Thanks to this book, and the tenacious curiosity of baker Jim Lahey that gave way to its contents, tables all over the country are studded with home baked loaves of bread made with his revolutionary no-knead method. Here, in Brooklyn, it is THE thing to bring to a dinner party. Handing your host a wrapped loaf of homemade bread made from Lahey’s no-knead method, is simultaneously showy and humble. It looks like more work than it was and it probably set you back less than the $2.50 subway ride you took to the party. There is also something hugely restorative to making a loaf of bread. If you haven’t made yeast bread for a while or never done it, My Bread, is for you. The primer no-knead recipe, made famous by Mark Bittman, is a straight forward whole wheat boule. The Coconut-Chocolate Bread is a spectacular end to a meal as part of a cheese and dessert course or simply accompanied by a strong cup of coffee. This book is a wonderful gift for anyone who appreciates fine food, even the small-kitchen cook. If your kitchen can accommodate a full sized cooking board, you can make pretty much any bread in this book.
