Baking is the heart of cooking: a tradition passed down through families that leads to the wonderful aroma of fresh biscuits, the satisfaction of kneading bread, and the celebration of a special cake. From slicing a fruit loaf straight from the oven to mixing together a batch of muffins, the pleasure of baking is as much in the making as in the eating. Featuring sections that guide beginners through easy, quick-mix recipes to more challenging techniques, this latest book in the best-selling ESSENTIAL series also contains step-by-step photographs and professional tips to make it easy to perfect your baking. Temptingly presented with full-color photographs, this book is the must-have secret ingredient for every kitchen. Previous books in the cookbook series include ESSENTIAL CHRISTMAS, APPETIZERS, SEAFOOD, ASIAN, DESSERT, PASTA, and VEGETARIAN.

good basic,
By EWSF (San Francisco, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Essential Baking Cookbook (The Essential Series) (Paperback)
This is a good, broad, basic baking book. It includes every category of baking from cakes to crackers. The pictures are great. It includes sections that detail what you might have done wrong if your dish does not turn out the way it was supposed to (very helpful, pictures in these sections too). The only problem I have run into is that the book is not written for an American audience. It uses different words for some ingredients like cornflour or casting sugar.

This review is from: The Essential Baking Cookbook (The Essential Series) (Paperback)
I don't have a lot of experience with bread making and other yeast risen foods. This book explains things in so much detail and the pictures are wonderful. I always thought anything with yeast in it was extremely difficult. It's not! It's easy! I have made several types of bread now, pizza crust, and pretzels and they have all been succussful. I am having so much fun baking.

Essential Series,

This review is from: The Essential Baking Cookbook (The Essential Series) (Paperback)
This is absoultely one cookbook that everyone should own. We own the entire series and there is no other cookbook like it. There are beautiful pictures for every recipe and the recipes are very unique, interesting, and delicious. Several recipes will suggest ingredients that may be difficult or expensive to find but the recipes can also be simplified. My husband loves to cook and looooves this entire series of cookbooks. This cookbook will help any chef tap into their creativity and explore their passion for cooking and take it to a new level.
