The Bread Builders
Hearth Loaves & Masonry Ovens

Creating the perfect loaf of bread--a challenge that has captivated bakers for centuries--is now the rage in the hippest places, from Waitsfield, Vermont, to Point Reyes Station, California.  Many people find that their palates have been reawakened and re-education by the taste of locally baked, whole-grain breads.  Today's village bakers are finding an important new role--linking tradition with a sophisticated new understanding of natural leavens, baking science and oven construction.

The Bread Builders is the most comprehensive and accessible book yet published on artisan bread-baking at home and in commercial masonry ovens.  Although the art of baking with natural leavens was nearly lost over the past hundred years, Wing and Scott have visited a dedicated group of artisans who have revived the ancient techniques, recovering knowledge that has been threshed, milled, and baked into the pages of this book.

"This book is ice cream for a baker!  We visit legendary bakeries, meet wonderful people, learn all sorts of fascinating scientific information with practical usefulness in bowl and oven--and best of all, get the skinny on masonry ovens, that cherished fantasy of us all."  --Laurel Robertson, author of Laurel's Kitchen

Though the fig tree does not blossom and there is no fruit on the vines, [though] the product of the olive fails and the fields yield no food, though the flock is cut off from the fold and there are no cattle in the stalls, Yet I will rejoice in the Lord; I will exult in the [victorious] God of my salvation! [Rom 8:37.]  The Lord God is my Strength, my personal bravery, and my invincible army; He makes my feet like hinds' feet and will make me to walk [not to stand still in terror, but to walk] and make [spiritual] progress upon my high places [of trouble, suffering, or responsibility]!  Habakkuk 3:17-19 AMP
