The Village Baker revisited

Profile picture for user Marathon Nonni

Someone mentioned Joe Ortiz’ book The Village Baker . I remembered I met him I think at the Gilroy Garlic festival 20 yrs ago and had a signed copy ...as I wasn’t interested at the time in bread baking (just bread eating !) it sat on a shelf ..loaned to a friend ,..got it back yesterday and reading through it ..now it all starts to make sense ..it’s  a terrific resource...I just started my bread baking journey this January 1 ..recommended reading 

I’m learning each day ...this is one of the most satisfying adventures 

this is such a wonderful site and I appreciate all I’m learning from all of you

I agree, it's a classic and still holds up really well. Fantastic book.
