5.0 out of 5 stars Book gives recipes with consistent results, March 24, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Professional Baking, Trade Version (Hardcover)
Book written for the professional baker which is adaptable to the home baker. Everything is weighed which is not so hard to do. Does require a small fairly accurate kitchen scale in $20 range. Does point out why some favorite recipes have a bad habit of flopping when you are trying to make them for special occasion(for example: flour varies in the water content, which does affect end product). You must be able to downsize recipes for home use.

This is not a cookbook for the home baker, but no professional should be without this all encompassing book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good ...but, September 14, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Professional Baking, Trade Version (Hardcover)
Although I needed this book for school, i did notice some problems with a few reciepes. I have spoke with other pastry chefs about this and they agree. There are some adjustments to be made when dealing with the mousse reciepes in this book
