Book by Day Martha

A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

There's a good reason why supermarkets use a bread-scented aroma in their aisles - it recalls childhood days in the kitchen with mother with homemade bread in the oven and cakes and biscuits cooling on the side. Although today most bread is bought sliced and cakes packaged in cellophane, there is no denying that homebaked treats go down better and are more satisfying all round. This celebration of baking by Martha Day covers breads such as traditional Welsh bara brith together with the more exotic banana and cardamom; muffins in all forms; cakes from luscious walnut layer cake to the unusual lemon yoghurt ring; pies and tarts from traditional treacle to Georgia peanut butter; and cookies and bars encompassing drop cookies to shaped biscuits. Produced in true Lorenz style, it is an extremely attractive, well laid-out book. Special techniques are well illustrated and clearly explained whilst the luscious photographs almost make you think the delicious treats contained herein are real and edible. For anyone who loves baking and enjoys giving friends and family a treat, this offers a wonderful range of traditional and modern recipes to suit all tastes. --- Lucy Watson

Présentation de l'éditeur :

This compendium offers an irresistible spread of recipes for baked goods. A comprehensive introduction covers all the ingredients, equipment and skills you will need, including how to line tins, bake blind, or make a lattice top for a pie. There is a profusion of tempting recipes, with traditional favourites such as Shortbread ranged alongside the more sophisticated Orange and Walnut Swiss Roll. There is also a chapter of low fat bakes. Rich cakes like Nectarine Amaretto Cake prove that low in fat doesn't have to mean low in taste. If you want to bake your own bread, you'll find a huge selection to choose from. Beginning with everyday staples like rye bread, you can then move on to herb-flavoured breads or fruit and nut breads. Fill your kitchen with the irrestible scents of baking with this guide.
