It's been six years since Martha Stewart published her now classic Hors d’Oeuvres Handbook. Not surprisingly the follow-up, Martha Stewart’s Baking Handbook, is worth the wait. Packed with more than 200 baking recipes, this comprehensive manual will excite and instruct bakers of all skill levels. With clear language and straightforward organization, the book is immediately accessible—a hallmark of all Stewart’s publications. Features plenty of tips for the beginning baker and a useful illustrated guide to the most essential baking equipment, plus oodles of great baking ideas, notes on equipment and lots of time-saving techniques. Complete with exquisite color photography, the recipes range from sweet favorites like buttermilk biscuits, gingersnaps and blueberry pie, to more savory temptations such as Sausage and Feta Hand Pies and Cherry Frangipane Galette.
