You can stop buying shop bread now! - By: Ladynellie1972, 04 Aug 2008 
My husband bought me this book for Christmas & I haven't looked back. The recipes are great & exclude the sugar & skimmed milk powder nonsense that came with the recipe book for my machine. Every loaf has come out perfectly (I have a Panasonic SD253) - I have even braved the free-form ones using the dough programme & had great results (The Italian loaf is to die for). On the rare occasions we buy bread now, we notice just how sweet it is, & just how many alarming ingredients there are listed on the packaging! I can't recommend it highly enough.
excellent book for the money - By: jen johnson, 31 May 2008 To date I have only used four recipes from the book,they have all turned out perfectly,so am looking forward to trying a few more. I like the fact that I'm not using sugarin plain everyday loaves,and, for me it will be the book to return to.
A useful accessory for your new breadmaker - By: Liam, 28 Sep 2007 I've made loaves using 5 of the recipesin this book; they all turned out great. I like the fact that it doesn't list milk powder as an ingredient with every recipe (as does the recipe book that came with our breadmaker). In addition to the recipes the book includes an explanation of the reasons for including the different ingredients & of how the bread making process works. If you're going to spend £60 on a breadmaker it's well worth spending an extra £3.60 on this book.
Ok but not comprehensive - By: Helen in Bristol, 06 Sep 2007 
The only recipe I use a lot from this book is the very simple one for Italian bread, which I actually adapt to make ciabatta rolls. It isn't comprehensive enough for me. I'd have liked to have seen a Sahara Sand recipe, & many more ideas for rolls for my kids' lunchboxes.
fantastic book - please buy it! - By: Gj Owen, 09 Apr 2007 i bought this at the same time as buying a panasonic s253 breadmaker, i like the way the author has stripped the uneccesary ingredients from the recipies, who needs sugar or milk powderin a savoury loaf? i can only say that if a bad loaf comes from any recipein this book - then maybe its time to switch breadmakers?
