    The Art of Baking Bread by Matt Pellegrini is the bread book I wish I had read when I first started baking bread. ...This book teaches those basics. Oh, sure, it has some recipes, too, but not many.

Sidestep years of unwarranted trial and error and learn to bake like a professional without having to go to school, read book after book, or spend countless hours scouring the internet searching for answers to your most pressing questions. With over 230 color photographs, more than 150 detailed step-by-step instructions covering basic to advanced techniques, and over 200 tips and sidebars filled with invaluable information and troubleshooting advice, along with comprehensive, yet practical, explanations of ingredients, equipment, and the entire bread-baking process, The Art Of Baking Bread: What You Really Need to Know to Make Great Bread will teach you to work, move, think, anticipate, smell, feel, and, ultimately, taste like a professional artisan baker. The Art Of Baking Bread accomplishes what no other book does--teaching you what the professionals know but don't tell you--and does so in a way that anyone can understand. In the end, you'll possess exceptional know-how and confidence, as well as a precise, easy to understand blueprint for creating baguettes, ciabatta, focaccia, brioche, challah, sourdough, and virtually any other variety that will make your bread the envy of every baker around--professional or otherwise.
