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.

The highly anticipated complement to the "New York Times"
bestselling "Momofuku" cookbook, "Momofuku Milk Bar "reveals the
recipes for the innovative, addictive cookies, pies, cakes, ice
creams, and more from the wildly popular bakery.
A runaway success, the "Momofuku" cookbook suffered from just one
criticism among reviewers and fans: where were Christina Tosi's
fantastic desserts? The compost cookie, a chunky chocolate-chip
cookie studded with crunchy salty pretzels and coffee grounds; the
crack pie, a sugary-buttery confection as craveable as the name
implies; the cereal milk ice cream, made from everyone's favorite
part of a nutritious breakfast--the milk at the bottom of a bowl of
cereal; the easy layer cakes that forgo fancy frosting in favor of
unfinished edges that hint at the yumminess inside.
"
Momofuku Milk Bar" finally shares the recipes for these
now-legendary riffs on childhood flavors and down-home
classics--all essentially derived from ten mother recipes--along
with the compelling narrative of the unlikely beginnings of this
quirky bakery's success. It all started one day when Momofuku
founder David Chang asked Christina to make a dessert for dinner
that night. Just like that, the pastry program at Momofuku began,
and Christina's playful desserts helped the restaurants earn praise
from the "New York Times "and the "Michelin Guide "and led to the
opening of Milk Bar, which now draws fans from around the country
and the world.
With all the recipes for the bakery's most beloved desserts--along
with ones for savory baked goods that take a page from Chang's
Asian-flavored cuisine, such as Kimchi Croissants with Blue
Cheese--and 100 color photographs, "Momofuku Milk Bar" makes baking
irresistible off-beat treats at home both foolproof and fun.
