The King Arthur Baking Company Big Book of Bread: 125+ Recipes for Every Baker (A Cookbook)

Outstanding reference book.
King Arthur is a high quality product and the enclosed recipes are a great library to have on hand, much (but not all) you can find on their website unlike a lot of subscription based websites. I use the book and the website multiple times each week. My only (minimal) criticism/observation is to give an encompassing chapter or two in flour as there is a limitless amount of knowledge to convey. Bread (and so flour) is one of the oldest and most consumed food items in history. For a company that IMO is the gold standard for flour in the states, impart your vast wealth of knowledge.

Loads of info and unique bread recipes
I love King Arthur Flour products and that’s the only brand I buy. I’ve made MANY of their recipes that always turn out great. I love to bake fresh bread, and I’m obsessed with leaning to make sourdough bread. I also want to expand my repertoire with bread recipes,that are “different” and a challenge. The info on shaping is helpful as is the QR code to see videos. Some recipes were interesting to read, but I doubt I’ll make them. I’ve bookmarked a few breads I’m anxious to make. The photos are beautiful!

Tons of great new recipes that are easy to follow. These are recipes you will actually use. Written by a renowned Baking institution that just so happens to have amazing flours and tools for baking amazing creations.

Better than the website's version
Just like the one from the website, but slightly cheaper. Also, you don't get promotional emails from King Arthur. The book came in great quality and quickly. Highly recommend.

The Big Book of Bread is Essential in a Bread Baker's Library!
This is a comprehensive book about the techniques in making breads and rolls, including wonderful recipes. My expectations were high for this Big Book of Bread since it was put together by the King Arthur Baking Company, and their excellent reputation. I was not disappointed and feel no one else would be either.

Trustworthy information and excellent recipes.
An excellent resource for both experienced and just-getting-started at home bakers. Full of great recipes and technical information. I love the QR codes embedded in the techniques that jump you to an actual demo.

Best bread book....with one really large oversight.....where is the pizza?
This is a great book. Well done, well researched. I love everything about it, and it is well worth the money....HOWEVER, I am reserve the fifth star because there is NO RECIPE FOR PIZZA dough!?! In a book that seem to encompass every imaginable type of bread, most of which I have never heard of, but covering so many classics, gives this book universal appeal, it is really odd to NOT see a pizza dough recipe of any kind. That said, one to the great things about this book, is that each recipe has a visual timeline of how long it takes, which is a fantastic and thoughtful feature.

Would buy again.
Some of the recipes are a little complicated, however a great addition to my bread making resources.
