Hot Brands Verdict Imagine wonderful meals accompanied by your own home made bread, this is no longer a fantasy, Bertinent’s wonderful book and step-by-step DVD will transform your dreams into reality. There is no smell quite as evocative as the aroma of freshly baked bread, and his revolutionary way of ‘working’ the dough rather than ‘kneading’ it, means that the end result is beautifully light and melts in your mouth.

Here at Hot Brands we can vouch for how easy it is, after a hard day in the office Louise has been competing with our Hot Cook for the oven and has been creating the most magical bread. Our breakfasts, lunches and dinners have been transformed, we now have bread baskets full of the most sumptuous treats; Bertinet’s signature baguettes, delicious puff balls with a salad peeking through, or the amazingly simple, but beautiful fougasse. We can’t wait to try the tomato, garlic and basil bread, or the apricot and almond tart. Packed with mouth watering recipes, and full of evocative beautiful photographs by Jean Cazals , the book is an art form in itself.


What we love about this book is that it really does do what it says on the cover, after years of experimenting with making bread, the smile on Louise’s face says it all “I did it!” Buy it and you will never want to buy a supermarket loaf again!!
