BREAD BAKING is a delicate dance between the simple and the complex. On one hand, nothing could be more straight forward: just combining flour, water, salt, and yeast yields a dough that with the baker's touch magically transforms into a crusty baguette or a hearty loaf. On the other hand, the science behind the "magic" is incredibly complicated, and research reveals the markedly complicated process that baking actually is.
Don't let the complexities of the baking process intimidate you,though. Knowledge is power and, in the case of bread baking, an overview of the components and processes is all you need to tart your journey. In the following chapters, the roles of the ingredients, equipment, and techniques are explained and expounded upon. The most important information is extracted and reduced to readily accessible and easily understood core concepts. Armed with these essentials, you can move confidently into the kitchen and let the baking begin!
