You bread picture looks fabulous! Hope it is OK that I use this meduim to ask you this question bcuz I have not had any success with the other review/comments boards. I am very new to the wonderful word of bread making and I am actively looking for a good book that will give great instructions for almost foolproof recipes. However, in reading many of the reviews on the "new" trend called No Kneading or Almost no Kneading, one of the comment that often pops up is the lack of/little taste these no knead breads generate. I would like to find a book that would have great bread recipes/instructions BUT whose breads also taste GOOD. I came across the Artisan bread in 5 min and the other one KAF also features by Nancy Bagget Kneadlessly Simple. I am very tempted to buy this latter one - Bagget's book. Can someone tell me what is the difference between the two (as they appear to be very, very similar) and whether Bagget's breads are more flavorful. In the end, I do want to make bread in a simple way, but I would not want to forego taste just for the heck of "easiness". Much appreciate your feedback. PS - your bread does look flavorful though! Both 5 Minute and Nancy's book give excellent advice on no knead baking. I think either one would be a great intro. Frank @ KAF.
