Dikla Levy Frances, creator of One Sarcastic Baker, has the answer for every baker whose cake deflates, whose cupcakes are too dense or whose cookies come out dry and overbaked instead of chewy--and they don't know why. Baking is essentially chemistry in the kitchen, and Dikla removes the mystery of that chemistry with her easy-to-understand breakdown of how baking works: what purpose each ingredient serves in a recipe, how they combine and interact together and most importantly, how to use the correct temperature and ingredients to get incredible results, every time. She pairs this instruction with easy to follow recipes that readers will use to take their baking to the next level. Learn how to use butter to create a perfectly fluffy and tender cake texture with Almond Chocolate Pound Cake, and create the perfect pie and pie crust with a Rustic Savory Galette. Readers will even learn the best temperature to use to tackle notoriously-tricky treats with her Pistachio Orange Blossom Madeleines. With these 50 recipes, you don't have to be a scientist to understand how to craft the perfect baked good. Review: Beautiful and Informative - The chapters/sections are simple, informative and easy to understand with plenty of examples to further explain how everything works together. I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in learning about the 'why' behind how recipes work! Review: Love it - I am learning so much and I've been baking for years. Parcel arrived in time and in good condition. Delighted

Fluffy on the outside…
Great book and the author clearly knows her stuff. I love how the book grabbed me in and gave me the enthusiasm to bake again. Some great recipes but the details on ingredients really made me feel like a fluffy bake cake

my first baking science book!
i have got many bakery books and i love this one explains the logic / magic behind the baking. umm… but m expecting more detailed science and perhaps wider coverage on each subject, in depth too. any recommendation to get one?

It's just a recipe book
Misleading to say the least

Basic baking science explained
If you are a beginner and you'd like to understand the basic science behind baking, this book is a great choice to start with. It doesn't go too nerdy into the depth of all the processes (but deep enough), and gives you a basic understanding. Each chapter has a theoretical part followed by recipes to test what you have learned. (recipes seem to be revised and correct). I am really glad i bought it, it's very informative!

muito bom
é um livro bem interessante, a parte teórica vem junto com uma receita (pra, acredito eu, fazer o conhecimento se fixar mais). quase todos os preparos possuem foto. a única coisa que não curto é a capa comum, mas quando comprei já sabia que era assim então é um problema só meu. mas é um livro bem legal.

Tolles Buch für den Einstieg in das Thema "Bakings Science" mit guten Rezepten
Das Buch war (m)ein idealer Einstieg in das Thema "Baking Science". Ich wollte mehr über die Wissenschaft und die Prozesse beim Backen erfahren. Die Autorin erklärt die Prozesse sehr gut und "einfach". Die Rezepte sind auch interessant, sodass ich schon mehreres nachgebacken habe.
