2016 James Beard Award Winner (Baking & Desserts)

101 recipes for baking with whole and sprouted grains, making the most of the seasonal harvest, and healing the body through naturally fermented food

Sarah Owens spent years baking conventional baked goods, only to slowly realize she had developed a crippling inability to digest or tolerate their ingredients. Unable to enjoy many of her most favorite foods, she knew she must find a health-sustaining alternative. Thus Sarah started experimenting with sourdough leavening, which almost immediately began to heal her gut and inspire her anew in the kitchen. Soon after, her artisan small-batch bakery, BK17, was launched, and with that, a new way to savor and share nutritious sourdough breads and treats with her Brooklyn community.

Sourdough and other fermented foods are making a comeback because of their rich depth of flavor and proven health benefits. In Sourdough, Sarah demystifies keeping a sourdough culture, which is an extended fermentation process that allows for maximum flavor and easy digestion, showing us just how simple it can be to create a healthy starter from scratch. Moreover, Sarah uses home-grown sourdough starter in dozens of baked goods, including cookies, cakes, scones, flatbreads, tarts, and more--well beyond bread. Sarah is a botanist and gardener as well as a baker--her original recipes are accented with brief natural history notes of the highlighted plants and ingredients used therein. Anecdotes from the garden will delight naturalists and baked-goods lovers among us. Laced with botanical and cultural notes on grains, fruits and vegetables, herbs, and even weeds, Sourdough celebrates seasonal abundance alongside the timeless craft of artisan baking.

Product description

Review

“If you’ve been mystified by sourdough, allow Sarah Owens to be your guide. This creative and immensely talented baker incorporates it into everything—from cookies and biscuits to cakes and, of course, glorious breads. You will want to eat every recipe in this stunningly photographed book.”—Maria Speck, award-winning author of Simply Ancient Grains and Ancient Grains for Modern Meals

"If you love baking bread and are fascinated by the mysteries of sourdough, Owens' new book is a way in for novices and a fun read for those who already know their way around natural levain. This is also a great book for gardeners, as Owens give primers on things like making your own lilac sugar and elder flower cordial."-Los Angeles Times

"Sourdough has a new champion with some unusual moves . . . so intriguing."-Minneapolis Star Tribune

"In addition to a wide range of creative and versatile recipes, Sourdough highlights the joy of working in season with the power of microbes in one of our most loved foods: bread. Sarah’s tasty creations and intimate interactions with the natural world inspire us to trust the life forces that contribute to the health of our inner and outer ecosystems—she inspires a more thoughtful experience with food."—Tara Whitsitt, Founder of Fermentation on Wheels

"It's an attractive book and intriguing read . . . [Sourdough's] another big boy on the book front, as gardener/artisan baker Owen's book shares here journey toward fresh food and healthy grains and the role sourdough played."-The Clarion Ledger

Gourmet Sourdough Cookbook

Reviewed in Canada on February 18, 2020

Verified Purchase

This is a beautiful hardback recipe book, nice to handle and it sits open at the recipes. It is somewhat gourmet and most of the recipes require specialty grocery sources or foraging so I gave it four stars. Other than that, one can probably adapt most of the recipes to a more familiar list of ingredients. There are detailed instructions for making a loaf of artisan sourdough bread and a different method for making starter from scratch. Lovely photos.

This is a gorgeous book with stunning pictures of each recipe. The instruction is clear on how to get into the world of sourdough and what one needs to get started. Sarah speaks with the voice of someone with a true passion for food and eating per the season.
Only aspect I found challenging is depending on where you live the fresh ingredients may be difficult to source.

A brilliant new take on sourdough baking, broadening the use of sourdough in the context of the seasons. Owens is beyond passionate in her connection with nature and uses her deep knowledge to infuse the recipes with more than just good taste. Any keen bread baker will feel that s/he has entered an enchanted garden in which you will want to live from now on.

Very good book

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 3, 2020

Verified Purchase

This is a very good book with many tasty recipes and generally sensible instructions and ingredients. There are two reasons it falls short of a 5 star book for me, though. (1) the temps are all in Fahrenheit, which is really annoying for non-US buyers of this book. It would have been so easy to include temps in Celsius, as other recipe books do. (2) Some of the recipes were not carefully checked and have big mistakes in them. For example the two pizza recipes skip over key steps in the preparation of the dough and are best ignored. But this is still my favourite recipe book and certainly worth buying.

Good allrounder!

I love this book as a novice sourdough baker. I've made plenty of the recipes with great success and even managed to modify a few with great results. My favourite is the jalapeno cheddar, followed closely by the Lumber Jane loaf. Once I've gotten used to sourdough, I find it quite forgiving.

Interesting but

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 26, 2020

Verified Purchase

I have been making Sourdough for 5 years and wanted some new ideas.
This book certainly has some interesting recipes particularly for other uses for sourdough culture.
Bear in mind this book is American and it’s not possible to get all the ingredients here in the UK. Also gives oven temperatures in Fahrenheit.
The book is sorted into 4 seasons so I find myself having to use the index quite a bit.
Most bread recipes are for 2 loaves but the are a lot smaller than I normally make so I have had to adapt the quantity of ingredients.

Superb book!

I LOVE this book, I love the fact that its not just bread, but plenty of suggestions for things which you can use sourdough in. The vodka pastry is superb! This is placed alongside my Tartine book, which is also highly treasured. I highly recommend this to anyone who is addicted to making sourdough.
