Customer Reviews

Delicious!

As we were checking in books, we started salivating over the pictures of the sandwiches in this book. To celebrate a colleague's last day, we made some of the paninis. Delicious!

Recipes are Great!

I love the recipes for making first your own bread and matching it with the topping. Daniel Leader did a good job putting this book together.

Great Book

This book has great recipes and amazing photos. Shows how to make all of the great breads as well as how to build the sandwiches. Would definitely recommend. Makes a great gift for the kitchen wizzard in your life.

My husband the picky eater

My husband is a hard sell on cheeses. He's a hard sell on weird combos as well. This book was given to us as a christmas gift. We LOVE LOVE LOVE this book. We have made at least half the recipes. The flat bread recipe is simply nummy. We always make a double batch of it so we can eat some right away with hummus. My husband who is scared of cheeses and weird flavor combos has come to really enjoy BOTH those things from this book. He was afraid of it at first, and the more we tried, the more he loved. The avocado shrimp is just amazing. The garbanzo bean with yogurt we've made a couple times. The apple and gorgonzola is so yummy. Almost every page is newly inspiring. Things I'd NEVER think to put together are just amazing. This is one of my favorite cook books and we try and make a new sandwich every week. There is so much more to making a panini then just heating stuff between bread I learned. The order matters. The temp matters. The bread matters. And it really brings it to the next notch. Very good guys.

Great Resource

Yes, this is this is by the Daniel Leader who wrote Bread Alone and Local Breads, two incredible books on authentic artisan bread baking. This sandwich book is a wonderful resource for home bakers and non-bakers alike. The recipes for the spreads and chutneys are fantastic and can be used for dishes other than sandwiches. You might think, "Doesn't everyone know how to build a sandwich??" Well, yes, but Leader's combinations are particularly delicious. Some are obvious, but are still excellent inspriration for when you have leftovers you do not know what to do with. I definitely recommend this book. Unfortunately, there are numerous typographical errors. Fortunately his formulae are reliable. (Local Breads is full of similarly annoying and distracting errors, so hopefully Leader's editors will become more vigilant in future editions and for future books).
