Free (Kindle) Baking Basics and Beyond [Specialty Technique Cookbook]

ATDrake · 12-15-2014, 04:01 AM

Baking Basics and Beyond: Learn These Simple Techniques and Bake Like a Pro by Pat Sinclair is a newbie-friendly guide to Exactly What It Says In The Title, free courtesy of publisher Agate's Surrey imprint.

This has previously been offered free in 2012.

Currently free, probably just until the weekend @ Amazon (not available to Canadians). Will likely also show up as a DRM-free PDF download available worldwide directly @ the publisher's webstore, in another day or so.

ETA: now also free @ B&N (may also drop in the UK), Amazon UK, iTunes (not available to Canadians), and possibly Google Play for the US.

Description
With the demise of home economics in the school system, many adults have no baking experience at all, relying on dreary store-bought baked goods and artificial mixes to satisfy their cravings. Baking Basics and Beyond allows even absolute novices to prepare a wide array of delicious, healthy breads, cakes, cookies, pies, and more.

In a warm, reassuring manner, Pat Sinclair leads beginning bakers step-by-step through each recipe, thoroughly explaining each technique and direction. After learning a basic technique, additional recipes provide further practice and more elaborate results. This second edition contains more than 100 recipes, from old favorites like icebox cookies, cornbread, and brownies to updated classics, including Butterscotch Cashew Blondies, Chai Latte Custards, and Savory Wild Mushroom Bread Pudding.

Throughout, explanations and precise tips, based on Sinclair's years of baking experience, make readers feel as though there is a friendly teacher in the kitchen, peering over their shoulders, and guiding them toward perfect results, every time.

This new edition of this basic, down-to-earth, reader-friendly baking guide is updated with beautiful full color photos throughout.
