In this new book by Father Dominic (\"The Bread Monk\" of public television fame), you'll learn more than just basic techniques—you'll ?nd out why yeast behaves the way it does, how to substitute different flours in a recipe, and how to take a simple dough and make it extraordinary for a special occasion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStarting with tools of the trade (you need less than you think), Father Dom takes you through the baby steps of baking all the way to beautiful loaves that will amaze and delight your family and friends. Special attention is paid to kneading—a stumbling block for many beginning bakers—and simple shaping techniques that can make your loaves look terri?c. You'll ?nd braided loaves, flatbreads, pretzel bread and bagels, dinner rolls that look like roses, butterfly-shaped breakfast treats, and a muf?n recipe that uses a secret ingredient: melted ice cream! And all in Father Dom's funny and friendly style of instruction, with helpful photos and illustrations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reedy Press, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47039687000304,"sku":"9781935806370","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781935806370_p0.jpg?v=1763657687","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781935806370","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
