For Christmas, my Mom got me a copy of Peter Reinhart's new book Artisan Breads Every Day. It's like a perfect meld of his award winning The Bread Baker's Apprentice, mixed with the newly popular Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day. This book teaches you to make all kinds of beautiful gourmet breads with minimal effort. What can be better?
I made the cinnamon rolls from The Bread Baker's Apprentice several years ago, and they were amazing--just like the one's from Ann Sather in Chicago. So naturally, I had to see how the easy version of this recipe would go. And let me tell you, they turned out beautifully and couldn't have been easier. If you're looking for a good book to start bread baking, I highly recommend Artisan Breads Every Day!
Sorry folks, these beauties are long gone.

By the way, I am currently knitting your beautiful Shalom pattern. Thank you for sharing it.
Those look absolutely delicious! I'm a big fan of the bread techniques in these books.
Thanks for the comment on my blog. I usually let things like that roll off my back, but I've come to realize that nothing will change unless I speak up.
Ahhh! These look lovely. Also, thanks for the blurb about the cookbook. :) I love Anne Sather!
