I have tried many bread recipes and some are almost passable, but nothing I would rave about or even want to make over and over. I have tried Julia Child bread, Amish White bread, Dense white bread from Cooking with Sue.

I have had success with making naan and recently fresh homemade flour tortillas.

I recently got a book called Inside The Jewish Bakery: Recipes from the Golden age of Jewish Baking from 2011, and I want to try their recipes. I will also try your suggestion United States of Bread by Adrienne Kane. I have never wanted to invest in a mixer because I only make bread every few months or so and I have a small amount of kitchen counter space. Plus it does end of taking up half of a precious weekend day to make it.

Thanks again for your help
