Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Roasted-potato bread

    • SpatulaClark on May 05, 2020

      Crackly crust and superb crumb, and stunning looks with the fendu shaping. Added dried herbs for a flavour boost. Cut potato into small cubes to expedite the roasting, and it brought a bonus of more 'roasty' flecks through the loaf - but only a mild potato undertone.

  • Five-grain bread

    • OneAnd2 on November 07, 2022

      Left out (okay, forgot) the eggs, subbed chia seeds for flaxseed and oat bran for wheat bran. Despite all that, my wife and I loved this bread.

  • German farmer's bread

    • mklasan on January 15, 2026

      Used 50% yoghurt 50% water, worked very well.
