5.0 out of 5 stars Best baking book I've ever owned, October 14, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: How Baking Works (Kindle Edition)
I have thirteen books on baking, and this is the most indispensable of all of them. Without the knowledge you'll gain from this book, you could make the same baking mistakes over and over again... for years... without really knowing WHY something didn't work or what EXACTLY you could do to make it better. Don't buy other baking/recipe books until you've mastered the fundamental baking science you'll learn in "How Baking Works." I promise you it is worth the 20 hours or so you'll spend reading it as it will save you hundreds of hours in averted disasters throughout your baking career. One other tip is to buy books on baking techniques (Wayne Gisslen's "Professional Baking" is a good foundation for techniques). Memorize all of those techniques before you try to perfect any recipe. Once you've committed the science and techniques to memory, go buy baking books that have all of your favorite recipes. They will taste and look better, I promise!
