This is an imaginative and serious baking book which takes inspiration from the sweet and savory baking cultures of many countries.
Author Clarice Lam, whose parents immigrated to the US from Hong Kong, is an experienced professional baker, but her recipe yields are modest enough for home kitchens, though she provides measurements by weight as well as by volume.
Lam’s detailed recipes often include step-by-step photo sequences and include:
-
Gochujang pizza rolls
-
Kabocha squash galette with caramelized onions, chili crisp, and ricotta
-
Pandan-lime meringue pie
-
Matcha shortbread with raspberry ganache
-
Miso-caramel covered marshmallows
Fresh and very interesting.
Hardcover. Color photographs throughout.
