Professional Reviews

New York Times: "Ms. Beranbaum may be the most meticulous cook who ever lived. To her, baking is not a free-form, spiritual act. It is about building rocket ships. Quantities are weighed to the hundredth of an ounce, temperatures set to the degree, sizes measured to the quarter inch. But what separates her from other perfectionists is that she not only tells you in intricate detail how to make something, but also tells why you take such pains....It is this kind of detail...that elevates this book above most others on baking....When I want to make a classic pastry and I want it to be nothing less than perfect, I will know the one place to go."
