4.0 out of 5 stars Astounding information, but uses weight and metric 26 Nov 2012
By Roberta Karchner - Published on Amazon.com

If you are interested in making your own bread, you won't go wrong with this cookbook. It describes the whole process in great detail and even gives the percentages of ingredients that are used by bakers.

Even more, it tells exactly how to knead and shape the bread, how to bake it, every detail is explained. Following all of this, there are basic recipes that you can actually use to make the bread.

My only concern is that this particular book was written for the UK, and the weights and measures are all metric, making some of the advice more difficult to follow if you don't have metric measurements in your kitchen. However, even if you don't, the advice on how to make bread is worth it on this particular book.

It does not show a Table of Contents, but if you go to the front cover, it begins on the next page and links correctly to the well-organized chapters and recipes.

3.0 out of 5 stars Excellent tutorial for the advanced baker; uses metric 1 April 2013
By Penmouse - Published on Amazon.com

Use Your Loaf by Jason Daly is a cookbook written for the advanced baker as his book teaches how to bake bread using metric measurements. Also, the book's recipes require the use of a food scale. If you are a serious baker, you will enjoy reading and using the recipes found in his cookbook. For novice bakers I'd recommend purchasing The King Arthur Flour Baker's Companion: The All-Purpose Baking Cookbook or Betty Crocker Cookbook: 1500 Recipes for the Way You Cook Today (Betty Crocker's Cookbook) as both these cookbooks will teach the basics.

Recommend with caveats given.
5.0 out of 5 stars Bread making is a art! 4 May 2013

when I was young my mother baked bread everyday. Then the bakery's came along and it was easier to go buy a loaf of bread. But there was that welcome home smell gone from our house when I got home from school. I have a bread maker now and use it often but the bread just was missing something. With this book I just might capture that 'welcome home' feeling in my home.THANK YOU JASON DALY FOR THIS BOOK.
