Not right for Panasonic SD-YD250 August 31, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I bought this book along with the Panasonic SD-YD250 Bread Machine. The book that comes with the bread machine was far better than this book in producing edible loaves. I found that of the 4 recipes I tried from this book, that they were all off in the wetness by 1/4 cup in one direction or another. This produced uneven loaves, one being undercooked inside, another gummy, a third lumpy. My fourth loaf was starting to look dry and lumpy like the third, so I looked at both recipes and added more water until it started to form a real ball in the kneading process. When I reviewed the proportions of dry/wet ingredients in the owners manual of the bread machine, it was obviously quite off from what is recommended in this book.
So-so June 9, 2008 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
As a BOOK, this is excellent -- great pictures, clear instructions, well organized, lots of variety. I was salivating as I read through it the first time.
However, after trying about half a dozen recipes, I have to say I'm not quite so impressed. The breads didn't taste as good the ingredients would indicate. For example, the onion cheese bread was not particularly cheesy nor onion-y. I tried again without the cheese and had to more than double the onion to get a flavorful result.
I guess it's a good starting point. If the recipe comes out how you like it, great; if not, you can experiment. Maybe I've been spoiled by the Internet: I like the feedback and user comments on AllRecipes.com so I have realistic expectations before I decide to use my time and ingredients.
This is the best! June 5, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is the cookbook to have when you use a bread machine. Not only are the recipes wonderful but it has lots of useful information and pictures. I wish I'd had it when I first started (so does my husband).
