Title:
10-Minute Sourdough: Breadmaking for Real Life

Condition: BRAND NEW
Format: Hardcover

Overview:
Meet a practical, people‑first guide to sourdough. Vanessa Kimbell’s 10-Minute Sourdough makes bread baking accessible for real life, without sacrificing flavour or texture. This foolproof approach is designed for busy households, stripping away the fear and fuss that can put people off baking. Each recipe requires only 10 minutes of active work in total, with fermentation and resting doing the heavy lifting in the background. From a classic sourdough boule to a bright tomato focaccia and an apple‑spelt sourdough enriched with cinnamon butter, the collection demonstrates how one dough can yield a spectrum of flavours and textures. The no‑knead method keeps hands‑on time low while delivering crusty, aromatic loaves you’ll be proud to share. Real life means busy mornings, school runs, and weekend meal prepping—this book recognises that and delivers reliable results you can repeat week after week. Vanessa’s warm, encouraging voice guides you gently through the process, helping you build a bread‑baking habit that fits around work, family, and study.

What Makes This Book Stand Out:
This is sourdough made genuinely compatible with modern life. The book champions a 10‑minute active workflow for every recipe, so you can mix, shape, and bake with minimal time at the bench. It brings together a curated range of loaf ideas—from a reliable boule to comforting focaccias and fruit‑forward loaves—each designed for practical baking at home. The method stays faithful to flavour and crumb while prioritising ease, rhythm, and repeatable results. You’ll find clearly explained steps, simple equipment, and precise timing that respects fermentation as a key part of depth and aroma. The recipes are accessible to beginners yet rewarding for seasoned bakers seeking efficiency without compromise. And the endorsement from respected voices in food science adds credibility to the book’s approach to bread that’s both delicious and doable.

Who This Book Is Perfect For:
Ideal for first‑time sourdough bakers who want reliable, tasty results with minimal active time, as well as busy households seeking weekly bread without dedicating their whole day to baking. It’s great for students cooking in small kitchens, freelancers, and anyone who loves the idea of fresh, wholesome bread but needs a practical plan. Gift buyers will appreciate the thoughtful balance of technique, flavour, and real‑life practicality. If you enjoy approachable, hands‑on cooking that still feels premium, this book is a perfect companion for your kitchen shelf and your weekly meal planning.
