true sourdough - takes some getting used to
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This book is super for how-to's on genuine old-fashioned sourdough techniques and recipes. The bread will not taste like todays modern vinegar-and-commercial yeast-added products (which are tasty, of course). The flavors take some getting used to for things like the cornbread sourdough and cinnamon rolls. Part of it is how much sugar the modern palate is used to. These recipes were from people who lived in the wilderness and traveled in wagon trains and therefore didn't have access to as much sugar as we do. The guys who write the book tell the stories of their time in the wilderness with Sourdough, which is really a nice backdrop to all the recipes. Their helpful hints and tips really work. I've liked every recipe i've tried so far. I would especially recommend this for anyone who is trying to live a more organic/natural/closer to the land sort of lifestyle, and those who live more rurally. It will mean running to the store for supplies far less often. I just tried it because I was curious.
A delightful "read", as well as neat recipes!!

I checked this book out from the local library, and read it cover-to-cover before even trying the recipes! Two young men had quite an adventure 180 miles north of Thompson, Manitoba, Canada...and in the course of their experiences came up with some wonderful recipes for Sourdough. If you want to get your baking back to basics, this is THE book!!
