So far, I have made only the Portuguese cornbread (broa) recipe, but it turned out exactly as promised and is very tasty. <br><br /> <br><br /> I would have liked to see more whole grain recipes in here, but they are a little trickier to get to rise so that may be the reason. <br><br /> <br><br /> For the convenience of the bread, it is what it is and I can't complain. <br><br /> <br><br /> I just wish the instructions were a little simpler. <br><br /> <br><br /> 1. I would look at some usual bread recipes prior to beginning these recipes as the I had to review the ones in the book to make sure I was doing it correctly. For example, the directions tell you to get a 5 quart bowl with an airtight lid to mix your yeast, salt, and water. You are told you don't proof the yeast, but in essence you are. Then you are to transfer this to a bowl to mix with the flour. You can do all this in the mixer bowl. <br><br /> <br><br /> The dough did seem a little salty to me, but that might just be me as I typically salt less than anyone I know. The yeast amount might be negotiable. This amount may be needed to get a rise on the other batches. For this amount of dough, with regular breadmaking, I usually use 5-6 teaspoons, not 2 tablespoons. <br><br /> <br><br /> 2. I have a set of Tupperware bowls with lids. Not sure what they are called. I used the two medium sized bowls (orange and green) to give you an idea about the sizes needed. After mixing, I sprayed the largest bowl with cooking spray and put the dough in to rise. When it had doubled in size, I punched it down, taking what I needed, and stored the rest in the fridge, with the lid on loosely per the instructions. I also sprayed the small bowl to help get the dough out as it is rather sticky. <br><br /> <br><br /> 3. The business with using a pizza peel and baking stone seemed like extra work to me. I sprayed with cooking spray my seasoned Lodge #8SK and allowed it to rise for the 2nd time in the cast iron skillet. The desired crust was there, not to hard and not too tender. <br><br /> <br><br /> 4. I baked at the recommended 450 degrees for 30 minutes. I did check on it during the last few minutes. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Artisan-Bread-Five-Minutes-Revolutionizes/dp/0312362919/rustic-bread-recipe-20" rel="nofollow" rel="nofollow"><strong>Buy Cheap Artisan Bread In Five Minutes A Day The Discovery That Revolutionizes Home Baking Lowest Price, Order Now!
