The ultimate guide to classic bakes and modern favourites that doesn't just tell you what to do - it shows you. What's the difference between beating and folding? What should "soft peaks" look like? How do you line a pastry crust? When it comes to baking, knowing what an instruction means can be the difference between a showstopper and a soggy bottom. That's where Complete Baking comes in. Each of the 80 classic recipes in this essential collection is fully illustrated, with photographs of every stage of the baking process. See what other baking books only tell you: how to knead dough, rub together butter and flour, and create a pastry lattice to top a pie or tart. Then try your hand at more than 250 variations on those classics, or use them as inspiration to build on what you've learned and experiment with your own baking creations. If you're spoilt for choice, at-a-glance recipe choosers help you find the right recipe for any occasion, while tips on freezing help you to prepare your bakes ahead of time. With sweet and savoury recipes that everyone will enjoy, it's time to roll up your sleeves, flour your work surface, and whip up something superb with Complete Baking.
Koelsoem en Flori, Suid-Afrika se gunsteling-tannies van Bonteheuwel, is terug met hul tweede boek, Soettand. In die boek deel hulle poedings en soetgebak wat dekades lank al familiegunstelinge is, soos Ouma Rachel se doekpoeding, onderstebo-tert, Mamma Rose se potpoeding, Maleise koesisters, bobaas-bollas, Yuwin se waatlemoenysies, gemmerpoeding, broodpoeding met ’n verskil, Hertzoggies en die berugte Tweegevrietjies. Die eerlike en onopgesmukte kos uit die hartjie van Koelsoem Kamalie en Flori Schrikker se kombuise in Bonteheuwel op die Kaaspe Vlakte het Suid-Afrikaners geheel en al betower. Die twee afgetrede tannies se onfeilbare resepte, perfek beproef na jare se ondervinding, het daarvoor gesorg dat Kook saam Kaaps, hul eerste boek, topverkoperstatus bereik het, met amper 10 000 eksemplare wat binne ses maande verkoop is. Koelsoem en Flori het ook hul eie kookreeks van 13 episodes op televisie losgeslaan. Flori en Koelsoem se kosse word elke Woensdagaand om 18:00 op VIA (kanaal 147) uitgesaai.
An early fall cobbler with blackberries bubbling in their juice
beneath a golden cream biscuit. A crunchy oatmeal crisp made with
mid-summer's nectarines and raspberries. Or a comforting pear bread
pudding to soften a harsh winter's day. Simple, scrumptious,
cherished-these heritage desserts featuring local fruit are
thankfully experiencing a long-due revival.
Boy, do we love our s'mores. Americans buy an estimated 90 million pounds of marshmallows a year, and more than half are toasted and sandwiched with a chocolate bar between two graham crackers. Which inspired Dan Whalen to ask: What would happen if you kept the s'mores architecture - three layers of gooey, melty, and crunchy - but changed it up? The result: Salted Caramel S'mores, Lemon Meringue S'mores, Kettle Corn S'mores, not to mention the Elvis - a bacon, banana, and peanut butter s'more. In 50 playful recipes, photographed in full colour and packaged in a puffy square format reminiscent of the original formation, S'mores! completely redefines what a s'more is - and where it can be made - by designing all recipes to be made in a standard oven (adapted for an outdoor fire). Dan Whalen, who in his last book tackled another singular passion, Tots!, redefines both the filling of the s'more - ice cream, sweet potatoes, cereal, Peeps, Sriracha, figs, avocado, even a scallop (which bears some resemblance to a marshmallow) - and the "cracker" - using phyllo dough, pie crust, potato chips, and cannoli sheets. From the deliciously simple Nutella S'mores to the sophisticated Grilled Peach Basil S'mores, this book emphatically and mouthwateringly puts the more! in s'mores.
Nothing beats delicious artisanal ice cream, and this bite-sized book is full of highly doable recipes that can be made in a home-cook-friendly ice cream machine. The craveable ice creams and frozen yogurts favourites include strawberry, pistachio, and vanilla but also creative combinations like Farmstead Cheese and Guava Jam Ice Cream and Wild Berry Lavender Ice Cream. Mix and match them into sundaes decked with crunchy "gravels" (delicious crumbly toppings), syrups, and more to create an unforgettable sweets experience. From Graham Cracker Ice Cream to Baked Rhubarb Frozen Yogurt to the One Night in Bangkok Sundae, these recipes - adapted from Jeni Britton Bauer's Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams at Home and Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream Desserts - make up a must-have collection of decadent desserts.

Vegetables have never been more popular, with the interest in natural, plant-based food at an all-time high. Meanwhile, the appetite for home baking shows no signs of abating. Food writer Kate Hackworthy, author of the popular site www.veggiedesserts.co.uk, has found a delicious way to combine the two, with this book of scrumptious cakes and desserts packed full of healthy veg. Pushing the boundaries of carrot cake, Kate puts vegetables into cakes, muffins, biscuits, tarts, brownies, pastries and even ice cream. Vegetables bring moisture, natural sweetness and extra nutrients to your baking, with the happy consequence that less refined sugar and fat is required, resulting in great-tasting treats that are also a lot less naughty. With 60 original recipes, including vegan options, virtuous snacks and lighter ways to bake cakes, this book is not about sneaking veggies into recipes, but celebrating them as hero ingredients and making them as much a part of dessert as they are of dinner. Recipes include: Kale and Apple Cake with Apple Icing Butternut Squash Spiced Muffins Black Bean Chocolate Brownies Avocado Key Lime Tarts Turmeric, Carrot and Orange Ice Lollies Cauliflower Chocolate Churros Word count: Approx 25,000
