Everyone wants to know: How does Dominique do it? Dominique Ansel
is the creator of the Cronut pastry, the croissant-doughnut hybrid
that has taken the world by storm. But he's no one-hit wonder.
Classically trained in Paris, leader of a three-Michelin-starred
pastry kitchen in New York and now the proprietor of New York's
highest-rated bakery, Dominique has become a modern-day Willy
Wonka: the creator of wildly innovative, extraordinarily delicious
and unbelievably popular desserts. Presented here are some of
Dominique's most coveted recipes, organised by skill level and
catering to both amateur and professional bakers. Beginners can
conquer the Chocolate Pecan Cookies with the molten chocolate
centre; more experienced bakers will learn the secrets to the
exquisite caramelised crust of this Cannel de Bordeaux; and the
most adventurous will tackle The At-Home Cronut. In this, his first
cookbook, Dominique reveals not only the secrets to his hit
desserts but he describes the stories of inspiration behind each of
them. The most important element in any dish is not a particular
brand of chocolate or a type of salt but rather the spark of
imagination. At heart, Dominique Ansel is a book about innovation:
how a cook can transform flour, sugar and butter into memories that
last a lifetime; and how anyone, from any field, can try to add a
little magic to their work.
