An attractive book with lovely pictures and a variety of sweet and savoury breads. However I was hoping for a choice of good basic breads but there is only one for wholemeal bread and it's for a rapid light wholemeal loaf. i.e. lots of yeast and almost half white flour.
If you've already got good basic recipies and looking for different breads for a change then you'll probably like this book.
 A really good buy June 16, 2008

I only started making bread a few weeks ago. I have got a breadmaker but I do a lot by hand as well and this book caters for both methods.
Another very good thing is the fact that you can choose how big a loaf you want to make (500g, 750g or 1kg) and the ingredient quantities are already adjusted for you!
An awesome book, a great investment and a fantastic incentive to get you into making bread - it definitely worked on me!
Fantastic. June 10, 2008

I bought this book about a year ago and tried several of the recipes by hand as i did not have a breadmaker. The recipes are easy to follow and the techniques on shaping the different breads are great. All of the breads turned out lovely and tasty. I have since got a breadmaker and am pleased to say the recipes work just as well by either hand or machine. I think the book is also very well laid out with different sections covering all types of bread.
The only book you need! July 2, 2007

A really good selection of recipes, from the everyday to the really imaginative, there is no bread style I can think of that isn't covered by this fabulously illustrated and clearly set out book. If you have a breadmaker, buy it - you can't go wrong! If you're adventurous enough to make bread by hand, I'm sure you'll love it too.
Best Bread Book Ever September 13, 2004

This is the best bread making book I have ever had. The book gives the methods for both the bread maker machine and the hand baking for each recipe. Unusually in a bread book - both methods work! I can particularly recommend the recipe for the Couronne which uses yogurt and gets as close as you can get to sour dough bread but without all the fuss of a starter. My husband's favourite is the Oat and Molasses bread and the Rye and Soured Cream is very tasty as well. I have even been inspired to produce croissants from this book. They were excellent as well!
