Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - another amazing book
King arthur flour company offers some of the best baking cookbooks around. I have never been able to make good bread untill now. They have the best (foolproof) bread recipes you could possibly imagine. There cookies are also excellent. I made the cheddar pepper biscuts yesterday and they are all gone. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this and all the other king arthur books!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent
This is one cookbook I have not regretted buying, it's well written and very well illustrated. Exceptional recipes.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wonderful book!
This book was exactly what I was looking for. It not only has great recipes in it but also explains the whys of baking. Want to know WHY you don't stir muffins or brownies too much? Want to know WHY your bread dough sometimes doesn't rise right? This book has it all. A great read along with the recipes. Plus, it was $10 cheaper through Amazon than from King Arthur itself.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - My Baking Bible
I received this book as a gift this past Christmas, and it is by far the most-used cookbook I own. I have a special penchant for baking, but am only still learning (before this cookbook, I'd only ever really baked cookies).

I can say, then, that this cookbook is excellent for the learning baker. This is the book I used to learn to bake bread (like their delicious and easy Vermont Maple Honey Bread, and the much more complex but oh-so-worth-it Crostini with Basil, Chevre, and Sundried Tomato), and bagels, and the Simple but Perfect Pancake.

The only possible criticism I can muster is that sometimes I cut down a little on the salt and sugar (I don't like things very sweet), but I think with every cookbook you have to learn the writer's taste so you can adjust them to yours.

I LOVE to bake, and I love that just about anything I could want is contained in this book -- along with extremely detailed commentary so that you understand what you're doing, instead of just following directions.

It's those very clear directions, interesting facts, and the indispensable elaboration on specific ingredients in the back of the book that make this a book from which you learn not just recipes but actually how to bake.

So good job, King Arthur Flour -- I'm incredibly grateful I received this book!
