 What could be as appetising as the smell of freshly baked bread? Few types of cooking are as satisfying as making and kneading a dough, leaving it to rise and waiting as your kitchen fills with the savoury aroma of your perfect loaf.

This new collection of bread recipes takes the stress out of baking, distilling decades of wisdom into a comprehensive introduction - advice on using yeast, how to knead, choosing the right flour and what to do if things go wrong.

• Includes 500 recipes for all types of bread - savoury and sweet; traditional and exotic; breads for breakfast and to eat with a main meal; and breads drawing on centuries of breadmaking knowledge
• Includes flatbreads and other unleavened breads, as well as breads catering for gluten-free and dairy-free diets
• Many of the recipes are quick and simple enough to be fitted into your weekly routine - making homemade bread a regular, stress-free addition to your diet
