The pages for challah and the potato bread are wrinkled from use and dropped ingredients. I have almost never had a recipe go wrong unless I do something silly, like not reading the directions. This book walks you through all the necessary steps to making very good bread and sweets, and even gives you moral support. What other book would tell you not to worry and keep beating, it will turn out in a few minutes? If you are sick of store-bought or machine-made bread, get this book and some yeast, and go forth. I guarantee with a bit of practice and patience, you will be churning out lovely loaves in a week or so. (  ) kblaas | Mar 12, 2009 |  Based on the PBS series hosted by Julia Child and featuring recipes and instructions from many master bakers. Everything from lefse to wedding cake, and photographs too. Excellent. (  ) auntieknickers | Feb 8, 2008 | Gorgeous book -- the french apple tart is an all-time favorite (for me to make and others to eat). ( ) msmalnick | Jul 27, 2006 | These recipes are sophisticated, thorough, and beautifully conceived. A fairly large range of cultures are represented, and the level of difficulty ranges from intermediate to very advanced. Everything I have made has turned out very well. My favorites so far have been "Rustic Potato Loaves" and Challah. It also includes directions for making beautiful and pretty rarely found loaves such as epis and Couronnes. ( ) Vercingetorix | Jul 25, 2006 | Food pr0n, through and through. Still, I flip through it to remind me of the stuff I could be making -- sometimes I get inspired to bake (even if from from another book). ( ) wenestvedt | Sep 27, 2005 |  no reviews | add a review
