My kind of Bible

This edition is another in a long list of great bread baking books. It ranks right up there with Bread Alone, Crust & Crumb, and The Village Baker. I may never become a baker as good as Rose Levy Berenbaum, Dan Leader, Peter Reinhart, or Joe Ortiz, but I will never stop trying to improve my skills by studying these master bakers.

The Bread Bible

Great book! A bread maker is not a requirement! Won't be searching for bread books anytime soon!

Great book for people wanting to learn to make quality bread

This is a great book if you're willing to take the time to read and put the effort into learning how to make good bread. Most of her recipes take 1/2+ days to make, so its not a good choice if you just want to make bread in an hour. If you've never had exposure to making sponges, levain, etc. it might seem a little confusing at first but the end result is worth it. She has a great selection of different types of bread, including flat breads, hearth breads, sourdough breads, even quick breads like muffins and scones. If you're already an avid bread maker, you might find the book unnecessarily verbose and simple and may wish to purchase a more advanced book. However, I love this book, and even though I own a several different bread making books I always come back to this book. I get consistent results and the process she uses (once you get used to it) it very simple. Its a great way to get your feet wet in the world of breadmaking!

The good book, indeed.

My initial experience was at first frustration at the length of recipes and equipment needs of all the recipes. I also felt there was too much "fluff" and that the whole book could have been cut in half. These feelings turned positive when I got patient, sat down, read and baked. When the recipe for Jewish Rye came out of the oven it was superb. My girlfriend and I agree that we've never had Reubens that tasted that good. Then I made the Pugliese, also a big hit. Now I can't wait to try another one... Thank you, Rose.
