This is the book most culinary schools useFeb 27, 2010 I'm a student at a culinary arts college and this is the book we use for our baking class. You can tell that the book has years of experience behind it and input from chefs from all over the country. This book may not be the best for a novice cook, but if you already know your way in the kitchen you can learn a lot from this book.
For the enthusiastFeb 18, 2010 The book is great! It details baking from the beginning and offers lots of recipes including breads, pies, cakes, pasties, petit fours, and special dietary items, like gluten-free etc. I also like the section that familiarizes the reader with common commercial kitchen equipment and how and why they are used.
Great for BakingFeb 03, 2010 This is an excellent book for any student of baking. Purchased this as a Christmas gift. It was very well received.
Professional BakingFeb 01, 2010 The content serves as a good overview but does not have real depth for learning as a text book. The area I was looking at was laminated dough. If that was the only book I had to learn croissants, I would have a real mess not croissants because the information given was good but there was not enough of it.
