    About this ebook

    Making sourdough once was a complicated process, up to twelve tricky steps and many days. However, with our new scientific understanding of sourdough you can produce an artisan sourdough loaf with less than 30 minutes active time in the kitchen, after you have developed a starter. The main secret of high quality artisan sourdough is in the starter, a truly wild one based on solid science. Other secrets are the use of natural ingredients, extensive use of parchment for ease of handling soft dough, the slow low temperature development of the dough allowing the microorganisms and enzymes naturally present in the flour to do their work and last of all baking in a Dutch oven to best duplicate the conditions in a French steam oven. This e-book will guide you through how to build a sourdough starter and new techniques for the home bread baker. The introduction will take you on a historical journey of bread followed by numerous recipes representing the entire range of sourdough baking...breads, rolls, biscuits, pancakes, pastries and desserts! Sourdough baked goods keep longer, taste better, are more easily digestible and there is much evidence that sourdough consumption confers better health as well.

    Chuck Holbert

    Chuck Holbert is from Coos Bay, Oregon, and is an amateur naturalist and lifelong forager. He has taught survival skills to the U.S. Coastguard, Civil Air Patrol, Boy Scouts of America and several search and rescue organizations. He has taught college level field identification courses, published numerous articles on foraging and still conducts field trips for others just for fun. Chuck's education was in the sciences and his career was in materials and project management. Now retired, he regularly hunts wild edibles for personal pleasure and enjoys turning people on to the joys of hunting wild foods. While his grandfather taught him much about the outdoors, as a Boy Scout he learned basic survival skills, how to navigate the woods and became an avid backpacker. For Chuck foraging usually was a family affair involving every member regardless of age. "It is an activity older than modern civilization. Foraging is who we are, yet strangely, while the peoples of most industrialized nations still do it, Americans seem to have forgotten it and the healthy pleasure it brings. Maybe we have lost the ability to get around in the woods with confidence," Chuck muses, "or maybe we're in too big of a rush to get somewhere." He enjoys planning the outing and being on the hunt for some elusive choice wild food, but mostly enjoys creating gourmet recipes designed to bring out the best of the wild...hence his books. Rich with humor and useful tips for personal safety, Chuck's recipe articles will lead you to fresh air, exercise, places you've never seen and incredibly grand food...far better than anything you can find in your supermarket.
