Centuries of European baking, reimagined for today

New European Baking by Laurel Kratochvila is a love letter to the ovens of Europe, where centuries of tradition meet a new wave of creativity. With nearly one hundred recipes, this book guides you through breads, brioches, laminated pastries, biscuits, and tartes – each rooted in heritage yet updated for the modern kitchen.

Alongside recipes, Kratochvila shares foundational techniques for fermentation, shaping, and dough work, making the book as practical as it is inspiring. The journey is enriched with profiles of bakers from across the continent – from Paris to Warsaw, Lisbon to Copenhagen – each keeping their local traditions alive while adding their own flavour to the craft.

Expect to find familiar classics and fresh delights: Baltic rye bread, toasted sesame challah, elderflower maritozzi, lamb and fennel sausage rolls, or spicy ginger caramel shortbreads. With evocative photography throughout, this is a book for curious beginners, seasoned bakers, and anyone drawn to the warmth of a kitchen filled with the scent of fresh bread.
