no wheat free or gluten free bread in here! - By: Anna Di Giovine, 04 Mar 2006 
The book does not contain recipes for people with gluten or wheat allergy/intollerance; only an american free phone number to get helpin getting the right information/books/help. I wasted my money & time! ps I agree: is very much for the American odeon! Degrees arein F & notin C. Very surprised to find a Pandoro recipe though!!
OK but too American - By: , 27 Jan 2006 
The recipes I chose were OK but the book is too American for easy use. You spend your whole time converting measurements & checking that the ingredients are easily availablein the UK. One minute they talk about the importance of accurancy with ingredients; & then they talk about 2 1/4 teaspoons dry yeast (and is that the same as dried yeast?). The recipes are also for the American market - Old Milwaukee sourdough rye bread, pumpernickel roll-up sandwich. I'm off to find a British book.
Delicious - By: , 01 Jan 2006 
The recipesin this book are really yummy & interesting. My only issue was that this book was written with an American audiencein mind. This is notin itself a bad thing, but means that some measurments are difficult (butter for example does not comein handy sticks with tbsps demarkated on it this side of the atlantic & can be a bit of a pain to getin & out of a tablespoon...). Similarly things such as cans of apple pie filling, required by a few recipies are not that easily come by over here. I also found that the recipes used far to much yeast, but once I'd sorted out a few overflows, I was well on the way to delicious & interesting recipes. I especially recommend the brioche dough.
The best little bread machine cookbook - By: D. Glover, 13 Apr 2003 
I livein England nine months of the year & the US the other three. I keep this cookbook with me & use itin bread machines on both sides of the Atlantic. I have never had a failure following the recipes & the bread is absolutely wonderful!
