Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
This is the third title in Brody's popular "Perfect" miniseries, following Bread Machine Baking (Morrow, 1993) and Desserts from Your Bread Machine (LJ 3/15/94). And this one delivers more than the title promises, for it also includes deep-dish pies, crackers, scones and pancakes, and even some desserts. As in her dessert book, sometimes the bread machine is used only as a mixer, and for some recipes, it hardly seems worth bothering with it. On the other hand, there are lots of delicious choices here, and bread machine owners will look forward to trying more of Brody's sweet and savory recipes. For all baking collections.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Lots of good stuff in here!,
This review is from: Pizza, Focaccia, Flat and Filled Breads For Your Bread Machine: Perfect Every Time (Hardcover-spiral)
I bought this book because I absolutely love focaccia, but am forever spoiled by the ease of the bread machine. This book brings the two together beautifully! I made the Pesto Focaccia first, because I make my own pesto every summer and freeze it, and this was a great way to make use of it. It turned out really well, and it feels good to hear "Oh my gosh, this is great!" when you try something new! I can't wait to try some of the stuffed pizza recipes, they sound wonderful. The recipes are well written, instructions are clear, and there are a couple of very helpful sections in the beginning that go over equipment, ingredients and "Secrets for Success". There are also lots of hints throughout the book, in fact, there is one after almost every recipe. I also liked the fact that the book is spiral bound, yet hardcover. It lays flat for easy reference, which I found convenient. The only drawback is the lack of pictures. I am a sucker for a cookbook with LOTS of pictures, and I really missed them in this one.
