Reviews
In this paean to breads of the world, authors Kraus and Mader offer a brief history of the staple food before plunging a fist straight into the doughy art of bread baking. Though the grain-by-grain glossary may be more detail than the average weekend wheat warrior needs, the straightforward recipes offered throughout this lushly photographed compendium are truly a joy to at least contemplate, if not actually undertake. A few standouts include a simple formula for Indian Chapatis, hearty Cheddar Cheese Bread and Focaccia with Olives and Rosemary. The book also includes an impressive range of festive and traditional breads such as Challah and Irish Soda Bread. The authors have taken care to include a global offering of recipes, extolling the virtues of Sauerkraut Rolls and Coriander Bread as readily as Grissini and Ciabatta Rolls. Where this book truly distinguishes itself, however, is in the simplicity of its recipes. Many bread-baking manuals offer intimidating recipes requiring a multitude of steps; this upbeat cookbook gives readers hope that good bread can be achieved without too much hardship. Careful to distinguish between US and UK terms, Kraus and Mader also include a handy trouble-shooting guide addressing common baking problems and a richly detailed appendix. While a few recipes are less than thrilling—only a truly bored baker would feel compelled to bake their own hamburger buns from scratch—these occasional clunkers are mercifully few and far between. Well organized and happy to lay open flat on a flour-dusted countertop, this book will encourage even the most neophyte baker to sink their teeth into bread-making.

The World of Bread
Seller: Sell Books, Elland, YORKS, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
