Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Tuscan white bean dip

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute parchment paper for cornmeal. See recipe for a variation.

    When made with sourdough, the most delicious of all the Francois & Hertzberg breads. I add 1 + 1/2 cups sourdough, reducing AP flour & water accordingly. Preferring more whole grains, I make the recipes in their Healthy Bread book more often. But for us this is tops for flavor, & fast-disappearing.

    Probably my most-used recipe. Deeply satisfying baked as a loaf or baguette. Delicious as pizza or flatbread dough, too.

    Rustic, tasty, delicious.
