Has anyone else tried this bread? It is delicious and so easy. The idea is that you keep a high-moisture, no knead dough in your fridge and take out a little at a time to bake when you need it. I wanted to pass this along. I got the book for my birthday and love it.
Here is a link to the book:

Now this sounds like a dream come true! I have a pretty poor track record when it comes to making bread. I'll look at the bookstore & see if they have this book there. I need to read the recipes over before I decide if it is something I can actually do. Thanks for telling us about it!

oh, thanks SO much for the recommendation!! Ironically, Ihave been following - and really enjoying - the author's blog (http://www.zoebakes.com/) but hadn't yet really read about this book. I have a gift certificate to amazon.com which I am going to use to get this book! |

Hi Annie,
Another vote in favor of this book! It's great and, for me, really took the intimidation factor out of home-baked bread. I bought this book about a year ago after reading a review about it in the food section of my newspaper. I really thought it sounded gimmicky at first, but once you get the hang of it, it really does only take a few minutes. I've made a few of the dough recipes but am definitely looking forward to branching out a bit to the remainder of the book. I'd say what I've used the technique for the most so far is for pizza - it is just so easy!

Annie, I love this book! I keep a bucket of dough in my fridge at all times! My daughter and I bake a loaf every day or so. It is so easy to whip up and divine to eat with olive oil and shaved parmesan! I use an empty 5 quart ice cream bucket (we eat alot of ice cream as well!) I gave my college daughter a bucket and the recipe so she can have homemade bread at school. I haven't tried any of the other recipes in the book because the basic one is SO easy!

I haven't tried the bread but I remember a muffin recipe that you could mix up a big batch of and keep in the fridge and just take out what you needed each morning. My problem is finding room in the fridge...

Oooh, I like that! I'll have to get that one some day (soon, I hope). I spend a lot of time on the weekends making dough, shaping and freezing it until I need it. But still have to wait for it to thaw and rise again. And it's just plain white or wheat bread. This book sounds great!
