From a master of the artisan bread movement comes a comprehensive guide to making incredible bread at home, featuring more than 70 delicious recipes

NAMED ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE ATLANTA JOURNAL-CONSTITUTION

“Here, finally, is the one bread book that every cook needs on their kitchen worktable.”—Andrew Zimmern, host of Bizarre Foods

The Vetri Cucina Bread Program began over a decade ago and has been part of the American movement to reclaim high-quality bread as a cornerstone of our food culture. In Mastering Bread, Marc Vetri and his former head baker, Claire Kopp McWilliams, show home cooks how to create simple breads with unique flavors in a home oven.

Included are more than seventy recipes for their bestselling sourdough and yeast loaves as well as accompaniments to serve with the breads. Their process of bread-making is broken down into three easy-to-digest chapters: Mix, Shape, and Bake. Another chapter includes recipes for enjoying breadin dishes such as Bruschetta, Panzanella, and Ribollita. There’s even a bonus chapter revealing the secrets of Vetri’s coveted Panettone. This book shares everything that Vetri and McWilliams have learned over the years about the art and science of making incredible bread. They explain how to use fresh milled and whole-grain flours as well as local and regional wheat varieties, with easy instructions for adapting bread recipes for success with whatever flour is available in your market. Included throughout are bios and interviews with grain farmers, millers, and bread bakers from around the nation.

Mastering Bread is a master class from an award-winning chef who makes world-class artisan bread easy to bake for both home cooks and professionals alike.

Learn bread, don't learn recipes

Reviewed in Canada on 31 December 2020

Best book on bread I have ever read. The recipes are okay but the core of the book is the theory of bread of the first part. Buy it to learn how to make bread and the theory about flour, yeast and techniques. If you are looking for recipe book you will ignore the best part of this book.

Great for fresh Milled bakers

I love Vetris books, they are very thorough . This is a solid bread book that I would say is almost “must have” if it weren’t for the home milling aspect . Don’t bother buying this book if you don’t plan to mill your own grains, or buy specialty fresh Milled flours . Unfortunately this isn’t in my price range at this point, but as soon as I can afford the lifestyle I can’t wait to use this book.

...allowed me to raise the level of my bread making. I have been making my own breads in various ways over the years and during the pandemic I have developed a keen interest in sourdough (as many others have)

Inside are recipes and personal testimonials of bakers, millers, professional artisans, who have rescued bread from the squishy boring white bread of industrialization to the ancient and vital craft that formed civilization.

The forgotten methods of bread making that have emerged in recent years has revolutionized bread in North America...this book is the latest in a series of books (Tartine, Flour Salt Yeast..) has taken the mystery out of bread making....and opens a door for personal creativity. This method brings an understanding of HOW and WHY bread does what it does and empowers the home baker to think about what they are doing and to revel in creativity and patience. I am actually excited about baking my weekly loaf and want to experiment with the myriad of fresh milled flour becoming available across the country.

The book is beautiful and full of valuable tips and recipes for the kinds of bread you would only see in a handful of true artisan bakeries. The secrets are revealed and passed onto us all in a giving manner that lets us remember that bread making is not a mysterious tool used by industry for profit...it is what makes us civilized, compassionate humans.

The title says it all.

Very well written and inspiring. Accessing the flours and milling May be for more than a novice but this is one of the three best bread books I have read and I highly recommend it.

Beautifully photographed and illustrated; the photo on p 236 is my favorite. I bought this book because I thought the Authors book on pizza was splendid. I am happy with both. I would recommend both to my friends.
