The construction of this book, first of all, is wonderful. The cover is hard and the binding is heavy, enameled spiral. Each page lays flat on the counter, or you can hold the book open on one arm while doing something with the other hand. This suggests that Betty Crocker wrote her bread-baking cookbook with serious use in mind. She certainly tested her recipes. A variety of bread machines were used, which means that each recipe was tested a number of different times. Betty tells you exactly what kind of flour she used, as well as salt, size of eggs, kind of yeast, etc. She leaves nothing to chance.
Bread machine baking has its own peculiarities, and Betty addresses all these right up front, the hows and how-tos (as well as the whys and wherefores) of getting the perfect loaf every time. There's a troubleshooting section, as well as a frequently asked question section. Then it's right into the recipes, all 130 of them.
There are Good and Savory Loaves (Cheese Onion Bread) and Wholesome Grain Loaves (Toasted Almond Whole Wheat Bread), Fruit and Vegetable Harvest Loaves (Dried Apricot Bread), Smaller Can Be Just Right Loaves (these are one-and-a-half-pound loaves), and then several chapters on breads you start in the bread machine, but finish in the oven. These include braided sweet breads, pizza dough, rustic-style breads, and coffeecakes.
Any bread machine owner is going to love to loaf with Betty Crocker.

"I read all the reviews that precede 2002 and got the book right away. I love the way Hensperger explains ingredients, the science of bread and how the machine works. We use our machine at least 3-4 times a week. Some of my favorites from the book include the Hamburger and Hot Dog Buns (I will never buy storebought again!), the Garlic Foccacia, the Orange Bread with White Chocolate, Apricots and Walnuts, and for sandwiches my family loves the Instant Potato Bread and the Maple Buttermilk Bread, both of which turn out light and fluffly."

Recipes run the gamut from mildly sweet, subtly flavored "Breakfast Breads," like Cranberry Buns, Banana Buttermilk Bread, and Whole Wheat Raisin Bagels, to chewy, firm-slicing "Sandwich Breads," such as Seven-Grain Bread, Lentil Bread, and Italian Sourdough. Creative bakers will love the assortment of stuffed and shaped breads and dumplings and such appetizers as Fresh Tomato Pizza and Chinese Dried Mushroom Dumplings made easily with dough from the bread machine. For people on a low-sodium diet, or smart eaters who just want to cut down on the amount of sodium they ingest, there is an entire chapter on "No-Salt Breads," including many traditional favorites such as Salt-Free Pumpernickel and Salt-Free Onion Rye.
You won't believe the no-sugar sweets-Tart Tatin, Chocolate Tea Bread, and Biscotti with Dried Cherries are just a sampling -- that make up the "Dessert Breads" chapter. These taste luxuriously rich but are low in fat. And so that there's no waste, ideas included in "Bread Again" offer tasty low-fat, no-sugar ways to use leftover loaves.

As an experienced baker who began with wholegrain loaves back in my pre-machine La Leche league days, I found Tom Lacalamita's clearly written, wide-ranging collection of bread recipes to be a marvelous resource. From family favorites, such as cinnamon-raisin bread, to more exotic ventures like
Pesto-and-toasted walnut bread, this book will make it easy to fill your kitchen with the indescribably delicious odor of baking bread."

"When I replaced my 7-yr-old bread machine, the recipes from my collection of best-seller cookbooks didn't work in my new generation machine. Then I tried AMERICA'S BEST. Perfect every time, with no adjustments needed! Since I bake in super-humid Florida and cool crisp New England, recipes have to be absolutely reliable. The Italian Herb Bread has become a family favorite, and the Saffron Currant Bath Buns got rave reviews at our Elizabethan Supper. I am especially happy that AMERICA'S BEST recipes give excellent results with basic grocery-store ingredients, without requiring special (expensive) additives. And I am happiest that they taste good."

Other recipes take advantage of a bread machine's ability to prepare dough for a wide variety of treats, such as Sausage-Stuffed Stromboli or Giant Pecan Sticky Buns.
"I checked this book out from the library before purchasing it from Amazon. I made so many of the recipes that I knew it to be a good buy and great resource for my personal library! I don't think there is a single recipe that I've tried that I wouldn't make again.
I like that suggestions are made for other uses of the recipes, like Alpine Muesli Rolls can be formed into 4 mini loaves, baked and thinly sliced and then used for a base for hors d'oeuvres; or the Giant Parmesan Breadsticks can be made into focaccia and brushed with olive oil and salt. So many of the loaves can also be made into dinner rolls!"
