Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Because something is "handmade" doesn't necessarily mean it's of quality.Because something is touted as "easy" doesn't necessarily mean it's any good.
Out of curiosity about the "best" bread in 90-minutes claim, I made the white bread recipe shown from the book's pages here at Amazon, in spite of the lack of precision about the amount of flour to be used.
Yes, it took about 90 minutes.But after tasting the end result, I decided I could have gone to the local day-old bread store and picked up a loaf for fifty cents that would have been of equal quality.And it would have been more economical considering the cost of energy and ingredients.
Most people who want to bake bread at home do so not only to have control over what goes into the bread, but to make a bread that tastes good.This 90-minute method is tantamount to tossing a good steak in the microwave rather than taking the time to grill it.You'll get something that's edible, but it sure isn't very good.
If you want to make good bread, save your money and look for a different book. If you don't want to spend a lot of time making bread, but still want something that's easy and actually tastes good, check out Jim Lahey's "My Bread," or the well known "Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day."
