3.0 out of 5 stars Not sure they know what they're talking about..., October 7, 2005

By	Roady Jane (Albuquerque, NM) - See all my reviews

I did find this book helpful for bread baking tips, but as far as teaching a thing or two about how to adjust recipes for high altitude, I haven't really found what I need. It talks about some differences in baking at high altitude and sea level, but doesn't show you how to adjust other recipes to make up for the differences. Maybe I just can't find it? I also made cupcakes from this book and cupcakes from a non-high-altitude cookbook and the ones from this book were dense, hard and icky. I live at over 5,000 feet and thought these recipes would work better here than average recipes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, help for baking at high altitude, October 5, 2003

By A Customer

I love this book - it has adjustments for unadjusted receipes and over 200 recipes for 3,500 to 10,000 feet. You have to try the mocha chip cookies - yum!

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally a normal looking cookie!, January 14, 2006

By	MtnGerl "mtngerl" - See all my reviews

This review is from: High Altitude Baking: 200 Delicious Recipes & Tips for Great Cookies, Cakes, Breads & More (Paperback)

I live in the S.CA mountains at 6000 ft, and since moving here I have been at a loss in terms of turning out a decent oatmeal cookie. I have made several attempts, with different recipes, but to no avail. The end result was, sadly, always the same: a flat disc.

I had almost given up on my cookie baking when I found this book. I just finished baking up the oatmeal cookie recipe, and they turned out perfectly...just like what I remember from my old days in Orange County. There didn't seem to be enough of the ingredients including sugar and flour when I was making the recipe, but what do I know, the recipe turned out a beautifully plump batch of cookies. I am going to try a cake next and report back. What a thrill to successfully bake again...
