Paul Hollywood's Bread

Paul Hollywood's Bread showcases Britain's favourite master baker, Paul Hollywood, focusing on the art and enjoyment of bread—how to make it and how to use it. While it’s delightful to create a beautiful loaf of bread, can you ensure it won’t go to waste? Imagine having a lovely crusty loaf, fresh from the oven, but soon realising that half of it might get overlooked. It may be time to truly incorporate bread back into mealtimes.

Not only does Paul teach you how to make a variety of breads, but each one comes with a spin-off recipe to transform it into a fantastic meal. The book comprises six chapters, each featuring five bread recipes alongside spin-off recipes for main courses. Paul’s recipes are not only delicious but also foolproof, with detailed step-by-step photographs guiding you through the process.

Try your hand at a basic white bloomer, which can become a savoury picnic loaf; stilton and bacon rolls, perfect alongside celery soup; fluffy crumpets, which serve as the foundation for eggs Benedict; flatbreads, naturally paired with chickpea masala; ciabatta, traditionally used by Italians as a base for tomatoey panzanella; pizza bases for homemade fig, Parma ham and Gorgonzola pizzas; or white chocolate and raspberry bread, making for an unforgettable summer pudding.

In conjunction with the BBC2 television series, Paul Hollywood's Bread offers all you could desire from a baking book and more. Get baking!
