 May I recommend a book After reading the thread by issac and the contributions to that thread by many it made me think...I have a number of books that I look to for advice in regards to breads,But I would like to mention what I think is one of the best books. "Special and Decorative breads" By Roland Bilheux.Alain Escoffier,Danial Herve and Jean-Marie Pouradier. Its published by Van Nostrand reinhold. Has anyone used this bread bible? cc
