Synopsis:
NO STARTER -- NO WASTE -- NO CHEAT -- NO FAIL
NATURALLY FERMENTED BREAD IN JUST 24 HOURS WITH YOUR HOME PROOFER, INSTANT POT, SLOW COOKER, SOUS VIDE COOKER, OR OTHER WARMER
There's sourdough, and then there's SMART sourdough -- a whole new approach to an ancient bread!
Most sourdough recipes lead you through days or even weeks of developing a starter before you can make your bread -- and then into a lifetime of maintaining that starter. But this book is based on the belief that all that rigmarole is no longer needed. With modern methods of regulating temperature, and with the easy availability of baker's yeast, honest-to-goodness naturally fermented sourdough bread can be made from start to finish in less than a day.
With all the benefits of naturally fermented sourdough, it's only the hassle of making it that has discouraged home bakers. Well, hassle no more. The age of smart sourdough has arrived.

Review:
Sourdough in 24 hours? NO WAY. But YES, you can! yes, it may not be the sourdough you know, but come to find out, what we tend to think of sourdough, may not be true fermented yeast making it so, but the bacteria. And THAT can be fast tracked, WHO KNEW? If you survived the pandemic without making sourdough, then THIS is your book- you can get ahead of everybody else, with the quickest recipe possible for amazing bread, pizza dough, pancakes and dosa! There are 3 different set ups you can use, based on your preferred method, and with different types and flavors, the end result is whatever you want it to be!
As a homeschool mom, I'd also say that since you're basically growing bacteria, and watching for reactions, it would also be a great book to use for a Kitchen Chemistry or Biology class!
