Book Reviews of Crust and Crumb: Master Formulas for Serious Bread Bakers
Book Review: Great Homebaking Book
Summary: 5 Stars
I am not an expert baker by ANY stretch of the imagination. I have Peter Reinhart's other 2 books - The Bread Baker's Apprentice and American Pie - and have had such success with his recipes that I had to get this book. I was a little nervous about some of the comments about the complexity of the recipes but I have to disagree now that I have purchased the book and used the recipes. I like the fact that Mr. Reinhart does talk beyond a simple recipe so that you can begin to make some modifications and customize your bread, make it your own. I have made some fabulous bread with his recipes - including the Multigrain which I made last night. Let me tell you - I have made some AWFUL multigrain bread in my lifetime! With Mr. Reinhart at my elbow, I made some smashing bread last night! I had frozen some biga - as he had suggested - took it out to thaw, and began making the bread right before starting dinner. Yes, it was a very late night, but in the end I had a beautiful, very tasty loaf of multigrain bread. And I even made a hasty modification to the multigrain addition because I did not want to mess with putting grains together. Great book, great addition to one's book collection, and a terrific learning tool for bread making!
