Dough: $9.76 Mort Zachter’s childhood revolved around a small shop on Manhattan’s Lower East Side known in the neighborhood as “the day-old bread store.” It was a bakery where nothing was baked, owned by his two eccentric uncles who referred to their goods as “the merchandise.” Zachter grew up sleeping in the dinette of a leaking Brooklyn tenement. He lived a classic immigrant story—one of a close-knit, working-class family struggling to make it in America. Only they were rich.In Dough, Zachter chronicles the life-altering discovery made at age thirty-six that he was heir to several million dollars his bachelor uncles had secretly amassed in stocks and bonds. Although initially elated, Zachter battled bitter memories of the long hours his mother worked at the bakery for no pay. And how could his own parents have kept the secret from him while he was a young married man, working his way through night school? As he cleans out his uncles’ apartment, Zachter discovers clues about their personal lives that raise more questions than they answer. He also finds cake boxes packed with rolls of two-dollar bills and mattresses stuffed with coins.In prose that is often funny and at times elegiac, Zachter struggles with the legacy of his enigmatic family and the implications of his new-found wealth. Breaking with his family’s workaholic heritage, Zachter abandons his pragmatic accounting career to pursue his lifelong dream of being a writer. And though he may not understand his family, in the end he realizes that forgiveness and acceptance matter most.

My Bread: $17.97 For an author biography, beautiful photos from the book, and recipes, click here. Inspired by the ancient art of Italian bread making, Jim Lahey developed artisanal bread that is entirely his own and soon can be yours. It takes only a pot to create what Mark Bittman in the New York Times calls “the best no-work bread you have ever made.” The method, which captured worldwide attention, is practically foolproof and allows the home baker to let the dough rise slowly, without any kneading or fuss, and then bake it in a heavy, preheated pot. Lahey also shares the fun of making his inventive recipes for classic breads like the rustic Italian baguette, the stirato, and his famous pizza bianca. With step-by-step instructions and full color photographs of finished loaves, My Bread is perfect for home cooks who have always wanted to make beautiful, deeply flavored bread but found traditional recipes dauntingly complicated.

How to Braid Bread

You can give your favorite kneaded yeast bread or coffee cake an intriguing twist by shaping it into a braid. For picture perfect results, just follow these simple directions.

Plan to make one braid from a recipe based on 3 ½ to 4 cups flour, and two braids from a recipe based on 5 to 6 cups of flour.

Preparing the dough:

1. Mix up the bread dough following recipe instructions.
2. Knead the dough and let it rise in a warm place till double.
3. Punch down.
4. For each braid, divide the dough into thirds and shape each portion into a ball.
5. Cover and let rise 10 minutes so dough will be easier to handle.
6. On a lightly floured surface roll each ball into an evenly thick rope about 16 inches long.
7. Line up the three ropes, 1 inch apart, on a greased baking sheet.

Braiding the bread:

1. Begin in the middle of the ropes and work toward the ends.
2. (Working from the middle is easier and helps avoid stretching the dough, which results in an uneven loaf.)
3. Braid the ropes loosely so the dough has room to expand without cracking or losing its shape.
4. Gently straighten the ropes on the baking sheet.
5. Pinch the ends of the ropes together and tuck the sealed portion under the braid so the ropes, won’t come apart during baking.
6. Cover the braid and let rise in a warm place till almost double.
7. For a crisp, shiny crust, brush the braid with a mixture of 1 egg yolk and 1 tablespoon milk.
8. If desired, sprinkle with a little sugar, sesame seed, or poppy seed atop each braid.
9. Bake as directed in the recipe.
