The Bread Baker's Apprentice: Mastering the Art of Extraordinary Bread

Beautiful book, delicious bread...
I'm an idiot baker, but a little snooty about the bread I buy. So when I turned out the best baguette I've probably ever had, inside or outside of France, I knew this was a keeper. The book looks too pretty to be useful, but it rocks. Want the chemistry behind baking? Check. Want helpful photos demonstrating technique? Check. Want recipes that make complex and amazing bread? Yeah, baby. I've also ...

Going Deeper
This is a thoroughly enjoyable memoir. Although I am not a big fan of extended metaphors, I found Reinhart's comparison of the stages of breadmaking to the stages of seeking God very effective. The recipes are a great inclusion and don't seem to require an overwhelming effort for the novice. The real gem in this book is the encouragement to go deeper, whether that be into an art like bread-making ...

A spiritual approach to bread
This book has fabulous and easy to follow recipes along with Brother Juniper as a spiritual guide through the bread making process. His enthusiasm for making bread and finding the perfect blend of flavors has helped me achieve some of the best bread I have made yet. I highly recommend this book for reading and for making bread.
Six Thousand Years of Bread: Its Holy and Unholy History

Multi-faceted book-wow
As a bread baker, I read this book anticipating information on bread through history. Who would have ever known that bread was so important. What a bonus it was learning about agriculture, religion, politics, literature , etc. and their connection to bread. It was facinating how the author found so many connections to bread, which was obviously more important in history than it is ...

A real breakthrough!
Since I came to the U.S. I started baking my own bread ( I couldn't take the crustless, squishy "wonderbreads" from the local supermarket). I did pretty well, but first with the "Breadbakers' Apprentice" and now the "Whole Grain Breads" I experienced a real breakthrough! Meanwhile I also adapt my old German bread baking recipes to Peter Reinhart's much better techniques and even opened up a ...

American Pie
I have definitely upped my game. Pay attention to the details. I wish he would have spent more time with the different flours that can be used, proofing times, etc. Otherwise, very well written.

CRUST AND CRUMB: Master Formulas for Serious Bread Bakers
I OWN SEVERAL BOOKS ON THE ART OF BREAD MAKING. AT THE SAME TIME THAT I BOUGHT THIS BOOK FROM AMAZON.COM Crust & Crumb: Master Formulas for Serious Bread Bakers I BOUGHT ANOTHER BOOK. THAT BOOK WAS MY PRINCIPAL PURCHASE AND I OPENED THE BOX AND STARTED READING IT IMMEDIATELY; HOWEVER, FROM TIME TO TIME I PICKED UP "CRUST AND CRUMB" AND SOON WAS UNABLE TO PUT IT DOWN. IT IS WELL WRITTEN, AN EASY ...
The Panera Bread Cookbook: Breadmaking Essentials and Recipes from America's Favorite Bakery-Cafe

Panera Bread
Clarkson Potter
, 2004
Good book, but very few authentic Panera Bread Recipes
The Publishers Weekly review was correct in stating there no authentic Panera "Bread" recipes in this book. The only authentic items are a few sandwich and salad recipes (and these recipes are not very hard to figure out after eating the product at the restaurant). The bread recipes in the book are basic, such as white, wheat, rye, etc. The other chapters on Sandwiches and Soups and ...

If you like garlic, this book is for you!
I love cookbooks. They are as exciting and gripping as novels. But, very few cookbooks are made to be read like a novel-but this one is. Before each recipe is a short essay by the author explaining the addition of or the history behind each recipe or group of recipes. Some of the stories are wildly funny, such as the author's quest for the perfect barbecue sauce... The recipes really shine, ...

Great reading and baking
Bread making is money saving and soul enhancing. I still like to make bread by hand, even though I own a bread machine. And this book helped me make truly delicious French bread. Just wonderful! The reading is also good for your soul. If you have more time than money...
