I'm just getting started baking from this book and quite excited to see how Peter has improved on the recipes I've made from his other books. So far, I'm impressed with the improvement on the Whole Wheat Hearth Loaf.

What he's done here is refine his techniques and apply them to some of his old favourites as well as some new recipes. He's learned from some of the new breadmaking techniques (stretch-and-fold instead of kneading, overnight refrigerator fermentation) to make artisan bread much more quickly and simply than before.

According to his blog he had 4000 emails from recipe testers during the process - I like the fact that he's so interested in testing; not enough cookbooks go through the tester mill...
