The Bread Baker's Apprentice: Mastering the Art of Extraordinary Bread
Peter Reinhart

Ten Speed Press, 2001

Beautiful book, delicious bread...
I'm an idiot baker, but a little snooty about the bread I buy. So when I turned out the best baguette I've probably ever had, inside or outside of France, I knew this was a keeper. The book looks too pretty to be useful, but it rocks. Want the chemistry behind baking? ...
