Tartine Bread

Want to learn the technique and art of making homemade bread? This book is for you.

The bread at San Francisco's legendary Tartine Bakery sells out within an hour almost every day. This distinctive bread was developed by renowned baker Chad Robertson over a decade of working with the finest artisan bakers in the United States and France, followed by another decade of baking solo in a small wood-fired oven on the coast of Northern California. 

Now it's your turn to make this bread with your own hands. Clear instructions and hundreds of step-by-step photos put you by Chad's side as he shows you how to make exceptional and elemental bread using just flour, water, and salt. 

Chad then explains how it all works and shows how variations from the master recipe lead to wonderfully diverse breads. Soon you will be able to create your own unique and personal loaf. Also included are more than 30 sweet and savory recipes using the day-old bread to make sandwiches, classic soups, puddings, delicious baked French toast, and an addictive Kale Caesar.
