Haputainas - alustame algusest. Võta aeg maha ja küpseta

by James Morton

Haputainaleib või -sai on küpsetis, mida sõid tsiviliseeritud lääne inimesed enne kaubandusliku pagaripärmi kasutuselevõttu. Pärmi asemel kergitavad leiba loomulikul teel tekkinud pärmseened ja bakterid.

„Haputainas – alustame algusest“ selgitab lihtsalt, kuidas haputainast valmistada ning seda küpsetada.

Raamat õpetab:
millest ja kuidas alustada.
millised on haputaina põhikoostisained.
kuidas teha juuretist.
kuidas valmistada maaleiba.
kuidas saada kuldset ja läikivat koorikut.

Lihtsate näpunäidetega raamatust leiad lisaks mitmeid retsepte, et valmistada näiteks nupsusaiu, vesikringleid või näkileibu.

Võta aeg maha ja küpseta ise oma perele mõnusaid saiu-leibu.

I have yet to try any of the strategies or recipes from this book, so I can't truly give it an accurate review. But I have never made bread from scratch, let alone sourdough, and this book has convinced me to give it a go. Lots of practical explanations and step-by-step walkthroughs for newbie bread bakers.

Must say I quite liked it! It’s one that can be left near an oven/on a kitchen counter due to its convenient pocket size.

Everything you might need is inside:
- how to start your starter from scratch and how to feed it,
- recommended equipment/ingredients,
- one very detailed recipe - from beginning to a baked loaf,
- troubleshooting,
- 9 recipes,
- good old Morton humour 🙂.

What I did not like is that he counts the starter as part of total quantity of flour and water (ie if a recipe calls for 450g of flour, the extra 50g are in the starter, to make it all the way to 500g).
I can easily say the majority of professional bakers never do that, but hey… if you wanna make it a tad bit complicated, fine. 🤷🏻‍♀️😆

Can recommend. 👍🏼

So good for unraveling the mysteries of sourdough! It helped me understand why things have been working or not working with my own sourdough and I’ve definitely become a better baker because of this book. The pizza dough recipe and method is excellent, especially if you want to get a classic Italian pizza crust without the pizza oven.

I have been making sourdough for over a year but felt that I wasn’t quite getting it. The insights in this book are very helpful though I was still left confused about certain aspects. However I have just made my first loaf following the instructions given here and it is my best to date. I look forward to practicing and perfecting my technique now.

Muy buen libro para aprender las bases de la masa madre. En un comienzo me costó lograr que comenzara a fermenta pero luego de un tiempo lo conseguí. Si bien las recetas son pocas, son suficientes para comenzar. Y se pueden lograr buenos resultados.

I got this book at the beginning of my sourdough journey, and it was too detailed for a starting point for me. But now that I’m an active starter and several loaves in, it was a helpful source to connect together some of what I’ve learned along the way.

Amazing little book for the ones who love home sourdough bread baking including basic tips, easy to do recepies and some beautiful and inspiring photographs to get you baking!

Simple guide to making sourdough. Tried the pain de mie au levain recipe, it was ok. Didn’t rise much and couldn’t fill a 9x4x4” Pullman pan completely

This is such a fantastic guide to sourdough and I love the recipes in here - especially the San Francisco style recipe!

Really useful to have the troubleshooting section and it's definitely helped to improve my bread. I think all sourdough bakers can learn something from this, whether just starting out or if they're more experienced bakers looking for some different recipes to try.

Highly recommend this for anyone looking to begin or get better at baking sourdough bread.

52 Book club: #29 sends you down a rabbit hole. Read this one after seeing lots of reference to it on online sourdough groups. It will be the first of many books on this topic. I'm hooked!
