A must have for the home baker
| Customer Rating: | This book has probably the most recipes that I use over and over again. I know that many true "pastry chefs" cringe at the thought of America's Test Kitchen because of their non-traditional methods and/or ingredients, but it always ends up coming down to one thing for me - their recipes work. They are reproducible and have been lab tested for a taste and texture that mostly I agree with. I don't need a 3 star Michelin chef telling me what's good - good pastry is what tastes good to me.
I admit though that some of the recipes go against the grain of traditional baking. Example, they insist that key lime pie tastes better when made from regular limes and not key limes - something considered sacrilege. I also have to agree that their tasting panel's determination as to what tastes good can be skewed at times and not necessarily accurate to what you may think is good. I have always been able to tweak the recipes to adjust for my tastes, so I didn't find this too much of a problem. |

Excellent Recipes
| Customer Rating: | | The Devil's Food cupcakes and Blueberry muffin recipe is the best I've ever made or purchased. If there are a few more recipes that turn out as well, this book is well worth it. |
LOTS of recipes
| Customer Rating: | This cookbook is fabulous if you love to bake. I can't think of one recipe I've wanted to try and wasn't able to find it in this book.
The whole reason I bought this book is because a friend made homemade blueberry muffins from a recipe in this book and they were the best I've ever had.
Another recipe I go back to at least once a month is for Buttermilk Biscuits. Delicious!
There is lots of information other than recipes - guides and diagrams on how to do things (cut/slice, etc.), pictures, etc.
This would be a great gift for anyone who loves to bake! |
LOVE IT!!! Can't Get Enough of this Book!
| Customer Rating: | | That's how good it is! All the stuff that I've been trying to look for is all here! I just borrowed it from the library and kept renewing it over and over again. Hahaha!! I tried a bunch of recipes in this book. The carrot cake at first threw me off the loop. But, the second time I tried it, I whipped the eggs and sugars until it became light and fluffy and it came out perfect! I even added some chopped pineapple to it and chopped toasted pecans and it came out beautifully. To die for Sour cream fudge cake, the yummy lace cookies, and, oh my, the thick and chewy chocolate chip cookies!!!! I got to buy myself a copy of this book for sure!!! |
