Excellent for first-time bread bakers
Rating:
5 / 5
This book is THE BEST for anyone with zero experience baking bread - or rolls, or bagels, or breakfast pastries -- this book covers EVERYTHING.
Best stuff:
1) Clear, very detailed instuctions on all the nuts-n-bolts tecniques that seem so intimidating, like how to knead the dough properly (well described and well illustrated)
2) Wonderful array of variations on the basic bread recipe
3) breakfast pastry section will really wow anyone coming over for brunch
4) Said it before but I'll say it again: Anyone who wants to learn to bake bread will succeed. Really, anyone. As in, even me!
5) Bread machines simple do not turn out anything as good as the 'real deal'.
Hard to find book but well, well worth the search.
The Best Even after 35 Years !

I bought this book in 1970 when I was 20 years old and am so happy to see that it is still in print so that another generation of cooks can learn from it. Simply stated - it is the best.
Thrilled to see this is still in print

I've relied on Tassajara's simple, homey, and mouthwatering recipes for nearly a decade. This book is also indispensable for its illustrated guide to braiding a six-strand challah (or any other braided loaf). I still have to look at the pictures every time I do this.
