The secret to acclaimed baker Jim Lahey's bread is slow-rise fermentation. As he revealed in 2009 with the publication of his now-classic cookbook My Bread, the amount of labor you put in totals five minutes: mix water, flour, yeast, and salt, and then let time work its magic, no kneading necessary. Whether preparing Lahey's basic loaf or a variation--a peanut butter and jelly bread, a pecorino cheese loaf, pancetta rolls, a classic Italian baguette--the process couldn't be more simple, or the results more inspiring.
In the fifteen years since My Bread's publication, the no-knead bread technique has remained as life-changing as ever. Now, Lahey revisits his beloved cookbook and adds five never-before-published recipes, including a pistachio-goji bread and a foolproof way of making Panko breadcrumbs at home. Repackaged for a new generation, the 15th-anniversary edition of My Bread is as timely as ever, and will bring good bread making back into our lives--with minimal work.

I received this book today. At the title page it looks as if it has come apart and been glued and re-stitched badly. In addition, the pages are rippled on the edges, as if they have been wet. I am thinking about whether to return it a try for another copy or get the original version because it may be better made. I’m interested if anyone else has a copy that looks like this. The content is good, of course, but the quality of this hard cover book is poor.
It is great to have a new copy for anyone who missed the first no knead bread book 15 years ago, not to mention some new recipes!
A bread baking book that does not address high altitude baking... 34 US States, as well as much of Canada, & Mexico, are above 2,500' asl. Minus two stars for negligence. The first Chapter is 30 pages of nothing but self-professed "experience," & boasting by the author. 30 pages would make a great high altitude chapter, especially to those of us living above 5,000' asl. Minus an additional 1 star for being incomplete, & bragging instead.
