Smart Sourdough

NO STARTER -- NO WASTE -- NO CHEAT -- NO FAIL

100% NATURALLY FERMENTED BREAD IN JUST 24 HOURS

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.
