Yes!? You can make the best bread you ever had, right at home.? Read this book and you'll find out how. Bread! We have friends over and want to commune with them; we break bread. The simple act of showing friendship and fellowship. If we are short on money, we need to make some dough. The simple start to the bread making process is synonymous with making our way in the world. If we find something amazing, it is the best thing since sliced bread. Sliced bread must have been pretty amazing. Was there anything good before it? No one will ever know. If we are celebrating, we make a toast (which I do not think has anything to do with bread, but I was running out of bread-related things to say.) Bread is something we take for granted. It is something which has been part of our culture for thousands of years. It is a part of our daily life. We cannot go anywhere without bumping into a slice of bread. From the humble cheese on toast to the mighty sandwich, to the fantastic grilled cheese sandwich, bread is everywhere. We cannot escape it. We will not escape it. Now that we have that cleared up let’s talk bread. We all know what bread is, there is no need to discuss it any further. The real reason you are here is to learn about how to bake really great bread. Well, I am going to tell you how, and more. We will start with some history before we delve into making great bread. From the dough to the finish, I will tell you everything you need to know about the loaf. From oven baked to bread maker, we will go through the various methods at your disposal. From recipe ideas to what you should do with your stale bread (hint: don’t throw it away), we will learn about the versatility of this humble yeasty treat. There is so much that bread can do and so much that you can do with bread. The ingredients are endless, the recipes are endless; the possibilities are endless. Come on a journey with me as we bake some bread.

A to Z Ice Cream Making Ice Cream at Home for Total Beginners
Lisa Bond
¥32.62
Welcome to this book. The following words are not to be taken lightly. They were not written lightly, but they are words of great importance. They are words which I have never used about any other topic. Until now! Are you ready? Here they are: This book will change your life. There, I said it and you know what? I mean it. This book is about making your own ice cream. That short description alone tells you everything you need to know about the importance of this book. Will this book actually change your life? Yes, yes it will. This book will tell you a little about ice cream and a lot about how to make it. Once you are able to make your own ice cream, the possibilities are endless. You will have an infinite supply of the world's best treat. You will suddenly find yourself the talk of the town, the envy of your neighbors, the "Ice Cream Maker'. With great power comes great responsibility. This book will empower you in your dessert creating skills. You should not take your new role lightly. Your family and friends will be asking you, nay begging you, to make more and more ice cream and do you know what? When you are able to make ice cream, it is your responsibility to make it for all those who want it. If the previous paragraph scares you, then it has done its job. If you are not ready for this life challenge, then close this book and put it back on the shelf, preferably under another book. If you are reading this on an e-reader, then do not do that, just delete it. If you are not ready to become a cold-treat hero, then it is best to stop your journey now, wait for a while and try again when you are ready. If this brief introduction has bolstered you, if it has ignited a fire in you, a fire which could melt a thousand ice cream scoops, then you are ready to begin your journey into the frozen wastelands of sugar and cream. You are ready to pick up the sprinkles and chocolate sauce and dive head first into the sundae of life. It was at this point of the book that I was going to insert a little information about ice cream, a little "what is ice cream?' chapter, but you know what? If I need to explain what ice cream is to you, then you are not ready for this. Besides, who does not know what ice cream is? Instead, let's move onto the next chapter and find out a little about the history of ice cream.
