Synopses & Reviews
A stunning collection of hassle-free
recipes for baking cakes, cookies, tarts, puddings, muffins, bread, and
more, from the editors behind the leading food website Food52.
Whether
it’s the chocolate cake at every childhood birthday, blondies waiting
for you after school, or hot dinner rolls smeared with butter at
Thanksgiving dinner, homemade baked goods hold a place in many of our
best memories. And that’s why baking shouldn’t be reserved for special
occasions.
With this book, curated by the editors of Food52, you
can have homemade treats far superior to the store-bought variety, even
when it feels like you’re too busy to turn on the oven. From Brown
Butter Cupcake Brownies to “Cuppa Cuppa Sticka” Peach and Blueberry
Cobbler, these sixty reliable, easy-to-execute recipes won’t have you
hunting down special equipment and hard-to-find ingredients or leave you
with a kitchen covered in flour and a skink piled high with bowls.
They’re not ordinary or ho-hum, either: ingredients you’ve baked with
before (and some you haven’t – like black sesame, coconut oil, and
lavender) come together to create new favorites like Baked Cardamom
French Toast and Olive Oil and Sesame Crackers. Filled with generations’
worth of kitchen wisdom, beautiful photography, and tips you’ll return
to, Baking is the new go-to collection for anyone who wants to whip up something sweet every day.
