America's Test Kitchen
review 1: I love anything from America's Test Kitchen. This book is about baking, one of my very favorite things to do. The chefs (or should I say scientists) at America's Test Kitchen do such a wonderful job with really breaking down a recipe and making sure they have it just right. I love their explanations as to why certain things work in a recipe and certain things don't (after much testing, of course!). Their tip for understanding the difference between melted butter and softened butter was eye-opening. I also love the fact that they have step by step photos for many recipes. They make baking, cooking, everything, so accessible. When you read their recipes, you think--I can do this! Very highly recommended.
review 2: Awesome! Baking is my favorite type of co
... moreoking and this book gave me some great pointers. Once again, lots of side notes explaining the science behind baking...which is even more precise than in stove top cooking.The recipes I've made have turned out beautifully and were delicious. I like that they are for small batches and have detailed instructions with plenty of step by step pictures. If you like to bake, or want to learn to bake, this is a great book. And the measurements are by volume (unlike many baking books) so you can still make them even if you are like me and don't own a kitchen scale. less
