About book Flour: Spectacular Recipes From Boston's Flour Bakery + Cafe (2010)
I judge a book on baking not only for the recipes but also for sheer practicality. In other words, are there recipes that can be made with ingredients that I have in the house, that aren't too impossible to find if I need to do some shopping, are a bit of a challenge and are worth making again. In these regards, this book is really a winner. I've made the croissants, the pains aux raisins, the brioche, the hazelnut cookies but the real winner in the book is the tiramisu which everyone loves. Really nothing in this book is terribly difficult. Flour Bakery is my favorite bakery anywhere, and I pounced on this book as soon as it came out. In addition to including recipes for several of my favorite treats, the book is very clearly written and with many useful tips. Of the recipes I've made, the Chunky Lolas, Bittersweet Chocolate Chip Cookies, Apple Snacking Spice Cake, Heart Healthy Dried Fruit Scones, and Lemon Ginger Scones were tip-top favorites, but several recipes have not been made yet for logistical reasons - not that I'm not looking forward to trying them soon!
