Format:Hardcover
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!

This book was a Christmas present. I have not stopped baking ever since! All the receipes I have tried have been a 100 percent result and the whole family love it. I am following all the receipes by hand, but I am also tempted to buy a bread machine to make life a bit easier. I can only recommend this book to anyone who fancies making their own bread.

Format:Paperback
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.
