Harvard Common Press - 2000

This was my first book on bread making. It not only applied to using my bread machine, but after the machine lept off the counter to it's death, this book continued to serve me with good advice and really, really good recipes. I especially like the Vienna Bread. I frequently adapt the recipes to sponge started recipes. FF

By Peter Reinhart

I really enjoy the book and have not been disappointed in the recipes and the techniques promulgated here. My favorite recipe for Whole Wheat bread is from this book.
