Download or read book Sourdough written by Robin Sloan and published by Text Publishing. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Sourdough is the story we all secretly dream about.’ Washington Post From the author of the much-loved novel Mr Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore comes a follow-up about a life-changing loaf of bread. Lois Clary, a software engineer at a San Francisco robotics company, codes all day and collapses at night. When her favourite sandwich shop closes up, the owners leave her with the starter for their mouthwatering sourdough bread. Lois becomes the unlikely hero tasked to care for it, bake with it and keep this needy colony of microorganisms alive. Soon she is baking loaves daily and taking them to the farmer's market, where an exclusive close-knit club runs the show. When Lois discovers another, more secret market, aiming to fuse food and technology, a whole other world opens up. But who are these people, exactly? Robin Sloan is the author of Mr Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore. He splits his time between San Francisco and the internet. First my stomach unclenched, and then my brain. I let loose a sigh that transformed into a ripping burp, which made me laugh out loud, alone, in my kitchen. I lifted the lone magnet on my refrigerator, allowed a sheet of shiny pizza coupons to fall to the floor, and stuck the new menu reverently in place. ‘Filled with crisp humor and weird but endearing characters... [A] delight, perfect for those who like a little magic with their meals." STARRED Review, Booklist ‘A beautiful, small, sweet, quiet book. It knows as much about the strange extremes of food as Mr. Penumbra did about the dark latitudes of the book community.’ National Public Radio ‘Delightful... It’s equal measures techie and foodie fodder, a perfect parable for our times.’ San Francisco Magazine ‘As he did in Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore, Robin Sloan will have readers looking for magic in the mundane.’ Nora Horvath, Real Simple ‘How many novels can boast an obstreperous sourdough starter as a key character? A delightful and heartfelt read.’ Library Journal ‘A wild, geeky, flour-dusted ride through the oddball food and techie communities of San Francisco... A winning story that―like its namesake bread--carries a satisfying tang.’ Shelf Awareness ‘Sloan's comic but smart tone never flags, and Lois is an easy hero to root for.’ Kirkus Reviews ‘Through narrative and email correspondence, Sloan captures contemporary work environments, current reality, and future trends... [Sourdough] offers much to savor.’ Publishers Weekly ‘In his novel Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore, Sloan unraveled a mystery about a web designer who takes a job in a peculiar all-night Bay area book shop. New technology clashed, then melded, with classic history. Sourdough promises a similar sort of tech and analog mashup, in this case involving the food industry: a software engineer learns to bake bread and uncovers a secret underground market. We’re already hungry for it.’ Fall Books Preview, The Miami Herald ‘[Sourdough] plunges through so much terrain: microbial nations, assimilation and tradition, embodied consciousness and the crisis of the tech industry, all without losing the light, sweet, ironic Sloanian voice familiar from Mr Penumbra's, a plot that makes the book a page-turner and a laugh-out-louder, with sweetness and romance and tartness and irony in perfect balance. What a great book, seriously.’ BoingBoing ‘This novel does a superb job of capturing what life is like—lonely, exhausting, at times quite strange—working at a tech start-up in San Francisco...Utterly charming.’ Whimn ‘As with his first, bestselling novel, Robin Sloan had a great deal of fun. It comes through in his slightly delighted tone, his lilt and the way he laughs at himself...This relishing of language—and Sloan’s awareness of the reader—forms a helpful lens, allowing us to “hear” the interior Lois, the one who deserves a life much richer than robots and Tetra Paks of slurry.’ NZ Listener ‘Sloan's charming storytelling, a mix of magical realism, and a dash of fabulism make for a fun read. It's dessert.’ Dallas News ‘This is no “old school craft beats new technology” redemptive tale...The author pokes fun at a food industry that takes itself seriously, and throws in a romance largely conducted online.’ North & South ‘Genius-level observant, wonderfully written and absolutely brilliant.’ Daily Mail ‘Robin Sloan is a fresh voice whose originality is beguiling. Both the plot and the prose of Sourdough reflect his fierce intelligence, while never straying from an underlying warmth...Sourdough is one of the most unusual and satisfying novels I have read in a long while and there are riches in store for those who might open its pages. Thoroughly recommended.’ Otago Daily Times

Unlike any other bread book, Bread Alone will provide you with a comprehensive guide to creating—at home—the country-style breads that have consistently captured the imagination and the taste buds of the world. In a richly told tale, Leader chronicles his crossings of America and Europe to locate the most vital ingredients at the source, to learn from the methods of the world's great bakers, and to perfect their traditional techniques. His recipes are ones that have been used for centuries: large sourdough ryes, rich and dark raisin pumpernickel loaves, real French pain au levain, big round wheats with walnuts, crusty baguettes, high and airy breads, and more. Made from organic, stone-ground grains, these breads are slow-leavened, hand-shaped, and baked to perfection on heated baking tiles.

You will bake sourdough bread in its many forms. By gently introducing the concept of sourdough—how it is made, how it is maintained, and how to get the best flavor from it—Leader demystifies it and makes it accessible to you. Discover the wonders of rye bread: From the dense and chewy Finnish Sour Rye to the fragrant Danish Light Rye, everyone's tastes are served. The mystery of pain au levain, French for "bread from a sourdough or wild yeast," unfolds into an understandable, user-friendly process. From My Personal Favorite Pain au Levain, a typical large Parisian loaf, to Pain au Levain with Pecans and Dried Cherries, the "Family of Traditional Pain au Levain" includes some of the best loaves baked around the world.

The purpose of an organic certifier—find out how and why one farmer becomes dedicated to his role as land steward. Brioche, Chocolate-Apricot Kugelhopf, Panettone, and Semolina Sesame Rolls are a few recipes you will find in "A Family of Breads Inspired by Traditional French and Italian Breads." Finally, when a quick bread is all you have time to bake, you will find recipes for such delights as Vanilla Bean Butter Loaf; Dried Pear, Port, and Poppy Seed Loaf; and Provolone Sage Corn Loaf.
