Baking with Julia: Savor the Joys of Baking with America's Best Bakersby Dorie Greenspan and Julia Child
Powells.com Staff PickJulia Child was a rare bird, a TV chef who became a household name, a pop culture superstar. So it's no surprise that toward the end of her life Child became the Grande matriarch of chefs everywhere. Her exalted status made possible one of the great television events (okay, if you're a foodie) of recent years (Iron Chef excepted), the wildly popular PBS series, Cooking with Master Chefs. Baking with Julia, one of two spin-off titles from this series, brings together Julia Child's down-to-earth sophistication and the expertise of a handful of America's greatest bakers. Universally hailed on its publication as a landmark in baking cookbooks, Baking with Julia was yet one more achievment in an extraordinary life. Martin, Powells.com Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Baking with Julia is not only a book full of glorious recipes but also one that continues Julia's teaching tradition. Here, basic techniques come alive and are made easily comprehensible in recipes that demonstrate the myriad ways of raising dough, glazing cakes, and decorating crusts. This is the resource you'll turn to again and again for all your baking needs. With Baking with Julia in your cookbook library, you can become a master baker. With nearly two hundred recipes, and half as many pages of tantalizing full-color photographs, this incomparable kitchen companion goes far beyond what most cookbooks offer. More than fifty pages of illustrated reference sections define basic terms and techniques, and explain the hows and whys of batters and doughs to take you effortlessly through the essential techniques. If you've never made flaky pie crust, your first no-fail experience is at hand. If you've never baked bread, that most satisfying and sensual pleasure awaits the turn of a page. With recipes for breads, pastries, cookies, and cakes - from chocolate to cheesecake, from miniature gems to multi-tiered masterpieces - this cookbook is a total immersion experience in the wonder of home baking.
