Great british bake off recipe book
Lovely book with easy to follow instructions and equipment lists There are plenty of photos so you know what the recipe is supposed to look like Cookbooks For me this was AWFUL There were hardly any pictures and all of the ingredients are in grams so not american conversions This book is also not for the novice baker There are pages and pages of ingredients and instructions It made me very annoyed Cookbooks It really does break these incredibly fancy and specific recipes down into the simplest steps possible which is nice I just don t think I ll ever use it unless HRM and Princess Kate come to call Cookbooks Not for the faint hearted This professional spin off of the popular Great British Bake Off gives an insight into the world of professional pastry chefs and patisserie in general I should admit and warn from the beginning this review will be anything but objective I love baking I love eating sweet things it s what after 9 years in an office made me quit my job and pursue my dream of becoming a chef A dream which became my reality through sweat tears but most of all hard work I can now proudly call myself a professional pastry chef but back to the book I absolutely love it Not only it s beautifully published on a high quality paper and with stunning photos but the content is of the highest quality too If you happen to watch the first season of the programme you ll see few recipes from it but the book is mainly full of the classics layered delices petit gateaux various tarts bakery brioche croissants patisserie dacquaise mille feuille puff pastry and classic puddings like trifle black forest or sticky toffee pudding Recipes even if quite lengthy and with many different steps and techniques are clear and easy to follow most of them have accompanied photos explaining key steps within each dessert In regards to the level of difficulty it s rather hard for me to judge The recipes might seem daunting for a home baker but I d say give it a go If you ve baked before and have some basic knowledge you should succeed My advice read the list of ingredients AND the recipe till the very end before you even take that bowl and spoon out of your cupboard Some of the desserts require preparing some parts of it in advance or need to be chilled for certain amount of time before full assembly is possible either way prepare yourself accordingly. The great british bake off big book of baking This monster of a cookbook will be an ideal present for a pastry chef as well as an aspiring home baker amateur patissier It s a brilliant source of classic recipes new ideas sometimes unusual flavour combinations but most of all baking showstoppers It s a cookbook that I ve already been using good few times both at home and at work all those times with a success Cookbooks
