Bread Baking for Beginners: The Essential Guide to Baking Kneaded Breads, No-Knead Breads, and Pastries by Bonnie Ohara (Hardcover)

An illustrated bread-baking handbook covering the fundamentals of yeast, hydration, and technique, with step-by-step recipes for kneaded, no-knead, and enriched breads. Bread Baking for Beginners is an illustrated handbook for home bakers starting from scratch. It introduces the four core ingredients of bread — flour, water, yeast, and salt — and walks readers through the techniques behind kneading, shaping, fermentation, and baking. Step-by-step photographs accompany each method.

The recipes progress from straightforward kneaded loaves and no-knead breads to enriched doughs such as brioche and challah, and the book includes a troubleshooting section addressing common issues like dense crumb, under-proofed dough, and pale crusts.
