Most recipes are developed and employed at or close to sea level,
so what is a baker to do if they live 5,000 feet higher? In The
Mountain Baker, longtime mountain dwellers Mimi Council and Kimmy
Fasani share their recipes for successful cakes, cookies, muffins,
breads, and beyond. With their firsthand experience, Council and
Fasani are just the women to talk about the science behind
high-altitude baking and cooking. From hearty eats and apres snacks
to decadent desserts, these recipes include conversions for
sea-level kitchens, so home bakers can enjoy these treats wherever
they cook: Double Black Diamond Brownies, Honey Graham Pancakes,
Rosemary Parmesan Biscotti, Pizza Bread, Snow Day Cake, and more.
With tips on why your alpine cakes are sinking or why your cookies
are burning, this is the go-to resource to help readers fearlessly
face their high-altitude kitchen or simply get in the outdoor
spirit.
Gluten-free bakes can be every bit as delicious as traditional
treats. With a little know-how from Honeybuns, you can enjoy
gorgeous cakes, muffins, brownies, flapjacks, biscuits and puddings
that contain no wheat or gluten. With 20 years of experience in
baking, Emma Goss-Custard reveals how to make gluten-free baking
deliciously easy. You'll find recipes for all your favourite
teatime bakes, from Lemon drizzle cake and A very chocolatey cake
to Baked apple muffins and Heathcliff brownies. There are lots of
puddings too, including Baked lemon cheesecake, Chocolate and
raspberry tartlets, Peach and raspberry roulade and Chocolate lime
pie. Packed with practical tips and with a guide to ingredients,
this book gives you all the inspiration and practical advice you
need to make your baking gluten-free and gorgeous!
Our day is marked by what comes out of the pastry section, and
there's always something good on the way: sticky buns full of
cherries and pistachios in the morning; a loaf of rich dough rolled
with chocolate, hazelnuts and cinnamon that has been proving since
dawn and comes out of the oven fresh for elevenses. Lunch is a
crisp, crumbly shell of pastry filled with spiced lamb or burnt
aubergine, and at teatime there are cheesecakes and fruit cakes,
small cakes and massive cookies - so many cakes that it's hard to
choose one. (There's no need to worry, whatever you choose will be
great!) After dinner there might be poached peaches with roses or
something more traditional, sweet and salty Knafe drenched in
orange blossom syrup, or maybe just a small piece of fresh
marzipan. There's something sweet, something in the oven for
everyone, all day long - welcome to Honey & Co. Chapters
include: How to be good at baking: general notes; Store cupboard;
Sweet & savoury breakfasts; Elevenses; Lunch; Teatime;
Traditional desserts
