I love cooking but kind of shy away from baking. I have so many cookbooks on my shelves but this book has been a bit of a game changer for me. It's got me excited about baking and after only having it for 1 day I made the Cinnamon Swirls and that was it really, my passion for baking was back! I'm pretty rubbish at baking and they were amazing. Can't recommend this book enough, not only does it have great recipes for sweet and savoury breads but for meals to accompany the breads too. Definitely my number 1 baking book and the first one that has ever made me instantly make a recipe on day 1.

Join the revolution - A great book for people of all baking abilities
26 Mar 2012
Format:Hardcover
I highly recommend this book. It is packed full of great recipes, along with loads of helpful hints to help you improve your baking skills.
I made baguettes and cinnamon swirls from the book this weekend and both turned out brilliantly. I would like to think this was down to my skills, but think it has more to do with the great recipes and detailed instructions!
I have got a few baking books but this is my new favourite! It has a wide variety of recipes and goes beyond the standard that you find in most books.
The book is written in such a way that it is suitable for all levels. It would be great for someone keen to learn the basics, but also has tips which would help those who have a bit more experience.
I suggest you buy the book and join the revolution!

By C. Murray
Format:Hardcover
This is one of the most beautifully-designed books I've come across in a long time. I've noticed quite a few criticisms about it only containing about 50% of bread recipes. This is probably the case, and if you want a thorough guide to baking bread then we've found the Dorling Kindersley book to be very good. However, Bread Revolution is presenting more than just a guide to baking bread; it's giving an image of a lifestyle. There are general food recipes so you'll have some fun ideas as to what to have with your scrummy new bread, and suggestions as to what to do with leftover bread once it starts to go stale. The sunny photos and fun little side-comments make me smile and make it a book I enjoy sitting down and reading, not just baking from (my husband does all the baking anyway!)

A valuable insight into a world that can scare you off-Breadmaking.
Everybody seems to refer to their special tasting bread which was baked by someone in the family when they were young and then say that you cannot get the like of it today. Read more
