March 15, 2020 - Comment
Rich collection of recipes for famed low-calorie, high-protein bread, baked goods developed by Cornell University scientist. Breads, rolls, buns, cakes, pizza pie crust, stollen, panettone, etc. Easy-to-follow illustrated instructions.
Highly nutritious bread I have used the formula outlined in the original Cornell Bread Book to make an everyday loaf (and to enrich pancakes, waffles, muffins, etc.) since the late 1960s. Somewhere along the line I lost my original copy of the cookbook. I noticed this one offered for sale on Amazon and bought it for old times sake. It is the revised and enlarged edition of the privately printed 1973 edition, entitled You Can Make Cornell Bread. It is in surprisingly good condition. Although the pages are yellowed…
The bread that supports life! 42 years ago I stumbled upon a bread recipe, Cornell bread, that promised to have all the nutrients necessary for life! We tried it and found it so delicious I began the habit of baking fresh bread each day. Moving to another state our routine changed and I stopped my baking to settle in our new house. Over the years I lost my recipe. Then I googled and found this book on Amazon. I will hang on to this little book for sure. If you’re new to the recipe, you’re in for a real surprise. It’s superb.
Interesting book on background of bread making in the past This book is more historical than current, as I cook whole grain bread far more than white bread.It talks about how to make bread more nutritious, and give some tips for when cooking ‘white bread’ for people who don’t want whole grain bread.A useful addition to the library for a specific purpose.Good range of recipes for different occasions also.
