Every day, thousands of Bostonians and city visitors can't resist buying sweet and savory treats from an alumna of Harvard with a degree in economics who has made it her mission, as Boston Radio proclaims, "to make food that's just so good you can't stop eating it." From Homemade Pop-Tarts to Brioche au Chocolat, Lemon Raspberry Cake to perfect croissants, Joanne Chang's repertoire of baked goods is deep and satisfying. While at Harvard she discovered that nothing made her happier than baking cookies, leading her on a path that eventually resulted in a sticky bun triumph on the Food Network's Throwdown with Bobby Flay. In Flour, she has created an instructive and inspiring guide to baking that appeals to novice and experienced bakers alike. Nearly 150 recipes, sorted into chapters on Breakfast Treats, Cookies, Cakes, Pies + Tarts, Other Sweets, and Breads, are easy to follow and achieve successfully. Paired with gorgeous photographs and indispensable chapters on techniques, equipment, ingredients, and "Joanne's Top 12 Baking Tips," this mouthwatering collection is an accessible, instant classic cookbook for the home baker.BAKING BOOK TO SAVOR: Bread, pastry, pies, cakes, cookies, and desserts of all kinds have captured the imaginations of home cooks.
