Bread on the Table

A bread baking book from the popular Austin bakery and beer garden Easy Tiger, featuring bread and baking recipes from around the world, plus menu ideas for incorporating homemade bread in globally inspired meals.

Easy Tiger is far and away the most popular bakery Austin, Texas. David Norman is one of the most respected bread bakers in the country, with decades of experience in top bakeries and cooking schools. In his anticipated debut cookbook, Norman explores the European breadmaking traditions that inspire him most--from the rye breads of France to the saltless ciabattas of Italy to the traditional Christmas loaves of Scandinavia. Norman also offers recipes for traditional foods to accompany these regional specialties, so home bakers can showcase their freshly made breads alongside a traditional Swedish breakfast spread, oysters with mignonette, or country pâté, to name a few examples. With rigorous, detailed instructions plus showstopping photography, this book will surprise and delight bakers of all stripes.
