When people see Erin McDowell frost a perfect layer cake, weave a
lattice pie crust, or pull a rich loaf of brioche from the oven,
they often act as though she's performed culinary magic. "I'm not a
baker," they tell her. But in fact, expert baking is not at all
unattainable, nor is it as inflexible as most people assume. The
key to freedom is to understand the principles behind how
ingredients interact and how classic methods work. Once these
concepts are mastered, favorite recipes can be altered and
personalized almost endlessly. With the assurance born out of years
of experience, McDowell shares insider tips and techniques that
make desserts taste as good as they look. With recipes from
flourless cocoa cookies and strawberry-filled popovers (easy),
through apple cider pie and black-bottom creme brulee (medium), to
a statuesque layer cake crowned with caramelized popcorn
(difficult), and "Why It Works," "Pro Tip," and make-ahead sidebars
with each recipe, this exciting, carefully curated collection will
appeal to beginning and experienced bakers alike.

A sweet baking book of fantastically imaginative remixed Filipino
American dessert recipes, plus essays on the Filipino American
experience by baker-fundraiser Abi Balingit. When the pandemic
started her lonely work-from-home life in 2020, Abi Balingit
channeled all her energy into the one thing that brought her joy:
baking. In her tiny, dimly lit, shared kitchen, she produced
hundreds of "pasalubong" (souvenir) boxes filled with especially
creative treats that blended the Filipino treats and Western style
baked goods she grew up with. Each time, she'd sell out within
hours and donated the proceeds to support her community in need.
Now Abi shares some of these cult-favorite desserts with Mayumu
(which means "sweet" in one of the 8 major languages in
Philippines), an incredibly fresh baking book of 75 recipes that
span from the never-before-seen, incredibly inventive flavor
combinations that Abi dreamed up, to the more familiar, classic
Filipino favorites: Adobo Chocolate Chip Cookie Strawberry
Shortcake Sapin-Sapin (Rice Cakes) Ube Macapuno Molten Lava Cakes
Matcha Pastillas Melon Chicharron Crumble Halo-Halo Baked Alaska
Throughout, essays following Abi's heritage and self-discovery
introduce the flavors and experiences that have shaped her life,
from visiting the motherland and her parents' birthplace in
Pampanga, Philippines, to California where she grew up and went to
school, to her now home Brooklyn, NY. This beautiful book is a
celebration of the Filipino American experience, perfect for home
bakers wanting both nostalgic and excitingly new recipes.

Have you ever tasted a real homemade custard pudding? And no, we
don't mean the one that comes from a packet, but a beautiful,
trembling cream dessert made the old fashioned way with eggs,
sugar, milk and cream. In Quivering Desserts & Other Puddings
you will find recipes for both classic puddings such as vanilla,
almond, chocolate and wonderful contemporary versions such as
salted caramel pudding with caramel popcorn and white chocolate
pudding with jasmine tea. And much, much more. Sounds difficult? It
is not. A real pudding just requires a little time at the stove and
some hours in the refrigerator. And the reward - a quivering cream
artwork that makes children quiver and adults sigh.
