A Baker’s Journey: Science in the Art of Baking

A Baker’s Journey is an effort by Dr. Avin Thaliath’s to bring together the science, anthropology, and art behind baking bread.

It is a direct outcome of years of collaborative work with chefs across the world. He considers the dissemination of this knowledge as his duty as an educator and learner alike and is the first in its series. This volume covers various aspects of the processes of making bread- from the classification to the ingredients such as types of flour, yeast, eggs and even salt and sugar to the practice of dough-making, exploring the plethora of bread found in India and across the world, and their recipes.

It is for all who think about baking as students and professionals, for home bakers and hobbyists, entrepreneurs, or anyone who just seeks a reference.
