Breads, cakes, cookies, pies, custards, ice creams: the popular host of Good Eats explores the science behind our favorite sweets and savories, explaining it all in his own inimitable style. The book is divided into chapters by mixing method, such as biscuit, creaming, muffin, straight dough, modified dough, and eggfoam. Each gives the master mixing technique, which serves as a ready reference for the recipes that follow. More than 80 recipes cover all the basics, from pie crust to funnel cake to homemade Pop Tarts to cheese soufflé.
