'It is impossible to read this book without wanting to scuttle off
into the kitchen.' Nigella Lawson The benefits of sourdough are
well known - the slow fermentation process creates a healthier and
lighter dough that is easier to digest - but until now they have
been mainly linked to bread. If it rises, however, it can be made
with sourdough, and in this ground-breaking new book, Vanessa
Kimbell focuses on sweet sourdough bakes that not only nourish the
gut but also improve your mood. Using a variety of flours,
including chestnut, spelt, and einkorn, as well as blends you can
make up yourself, the classic recipes and new ideas for flavor
combinations cover everything from cakes, tarts, and biscuits, to
donuts, brioche and pretzels, and rely on natural sweetness
wherever possible. Recipes include Morello Cherry Shortbread,
Chocolate, Tangerine & Pistachio Cakes, Carrot & Walnut
Cake, Doughnuts and Mille-feuille as well as vinegars, compotes,
cultured creams, butters, and ghee. There is even Chocolate, Almond
& Hazelnut Spread and Sourdough Vanilla Ice Cream. Vanessa also
explains how sourdough helps to maintain the health and diversity
of your gut microbiome. From understanding the benefits of having
diversity in your diet to the amazing work of enzymes, this book is
about understanding the connection between our food, gut microbiome
and the potential impact on our mental health. New studies are
unveiling links between the microorganisms in our gut and our mood
and behaviour, and Vanessa is at the forefront of this research.
'Britain's queen of sourdough.' - Telegraph 'Vanessa Kimbell wants
to change the bread we eat, one loaf at a time. She's the real
deal: a total inspiration.' - Diana Henry 'Just five years ago if
someone said to you that they were writing a book about sourdough
bread and mental health you would have thought they needed
psychiatric help. Today nobody is laughing as the latest science
tells us that microbes are the key link between food and the health
of our mind and bodies.' - Tim Spector, author of The Diet Myth
