If you've been staying on top of baking blogs lately, you've probably noticed that quite a few people have been using recipes from Dorie Greenspan's newest book, Baking: From My Home to Yours. Sara, from i like to cook, organized the huge event with the publishers and got out the book to many different people so that readers could get some real-life feed back on the recipes. She also made up a roundup of all the recipes that people tried, so take a look at the recipes she tested herself and at the recipes tested by others for a comprehensive listing (with photos!) of all the treats our food blogging friends enjoyed.
Getting back to the book itself, it is over 500 pages and has more than 200 recipes. Although it is called Baking, it doesn't cover too many yeast breads or completely savory recipes. Instead, it concentrates on sweets, divided into six sections: breakfast sweets, cookies, cakes, pies and tarts, spoon desserts and base recipes. From these categories, you'll find more tempting recipes that you can imagine and but book is filled with excellent pictures that will tempt you. Unfortunately, not every recipe is illustrated, so we're probably missing out on some food porn, but since the recipes turn out to look exactly like the photographs, you can easily make your own food porn at home.
