Do you think that great artisan sourdough and yeasted breads are really difficult to make?
Do you think it takes hours of hard work? That you would never have the time?
Are you put off by the thought of all that kneading ?
Or are you nervous about using sourdough leaven?
If your answers to any of those questions are 'yes', then you'll be delighted to know you are wrong! And we have built this course just to prove to you how easy artisan sourdough and yeasted baking can be.
The secret is all in the planning, and understanding the vital relationships between time, temperature, ingredients and techniques. The great news is, we've done all that for you! Effortless Artisan Breads is a complete, standalone course to help you make great bread a part of your life.
Through this course, you will learn:
how to make different types of artisan bread according to how soon you want to eat it!
the six expert schedules that give you ultimate flexibility

how to do all this with just 5 minutes hands-on effort, letting nature and time do all the rest for you.
In the core of the course, you will see exactly how to make a Daily Sourdough, by mixing one big batch of dough at the beginning of the week and using your fridge to slow down the rise, so that you can get out some dough and bake a fresh loaf/baguette/rolls every day.
If you are nervous about sourdough, don't worry; you will also learn how to make a Daily Yeasted Bread, using instant bakers yeast. Then, once you've got the hang of it, you can move on to the sourdough version.
