Masa madre

Michelle opened Margot Bakery in an old and dilapidated premises in the London borough of East Finchley in 2016. It was a blazing success and became an experiment in the creative limits that can be reached in a neighborhood bakery. Margot specialized in salty puff pastry and pastry, always fermenting her creations with sourdough, as well as offering something more traditional bakery. Michelle's cultural heritage is responsible for the fact that Sourdough: the definitive book contains more than one hundred delicious recipes that will help us to better understand the ancient baking techniques. The book includes detailed instructions that guide us step by step for the preparation of a sourdough starter, as well as explaining the folding, molding, kneading, doughing and baking methods. She teaches us how to prepare the most coveted breads at the Margot Bakery, not forgetting pizzas and focaccias, typically French puff pastry buns or brioches, as well as somewhat more exotic recipes such as challah bread or babka. Of course, always resorting to natural fermentation with sourdough. In the book you will find recipes to make bread, cakes and pastries, both sweet and savory, which will undoubtedly become the delight of your home. In addition, there is another series of recipes that originally did not use sourdough and that are among the favorites of the clients of the Margot Bakery. You won't be able to stop baking.
