Summary
Baking is a craft， one that has been celebrated by King Arthur Baking Company for more than two centuries。 Their Baking School， an essential part of the King Arthur community， is now a book to cherish。 It reflects a curriculum that has been honed and refined over the years， with instructors who are experts not just at baking， but at teaching baking。 The recipes， notes， instructive photographs， and thoughtfully organized chapters here reflect this depth of experience。 From Yeast Breads to Sourdough， Laminated Pastries to Pies and Tarts， Cookies to Cake， readers gain confidence as they play in the kitchen and build new skills。 King Arthur’s unique approach is friendly and accessible to all levels， focusing on the “how” and “why。” So much of the magic of baking is understanding how the ingredients interact， trusting when bread dough is proofed， appreciating how buttercream comes together。 Welcome to Baking School！

I feel like a lot of these recipes are on the King Arthur Flour website in one form or another。 With that said， it was grouped by skill set and had a lot of photos to follow step-by-step。 For me， I love that my local library has this， but I don't need to purchase my own copy。 I can use the website。 I feel like a lot of these recipes are on the King Arthur Flour website in one form or another。 With that said， it was grouped by skill set and had a lot of photos to follow step-by-step。 For me， I love that my local library has this， but I don't need to purchase my own copy。 I can use the website。 。。。more

Designed as a self-tutorial for avid baking students and/or devotees， this book is one of the best designed and clearest instructive cook books I have had the pleasure to read。 I， myself， have limited baking skills （mostly bars & cookies）; however， my husband loves to bake bread and attempt more complicated baking endeavors and also found this book to be stellar。 Good photography enhances the finished and， sometimes， in progress recipes。 Red type attracts the eye to tips in most of the recipes w Designed as a self-tutorial for avid baking students and/or devotees， this book is one of the best designed and clearest instructive cook books I have had the pleasure to read。 I， myself， have limited baking skills （mostly bars & cookies）; however， my husband loves to bake bread and attempt more complicated baking endeavors and also found this book to be stellar。 Good photography enhances the finished and， sometimes， in progress recipes。 Red type attracts the eye to tips in most of the recipes which are exceptionally direct and step-by-step。 Divided by lessons from Yeast Breads （bread porn！！！） to Laminated Pastries to Pies， Cookies， Quick Breads， and Cakes， each chapter ends with a “Master Class” on a recipe that demands some accumulated skills by an array of impressive bakers。 Each chapter addresses what to expect in “The Classroom，” key ingredients， equipment needs， and commonly asked questions。 The Preface material includes King Arthur’s teaching philosophy， ingredient philosophy， how to use the book， and an explanation of what is a “Master Class。” As someone who is more newbie than practiced in the baking art， I especially found the inserts in many chapters on topics like the quality of chocolate to determining freshness of leaveners or Creaming vs。 Whisking worth the read alone。 This will make a great gift for any level of baker…neophytes will have a great beginner’s reference and experts will appreciate the art。 Admirers of Rose Levy Beranbaum， Christina Tosi， or Mary Berry’s cookbooks will truly enjoy。 。。。more
