Farm women across America pride themselves in baking perfect cakes, pies, and breads. Farm Journal has carefully collected, tested, and perfected more than 350 outstanding country recipes, many of them state fair prize winners. In this cookbook that also serves as a short course in baking fundamentals, each chapter includes an extra helpful "what went wrong" section to help the baker correct a soggy souffle or too-crunchy cookies for the next time. Tantalizing yeast breads, quick breads, cakes, cookies, and pies include Danish Kringle, Chocolate Velvet Cake, Date Meringue Bars, and Coconut Cream Pie.
This book is for anyone who bakes and sells or simply wants to learn tips and tricks from a professional. Part one explains about baking and includes all the secrets Ms. Fix learned in her retail, commercial, and home-based baking career. It contains short-cuts, tips, and proven results rarely found anywhere, including recipe and product development, shortcuts for improving kitchen production, and how to adapt commercial baking to home baking. To help readers fully utilize their home kitchens it covers everything you didn't know to ask about how heat and ovens affect baked goods. Part two includes more than 100 of her best-selling recipes with variations and creative ideas to help turn them into signature products, plus information and recipes for healthier baking with whole grains. There's also "Insider Tips" for maximizing sales appeal and a chapter on recycling excess products. Many authors with little or no experience hold themselves up as experts. Ms. Fix, however, with 30 plus years experience in the food industry, actually gives readers usable and productive tips, secrets of the professionals. This book is clearly a recipe for success.
Dorie Greenspan has written recipes for the most eminent chefs in
the world: Pierre Hermé, Daniel Boulud, and arguably the greatest
of them all, Julia Child, who once told Dorie, "You write recipes
just the way I do." Her recipe writing has won widespread praise for its
literate curiosity and "patient but exuberant style." (One hard-boiled
critic called it "a joy forever.") In Baking: From My Home to Yours, her
masterwork, Dorie applies the lessons from three decades of experience
to her first and real love: home baking. The 300 recipes will
seduce a new generation of bakers, whether their favorite kitchen tools
are a bowl and a whisk or a stand mixer and a baker's torch.
Even the most homey of the recipes are very special. Dorie's
favorite raisin swirl bread. Big spicy muffins from her stint as a baker in
a famous New York City restaurant. French chocolate brownies (a
Parisian pastry chef begged for the recipe). A dramatic black and white
cake for a "wow" occasion. Pierre Hermé's extraordinary lemon tart.
The generous helpings of background information, abundant stories,
and hundreds of professional hints set Baking apart as a one-of-a-kind
cookbook. And as if all of this weren't more than enough, Dorie has
appended a fascinating minibook, A Dessertmaker's Glossary, with
more than 100 entries, from why using one's fingers is often best, to
how to buy the finest butter, to how the bundt pan got its name.
Built on the success of the first book, this all new-edition of the best-selling baking binder offers 725 recipes perfect for baking at home.
