This brilliant collection of sweet confections and savoury nibbles
will inspire and entice bakers and lovers of afternoon tea, of all
ages. Set against a backdrop of twelve of Britain's most stunning
palaces and residences, the recipes are a mix of traditional,
contemporary and whimsical; each one with its own unique twist.
Every chapter tells a tale, with inspiration drawn from sources as
diverse as a 200-year-old royal banquet menu, an intriguing
17th-century chocolate kitchen commissioned by William III and
Queen Victoria's highland retreat. Gingerbread soldiers in sentry
boxes, striking raspberry swirl meringues, miniaturised cream
scones, cacao nib nuggets and warm salmon tartlets are just a few
of the teatime temptations. Written by the Former Personal Chef to
TRH the Prince and Princess of Wales.
A simple, stylish cookbook full of desserts that come together faster than you can eat them—from the New York Times bestselling author of Dining In and Nothing Fancy .
Before Alison Roman made recipes so perfect that they go by one name—The Cookie, The Pasta, The Lemon Cake—she was a restaurant pastry chef who spent most of her time learning to make things the hard way. She studied flavor, technique, and precision, then distilled her knowledge to pare it all down to create dessert recipes that feel special and approachable, impressive and doable. In Sweet Enough , Alison has written the book for people who think they don’t have the time or skill to pull off dessert. Here, the desserts you want to make right away, you can make right away.
Alison shows you how to make simple yet sublime sweets with her trademark casualness, like how to make jam in the oven, then turn that jam into a dessert—swirled into ice cream or folded into easy one-bowl cake batter. (Opening a jar of jam is more than fine, too.) She waxes poetic on the virtues of frozen fruit and teaches you the best way to throw your own Sundae Party. There are effortless cakes that take just minutes to get into a pan. And there are new, instant classics with a signature Alison twist, like Salted Lemon Pie, Raspberries and Sour Cream, Toasted Rice Pudding, or a Caramelized Maple Tart. Requiring little more than your own two hands and a few mixing bowls, the recipes are geared towards those without fancy equipment or specialty ingredients.
Whether you’re a dedicated baker or, better yet, someone who doesn’t think they are a baker, Sweet Enough lets you finish any dinner, any party, or any car ride to a dinner party with a little something wonderful and sweet.
Say goodbye to fourth-night-in-a-row meat loaf and identical
