"Amy tested every recipe in this book multiple times, photographing her process so I could see where she was encountering difficulties. She was determined to get each bread just right and often made improvements to my work along the way. She is a delight to work with, a recipe tester among recipe testers, and I would work with her again in a second."

— Living Bread
Daniel Leader and Lauren Chattmann

"Our deepest gratitude to Amy Vogler, who tested every recipe in this book. Her care, close reading, and writing made her a true partner in this book, not to mention the countless hours discussing pretty much everything."

— Bien Cuit, The Art of Bread
Zachary Golper and Peter Kaminsky

 

“… for making sense of my recipes, for the countless hours she spent testing and writing them, and for being the precise (but compassionate) brain that I lack. I thought I was getting a recipe tester and instead found my right hand, the most meticulous proofreader ever, and a new dear friend and collaborator.”
