Amy’s Bread is a legendary New York institution that serves some 50,000 customers every month and supplies bread to more than 300 restaurants and stores daily. Long out of print, Amy’s Bread shares Amy Scherber’s recipes and techniques for everything from basic loaves to artisan breads. Now fully revised and updated, this full-color edition includes more than fifty recipes for home bakers at every level of experience.
Amy’s Bread starts with the basics like Big Beautiful White Pan Loaf and French Baguette before progressing to more complicated recipes like Whole Wheat Sandwich Bread with Oats and Pecans and Semolina Bread with Apricots and Sage. But there’s more here than just bread—recipes for pizzas, sandwiches, and sweet treats are also included.
• A helpful introduction covers basic bread baking techniques, starters, ingredients, and equipment
• 130 full-color photos illustrate bread shaping and scoring techniques, as well as photos and personal stories that reveal the inner workings of the bakery
• Artisan breads can cost $5 or more at the market; this book lets you make them at home for just a fraction of the cost
Whether you’ve just discovered the joy of bread baking or you’ve been doing it for decades, this revised classic will keep your oven hot for years to come.

The Best Cooking Games Online
Jun 1, 2010 Online Bakery
If you love cooking games, you should absolutely enjoy playing the games online. The online cooking games are surprisingly simple, but plenty of fun. It is the ongoing and increasing challenge of the game that makes them so thrilling and can almost make you addicted to the games.
Pizza Cooking Games
In the pizza games, you are making some deep dish specials for the imaginary customers. As the pizza chef, you will be slinging dough in the virtual sense as you pile on the toppings and make the pizzas to order. The orders will speed up, of course, making you work that much faster to get the pizzas made and in the oven before the next order comes in. Pretty soon you’ll feel like you’re up to your elbows in virtual flour and cheese.
Barbecue Cooking Games
In the popular barbecue games, you, the chef, will be grilling up all of the crowd favorites. Start with grilled chicken kabobs and some hamburgers before the orders start piling up for the more elaborate items. You have to get the items on the grill cooking before you can load them up onto the waiting plate and send it out. If you forget something, your orders stack up and food starts burning. Once you reach this point, you are panicked trying to pick up the pace and get everything back on track. Sometimes you make it – and sometimes you do not.
Ice Cream Cooking Games
Who does not love to make sundaes? In the ice cream games, you have options of creating ice cream sundaes or making ice cream cones and confections for waiting customers. The faster you can whip up a triple scoop of anything, the better your score will be. The biggest down side of playing ice cream games is that you’ll feel a compelling need to enjoy a bit of your own ice cream once the game is finished!
Cake Cooking Games
In some games, you are able to actually decorate your own cakes. Start by spreading icing and then decorate the cake with swirls, ribbons, curlicues and anything else you can use to make it more realistic and dramatic. The best cakes are fun to look at and fun to decorate. Playing cake games definitely captures the best of this element while you play.
Ethnic Cooking Games
There any many different versions of ethnic games as well. In these games, you are able to experience the different forms of food preparation from around the globe which is a very nice treat after playing some of the games you are likely more familiar with already. Learn to make stir-fry online or create all kinds of soups and chili’s. As many of the games are created in Asian countries, there are a nice variety of foods created from that culture as well in most of the games.
