I received Baking with Dorie as part of a NetGalley giveaway。In Baking with Dorie， Dorie Greenspan offers an array of desserts from cookie and pastries to pies and cakes。 For a James Beard Award winner， you might expect the recipes to be high-concept， but for the most part they're very accessible for the intermediate chef。 There's a nice range of options， from lighter summer fare to heavier， richer options for the colder months。 The presentation is lovely--each photograph is more enticing than t I received Baking with Dorie as part of a NetGalley giveaway。In Baking with Dorie， Dorie Greenspan offers an array of desserts from cookie and pastries to pies and cakes。 For a James Beard Award winner， you might expect the recipes to be high-concept， but for the most part they're very accessible for the intermediate chef。 There's a nice range of options， from lighter summer fare to heavier， richer options for the colder months。 The presentation is lovely--each photograph is more enticing than the next--and will appeal to anyone looking to level up their baking skills at any time of year。 。。。more

Dorie Greenspan is a legend for a reason - this book is a great reminder of why。 This is her 14th book and a celebration of 30 years of writing cookbooks - wow！ You would think that would mean that the content would be repetitive but Dorie continues to surprise and delight。 This book is all about simple， accessible， and foolproof recipes for home bakers of every level。 Right off the bat， the cover boasting "sweet， salty， & simple" recipes piques my interest - salty + baking is something I aways Dorie Greenspan is a legend for a reason - this book is a great reminder of why。 This is her 14th book and a celebration of 30 years of writing cookbooks - wow！ You would think that would mean that the content would be repetitive but Dorie continues to surprise and delight。 This book is all about simple， accessible， and foolproof recipes for home bakers of every level。 Right off the bat， the cover boasting "sweet， salty， & simple" recipes piques my interest - salty + baking is something I aways want more of and Dorie delivers。 The sections are broken up as follows: Breakfast， Cake， Cookies， Two Perfect Little Pastries （Cream Puffs and Meringues）， Pies Tarts Cobblers and Crisps， Salty Side Up， and Basics Must-Knows and Fillips。 Each one contains recipes that are classics， new takes on classics， and a little bit surprising - the perfect balance！ The experience and insight within these pages is invaluable - Dorie has seen it all and she has an answer for you。 This book is perfect for new bakers， people who are dipping their toe into baking， or people who already love to bake。 There is truly something for everyone！The photography is stunning and every photo tempts me into adding the recipe to my to bake list。 As with any book， I wish there were photos for every recipe， but this book does a great job of providing a photo for every recipe that is off the beaten path。 Some standout recipes include: Cheese-Swirl Babka Buns， S'Mores Ice Cream Cake （！！）， Devil's Thumbprints， Rugelach with Four Fillings （i'm personally interested in experimenting with this）， Park Avenue Brownies， Mulled-Butter Apple Pie， Vegetable Ribbon Tart， and Tomato Tart。 This book is a necessary addition to any cookbook library！ 。。。more

BAKING WITH DORIE by Dorie GreenspanWe love food at our house and Dorie is just the person to help you find a wonderfully tasty and eye-pleasing recipe to create for your family。 She not only gives you a color photo of each culinary delight， but she also has handy tips and helpful hints so you can make the best recipe ever。Highly recommend。I am delighted to have received a complimentary copy of #bakingwithdorie from #netgalley I was under no obligation to post a review。

Dorie Greenspan's latest cookbook， Baking with Dorie， will become a go-to baking cookbook for years to come。 It is filled with beautiful images， great descriptions， and helpful photos to use as guides。 My favourite section was the breakfast section。 There is something about a suite of recipes to make your morning a little bit brighter。 I also enjoyed seeing deserts from around the world。 I can't wait to get my hands on this cookbook。This review is based on NetGalley ARC provided in exchange for Dorie Greenspan's latest cookbook， Baking with Dorie， will become a go-to baking cookbook for years to come。 It is filled with beautiful images， great descriptions， and helpful photos to use as guides。 My favourite section was the breakfast section。 There is something about a suite of recipes to make your morning a little bit brighter。 I also enjoyed seeing deserts from around the world。 I can't wait to get my hands on this cookbook。This review is based on NetGalley ARC provided in exchange for an honest， unbiased opinion。 。。。more

Baking with Dorie - Sweet， Salty & Simple is just as delicious as all of Dorie Greenspan's books！ The photos are drool-worthy and Dorie's advice is like having the kind support of your mom melded with a professional baker in the kitchen with you。 My other Dorie cookbooks are stained and splattered—which is the best compliment， in my opinion。 This one will surely end up just as battered with so many options for breakfast， dinners and desserts。 Dorie's smart basics will help any level of baker and Baking with Dorie - Sweet， Salty & Simple is just as delicious as all of Dorie Greenspan's books！ The photos are drool-worthy and Dorie's advice is like having the kind support of your mom melded with a professional baker in the kitchen with you。 My other Dorie cookbooks are stained and splattered—which is the best compliment， in my opinion。 This one will surely end up just as battered with so many options for breakfast， dinners and desserts。 Dorie's smart basics will help any level of baker and the short but interesting intros to each recipe are helpful inspiring an idea for a whole meal around it。 Recipes have very helpful planning notes with timing， so you don't accidentally dive into a recipe without the time you need to complete it。 I especially like the "playing around" notes from all of her cookbooks that allow the home baker to feel comfortable riffing on flavors and ingredients。 I'm looking forward to diving in to Crumb-Topped Ricotta Coffee Cake， Szarlotka （a Polish apple cake/crumble/torte combo）， French Riviera Lemon Tart and all of the savories。。。blue cheese and fig bites， tomato tarts and cheese puffers。 Dorie tells stories along the way， sharing her wealth of travels across the world and the treats that inspired these recipes。 #BakingwithDorie #NetGalley 。。。more

Baking with Dorie is scrumptious！ Clearly written recipes for classic， everyday baked goods like cinnamon-raisin bread and chocolate eclairs are interspersed with more unique offerings， like iced honey-apple scones with spelt and "little marvels" （small meringue cakes with whipped cream and a layer of yummy spread， rolled in an outer coating）。 This is a cookbook to thumb through for inspiration or to turn to for regular favorites。 The design of the book and photographs are inviting and the text Baking with Dorie is scrumptious！ Clearly written recipes for classic， everyday baked goods like cinnamon-raisin bread and chocolate eclairs are interspersed with more unique offerings， like iced honey-apple scones with spelt and "little marvels" （small meringue cakes with whipped cream and a layer of yummy spread， rolled in an outer coating）。 This is a cookbook to thumb through for inspiration or to turn to for regular favorites。 The design of the book and photographs are inviting and the text is pleasing without being chatty。 I'll be buying this one， for sure！Advance Reader Copy provided by the Publisher: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review。 publication date: October 19， 2021。 。。。more

I love a cookbook that reads like a novel， has beautiful pictures of each recipe， and teaches you something about cooking or baking that you didn’t know before。 Dorie Greenspan’s newest cookbook Baking with Dorie: Sweet， Salty & Simple does those very things！ I much appreciated that Dorie gave measurements with traditional measuring cups and also with grams， which is much more accurate。 I liked that many of these look like traditional recipes， but they have a surprise ingredient， flavor combinat I love a cookbook that reads like a novel， has beautiful pictures of each recipe， and teaches you something about cooking or baking that you didn’t know before。 Dorie Greenspan’s newest cookbook Baking with Dorie: Sweet， Salty & Simple does those very things！ I much appreciated that Dorie gave measurements with traditional measuring cups and also with grams， which is much more accurate。 I liked that many of these look like traditional recipes， but they have a surprise ingredient， flavor combination or additional ways you can “play with” the recipe。 I loved that she put her “pet” recipes in this cookbook， which she calls her Sweetheart recipes。 Each chapter/collection of recipes has its own table of contents， where Dorie brings your attention to her Sweetheart recipes， denoting these with a red heart in front of their names。 There are so many recipes that I am looking forward to making， but I must admit that the cake collection will probably be my starting point。 Now to decide between the S’mores Ice Cream Cake， the Lemon Merengue Layer Cake or the Lisbon Chocolate Cake， that graces the cover。 Thank you to NetGalley and Houghton Mifflin Harcourt for this digital ARC in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

This is an excellent cookbook for those who really want to bake well。 It's filled with beautiful photos and a really diverse bunch of recipes for cakes， pastries， cookies， breads， etc。 This is for folks who want to bake the best possible versions of things， not the cheapest， healthiest or simplest。 It does not provide nutritional information。 It also is not going to work well for people who don't eat the traditional American/British diets as it is very heavy on white flour， butter， sugar， etc。 F This is an excellent cookbook for those who really want to bake well。 It's filled with beautiful photos and a really diverse bunch of recipes for cakes， pastries， cookies， breads， etc。 This is for folks who want to bake the best possible versions of things， not the cheapest， healthiest or simplest。 It does not provide nutritional information。 It also is not going to work well for people who don't eat the traditional American/British diets as it is very heavy on white flour， butter， sugar， etc。 For those who are old school and want to learn some wonderful new recipes， it will be a wonderful resource。I read a temporary digital ARC of this book for review。 。。。more

I really enjoyed this cookbook。 The photography is beautiful and Greenspan is a good writer。 Her recipes read long， but that's because she really takes the time to talK the reader through each step。 She explains how things should look each step of the way， and how to tell if you've run into a problem。 She describes the processes very thoroughly， and gives a good idea of the time frame needed to complete the steps。 This is very helpful。 The recipes are varied， some fairly traditional and some dif I really enjoyed this cookbook。 The photography is beautiful and Greenspan is a good writer。 Her recipes read long， but that's because she really takes the time to talK the reader through each step。 She explains how things should look each step of the way， and how to tell if you've run into a problem。 She describes the processes very thoroughly， and gives a good idea of the time frame needed to complete the steps。 This is very helpful。 The recipes are varied， some fairly traditional and some different and unusual。 The main criticism I have is that the cover claims the recipes are "simple。" This， I believe， is somewhat misleading。 There may be some recipes in here suited for beginning bakers， perhaps。。。 but the vast bulk of them are better for experienced bakers looking to stretch their skills。 Included is a chapter on breakfast baking， which has recipes for breads and muffins as well as treats like Crumb-topped Ricotta Coffee Cake。 There is also a chapter on savory baked foods， which was one of my favorites。 This included things like Asparagus-lemon Quiche， Tomato Tart， and Goat Cheese and Black Pepper Quick Bread。 There were also chapters on cakes， pies and cookies， among other things。 The cookie chapter was the weakest chapter， in my opinion。 Some of the recipes seemed overly fussy and not as appealing as the rest of the book。 The final chapter included a whole host of helpful recipes for things like crusts， doughs， fillings， sauces and ice creams。 This was a great addition。 Overall， a very pleasing， interesting and useful baking book。 I would definitely recommend。Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC。 。。。more

#BakingWithDorie is another must-have for the baking library。 So many great recipes， from classics you can whip up with the kids to a bit more involved and exotic。 Some are a bit fussy and would take some shopping and advanced prep to pull off。 This is a book you could spend a year baking your way through。 The photos and food styling is gorgeous and so tempting。 The recipes seem clear and well written。 I was able to give the pecan cranberry loaf a go already， and it turned out delicious。Thank yo #BakingWithDorie is another must-have for the baking library。 So many great recipes， from classics you can whip up with the kids to a bit more involved and exotic。 Some are a bit fussy and would take some shopping and advanced prep to pull off。 This is a book you could spend a year baking your way through。 The photos and food styling is gorgeous and so tempting。 The recipes seem clear and well written。 I was able to give the pecan cranberry loaf a go already， and it turned out delicious。Thank you to #NetGalley， the publisher， and Dorie Greenspan for providing me with an advanced copy of this in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

Dorie does it again！ A beautifully creative book providing great recipes with additional treats such as a chapter of delicious crust recipes ！ Follow her lovely recipes or go off on your own using her playing around suggestions 。 I felt like Dorie was right beside me guiding me through every step。 Her writing style is very conversational and offers even a novice baker the invitation to try something new。 Thank you #NetGalley and #BakingwithDorie for providing this ARC。
