this the book of bread and the ultimate bread machine cookbook in one volume
25 July 2008
Format:Hardcover
the two books above have been indespensible in my kitchen and ive had library copies ive been hanging onto for nearly a year because they are out of print and very hard to find at a resonable price! then i find these both for a quarter of what it would cost to buy secondhand im so chuffed , buy it before it goes ,it is probably the only machine bread book you will ever need and the recipes taste so good!. the pictures are there for every recipe.

If you want to make bread then this is your bible. But instead of archaic language, it's in plain English and every recipe seems fool proof
By G Walker
Format:Paperback
Superb book covering every aspect of the history with dozens of recepies on bread making. This includes recepies using traditional hand made bread and using a bread machine. A must for anyone wishing to learn how to make professional looking bread.

Okay
Packed with easy to use recipes and ideas. Great if you want to just bake some bread, not so great if you really want to get your teeth into learning about baking.
