A complete treatise on the art of baking.
Why read it?
1 author picked The Art of Fine Baking as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This prim tome may not have any photos, and the author’s voice is somewhat terse, but she comes across with excellent recipes. This is the cookbook that started me on the road to professional baking, as the desserts I made for my novice dinner parties were such hits that I got stars in my eyes. It is definitely Francocentric, but that is a very good place to start if you are a beginner, and if you are an experienced cook, you can’t go wrong with her basic formulas.
From Rick's list on baking for at home bakers.
