Making bread is an ancient craft; kneading the dough to lovingly produce a loaf is a fulfilling experience. But in the modern kitchen, one important ingredient is often left out of bread making: time. The experienced bakers from the Real Bread Campaign will tell you that long and slow is far more satisfying than a quick finish. A long-proved loaf has more time to develop flavour, has a better texture and, in the case of genuine sourdough, might actually have health benefits.

In Slow Dough: Real Bread learn secrets from the experts to make a huge array of slow-rise breads at home. Whether you want to make a Fig and Fennel Sourdough, a Fougasse flatbread or a Christmas Bread, in these recipes you'll learn how to make different starters for different breads, as well as the fundamental processes: fermenting, kneading, first proof, last rising, and baking. In a world of mass-production and redundant additives (bread being among the worst offenders), this book, about real craftsmanship, is like a breath of fresh air.
