KELLY'S OWN SOURDOUGH HANDBOOK Starter Care, Troubleshooting, and 100 Recipes
Sourdough looks like magic until you understand what's actually happening in the jar. Kelly's Own Sourdough Handbook pulls back the curtain: what wild yeast and bacteria are really doing to your dough, why your starter isn't rising, and how to fix it before you give up.
Inside, you'll find:
- A complete, day-by-day guide to building a starter from nothing but flour and water
- Clear answers to the questions every beginner asks - why is my starter runny, why does it smell strange, why won't it double
- The core technique behind every great loaf: autolyse, fold, shape, score, bake
- 100 tested recipes spanning classic loaves, enriched breads, rolls, flatbreads, savory specialty loaves, international styles, and desserts - plus an entire section devoted to discard, so nothing goes to waste
- Troubleshooting tables, hydration charts, and a full glossary you'll come back to again and again
Whether you're feeding your first starter this week or you've been baking for years and want fresh recipes to add to the rotation, this is the handbook that turns kitchen guesswork into confident, repeatable results - one well-explained technique and one well-tested recipe at a time.
