Bread Machine: how to prepare and bake the perfect loaf

Great bread cookbook, beautiful pictures. I em enjoying this cookbook. All the recipes have been great. Bought 5 additional cookbooks as gifts for friends who love making breads.

I have been trying a lot of recipes from this book and they all came out great. The pictures are wonderful and the instructions are simple yet detailed. It is a very good book for people who own a bread machine.

This is a great book! I just got a bread machine and have been trying out all the breads. Features I love about this book: split into many sections so you can try many breads; each recipie has measurements for three sizes of loaf depending on the size of your breadmaker (small, medium, or large). There is a lot of variety in the kinds of breads shown, from fancy breads to doughs to basic breads. There is a lot of variety in the ingredients and in the flours, and there are a lot of breads for which it is easy to adapt recipies for vegetarian/vegan baking. Very simple, easy-to-follow directions, and luscious pictures.

I absolutely love this book. So many recipies. When my family first got a bread machine, we wondered what we could make, besides the standard bread recipe that came with the product guide. When I found this book, it opened our eyes to so many possibilties and I have tried some of the recipes that are found within it. True, a lot of them are complex and I'd probably wouldn't use them. Some of the pictures and recipes of various breads look a bit complicated and scary, and I probably will not make them. This is one of the main reasons why I have given this book four stars rather than five. But I haven't been unhappy with what I can do with the book. I have made Hot Crossed Buns and Petit Pain Au Chocolat from this book, along with the standard breads. It's well worth getting, even if you only use it to make an ordinary egg, potato, or milk bread.
