Description

This is a complete guide to flavor building ideas that bring out the best in baking. Flavor is the very essence of fine baking, the source of wonderful tastes and aromas that tempt the palate and delight the senses. In "Baking by Flavor", Lisa Yockelson shares flavor boosting secrets that can make virtually any recipe burst with new vigor and freshness. This book reveals concepts and techniques for using eighteen basic ingredients including chocolate, vanilla, apricot, and lemon to "pyramid" flavor, layer by delicious layer. Two hundred and sixty carefully selected recipes inspire readers with ideas for animating many "old favorite" recipes that may have become more "old" than "favorite." For example, a dormant pound cake springs to life as the author scents sugar with vanilla, creams butter with vanilla bean scrapings, and beats egg yolks with a double strength vanilla extract ...dark chocolate brownies become richly sensuous as chopped nuts, lightly coated with cocoa powder and confectioner s sugar, are added to a creamy batter. Clearly written, easy to follow instructions make the book a joy to read and use in the kitchen, while 118 photographs give visual expression to techniques and eighteen color plated presentations.
