I liked seeing how to make bread, especially sourdough but I felt like this book could have included more ideas and things to try.

Sourdough simplified.

I love how easily accessible this cookbook is for any home cook. Whether you've made 1,000 loafs or if you have never even made starter, all the information you need can be found within these pages. Easy to follow instructions and techniques paired with amazing photos will have you churning out bread in no time.

I absolutely loved baking the recipes out of this book. I love baking anyway especially bread so when I saw that there was this book all about bread. I AM HERE FOR IT!

This was the perfect addition to my favorite quarantine hobby-raising and feeding my sourdough starter. I followed some of the suggestions in this manual, but not all. I give it 3.5 stars just for the pure fun.

Have not had a chance to read this yet, but will keep it on my list for a rainy day! Appreciate being offered the reading copy!

How to raise a loaf? A good question! Never in my life imagining making my own bread from scratch. They got the ready made packages, just add some ingredients. Or there's this yeast you can pour into your dough. Or simply bought one ready made.

But this book taught me a lot on the famous sourdough bread. At least I can see the difference from other breads. Having lived in the southern France, I know fougasse quite well. And mentioned in this book, I was convinced that this is the real deal.

Am waiting for the motivation to make one arrive, meanwhile I'm gonna pored over this book a few more times.

This was a lovely book. I got into bread baking, and my natural extension, sourdough starter, during the quarantine. My starter, Jane Dough, lives in the refrigerator and gets regular feeding. I'm an experienced bread maker, but the sourdough loaves gave me some trouble.
This book helped a lot. It walks through the techniques step-by-step, which would be especially helpful for new bakers. The pictures were very good, and it makes a difference to see pictures of the steps instead of just the finished product. 5 stars.

Thanks to Laurence King Publishing Ltd and NetGalley for the ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I was unable to download this onto my device :( I do feel like perhaps the cover is a little busy with all the writing. Hopefully, this feedback will be helpful best of luck.

How to Raise a Loaf gives step by step information on making sourdough. It offered so many tips and techniques to give bakers confidence. While I will probably still stick mainly to basic bread making, I highly recommend this book for those who feel overwhelmed by the sourdough process.

*received for free from netgalley for honest review* This is a really great sourdough guide! would love to own a copy, has some really great tips!

I really enjoyed this one. With bread making being such a popular activity just this quarantine, this book was exactly what I needed. Well written and very informative.

Brilliant book! Made my first ever loaf! Full of information on bread making! And made it fun! Must read for all bread makers!

This is perfect for an aspiring Paul Hollywood. It gives all the basics of how to cultivate a starter to begin your journey into the world of sourdough and then goes on to detail a number of amazing recipes you can use your starter in to become a bread connoisseur.

I really enjoyed this book. Like many others, I have started to make sourdough bread during the pandemic lockdowns. I liked all the recipes in the book and can't wait to try all of them! The ingredients listed in the book are easy to find, staple ingredients, which is definitely a plus for me. The pictures in the book are also very amazing (and looks mouth-watering). The only thing I found that bothered me a little was the use of Celsius instead of Fahrenheit for the oven temperature as this book is for the UK audience.
Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for providing me with an ARC for an honest review!

This is a gorgeous book with lots of good information for bakers of all skill levels who want to make bread. The book covers the basic through the intricacies of bread baking! This is such a well written resource for starting into making your own bread.

Another good book on how to start a sourdough mix but this one only includes 15 recipes to follow once you have your starter.

Also includes techniques and how to get started. Plenty of colour photography throughout.

I received this book from Netgalley in return for a honest review.

I loved how this cookbook wasn't just a cookbook but had a story to go along with it. If you are new to sourdough this is a wonderful book for you. I tried the basic loaf and it turn our amazing. The book had wonderful step by step photos and lets you know everything you need to get your own sourdough journey going and fall in love with baking this masterpiece.

Thank you for the NetGalley and Laurence King Publishing Ltd for my eARC of this wonderful cookbook in exchange for my honest review.

Like many of the country at the moment, we have become a little obsessed with baking our own bread. I laso think I'm a little late of the sourdough party and was hoping this would give me the introduction that I needed to make my own sourdough baby.

I was not disappointed, I found it the perfect introduction to the work of bread and sourdough. pictures are clear and beautifully shot, there enoug technical information to help you understand why things are done and when. Perfect introduction guide for any new baker (Poppy Seed rolls are addictive!)

I consume anything having to do with baking sourdough so I super enjoyed through here and perusing the beautiful photos. Have marked a few recipes to try, looking forward to it.
