Baking

It’s big (nearly 400 pages big!), it’s beautiful (we’re talking 2,000 photographs beautiful!), it’s brimming with all sorts of baked treats to elicit “oohs” and “aahs” (300 luscious recipes, in all!)—and with a wealth of great advice from the cook professional cooks turn to when they’re in a bind, it might just become the book you’ll love to turn to again and again when you want to pull something amazing out of the oven.
Every bit as impressive in size and scope as James Peterson’s Cooking (a 2008 James Beard Cookbook of the Year winner), James Peterson’s Baking is a home baker’s delight with classic and innovative recipes for:
• yeasted breads, quick breads and bread-based desserts, such as Popovers and Apple Charlottes
• a scrumptious array of to-die-for cakes
• cookies, cookies and more cookies, even Macaroons
• pies, tarts and pastries, including Eclairs, Cheese Straws and Mushroom Jalousie
The recipes are broken down into bite-sized instructions and accompanied by step-by-step photos to guide you. In fact, they’re actually tailor-made for anyone intimidated by techniques such as making a sourdough starter or croissants AND adventurous types in search of their next delicious baking challenge!
