I've baked bread for years the traditional way, but this book offers a unique simplified method to produce delicious whole grain bread. Baking these types of breads the traditional way, the bread is very dense, but using this method, bread is lighter in texture, and truly quite delicious. The instructions are very well written, easy to follow, even for a baking neophyte I would think.

Product was purchased as a gift. It arrived on time, in good condition. From the recent bread samples made by the recipient I think it was a good choice.

I love food. I love whole foods. I love homemade foods. I love artisan foods, especially breads, crackers, pizzas.
I was skeptical about this book because 1) I actually like to knead and 2) my experience with these no-knead, no-work kinds of bread recipes is a disappointment. That has not been the case with the breads I've made from my first batch of the main recipe of bread dough.
I've made a few boules, a regular free form loaf, 2 pizzas, some crackers and the olive-oil breadsticks with Rosemary.
Goodness are those breadsticks amazing. The loaves turned out chewy with a crispy outside. Not the dense monstrosities I've made from no-knead recipes before (my apologies to Mark Bittman who I otherwise culinarily love). The crackers were a challenge as it was hard to roll them thin enough.
The pizzas were awesome. I love homemade pizza dough. So much that I don't like most commercial pizza and NONE of the frozen disk crap. But, even with the short rising time of most pizza dough recipes, it still isn't practical for a week night supper. This IS! I came home, my in-laws are visiting. I'd spent some time at the library, so I had less time than usual to make my supper. I started the oven, cut some tomatoes and garlic scapes (what's in season and available, not a necessary obscure ingredient) and threw them in a small sauce pan. I pulled out the right amount of dough from the container waiting for me in the fridge, and shaped the dough. In no time, I had a hot oven, sauce, and dough ready for assembly. I just put some torn up slices of lunch-meat style ham on top of the sauce and cheese and thew on some torn basil (in season and available, not a necessary obscure ingredient). Threw it on the pizza stone and made a salad. 10 minutes later supper is ready! You can't heat a frozen pizza that quickly. My mother-in-law raved that it was pizza she couldn't taste the preservatives in--she loves breads but hates that.
I have a small complaint that while the measurements in the bread dough are easy to follow (cups, ounces or grams), the measurements in some of the other directions are not so hot. For example, roll the dough to 1/8 inch and then cut it in 1/8 inch wide strips for the bread sticks? I don't think so. I just rolled it real thin and cut it some what wider but not WIDE. I also don't get to knead, but given what I DO get, I can go without kneading and get my stress relief elsewhere.
There is a very real possibility that this will be the only bread my family eats--with soup or salad, alongside a roast, making a fabulous gourmet sandwich, and even for sliced bread for PB&J in the kids' lunches. It is that good and that easy.
So far, so good June 28, 2010

I have only made one loaf of bread so far, but it is the first time in my life I've made bread and it came out great. I'm glad I bought the book.
