a pro, The Perfect Loaf will be your indispensable guide in the kitchen.
