    A solid introduction to bread baking

    This is a great little guide to getting started baking bread WITHOUT using a bread machine.

    There are dozen or so recipes. I like that the author sticks to using common ingredients I already had around the house rather than harder to find items, and that he helpfully walks you through the process of making a loaf bread step-by-step. My first loaf came out great!

    On the downside, this book isn't as comprehensive as the big baking books you'll find in a bookstore. But, then again, it isn't as expensive either!
