I am a young British student who got inspired to bake through the TV programme the Great British Bake Off. Furthermore, I wanted to learn how to make my own bread as I didn't want to eat the bread in supermarkets with a plethora of preservatives and god knows what else in them. I sought information on the topic and bought Paul Hollywood's book "bread". I managed to make a couple of tasteless flat yeasted white sandwich breads and sourdoughs, not happy with my current efforts I bought James Morton's "Brilliant Bread" book and what a revelation! In the book James explains the science of baking in a simple and easy to understand way as well as providing simple easy to follow recipes. My goal is work my way through the a lot of the recipes in the Brilliant Bread book and document my bakes along with some notes on how my particular bakes went!
