5.0 out of 5 stars
An impressive diversity of recipes,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Williams-Sonoma Food Made Fast: Desserts (Food Made Fast) (Hardcover)
Featuring an impressive diversity of recipes by award-winning pastry chef and cookbook author Elinor Klivans, "Food made Fast: Desserts" is a compilation of fabulous, elegant, sophisticated, but thoroughly 'kitchen cook friendly' delicacies that would crown any meal, celebrate any occasion, please any palate, and satisfy any appetite. Each of these desserts is beautifully illustrated with the full-color photography of Jeff Tuck and Kevin Hossler. The individual desserts are organized into three main sections: 30 Minutes Start to Finish; 15 Minutes Hands on Time; and Make More to Store. They range from an Italian Affrogato; Pears Poached in White Wine; Chocolate Mocha Mousse; and Plum Sorbet; to a Lemon Pudding Cake; Blueberry Streusel Galette; Hot Fudge Parfaits; and a Chocolate Icebox Cake. Of special note are the occasional 'Cook's Tips' sidebars; 'The Smarter Cook' commentary; and 'The Well-Stocked Kitchen' advisory. Published under the general editorship of Williams-Sonoma founder Chuck Williams, "Food Made Fast: Desserts" is highly recommended for community library cookbook collections in general, and the personal reference collections for time-stressed family chefs in particular!

Tasty recipes of many favorites, great pictures,

This review is from: Williams-Sonoma Food Made Fast: Desserts (Food Made Fast) (Hardcover)
I fully admit that I am one of those people that get inspired to bake or cook something based on the pictures, so it's nice to see a beautiful shot of each recipe in this book.
There is a nice variety of baking favorites and I'll be baking my way through this one :) There are a couple of things that I felt were sort of sloppily done, which is why I didn't rate it a 5* (e.g. some page numbers in the index are incorrect and there is no recipe for the beautiful berry galette on the front cover - I assume it's meant to show an alternate version of the blueberry streusel galette on page 77, it's just not mentioned anywhere...) I made the lemon tart with rasperries and it was delicious..the crust came out perfect and it was easy to make. The caramelized bananas with coconut are next!
