Reviews

"Prairie Home Breads is packed with interesting breads and fascinating stories from the Heartland. These unique, traditional breads should be lovingly made at home and shared with family and friends. You'll never find them in a bakery. Create your own baking traditions using Judith Fertig's inspiring recipes." --Amy Scherber, author of Amy's Breads and owner of Amy's Breads, New York City
Prairie Home Breads reminds me again of what it is that makes bread so special its ability to connect us to something deep inside. Whether a taste memory or that warm place of comfort, bread, and certainly these breads from our own prairie Heartland, expand our awareness of the universal implications of that simple, but infinitely profound, staff of life. Peter Reinhart, author of The Bread Baker s Apprentice and Bread Upon the Waters
Prairie Home Breads is a deceptively humble title for a fascinating book of modern homemade breads infused with the flavor of yesteryear. America s Heartland has been almost a secret cache of enviable breadbakers and Judith Fertig has given us a taste: family recipes, bakery specialties, a sense of place, a who s who on the baking scene. Maybe we don t grow our own wheat or churn our own butter anymore, but we can most certainly bake our own bread with the heart-to-heart soul of American bakers in every loaf. Beth Hensperger, author of The Bread Lover s Bread Machine Cookbook and The Best Quick Breads
