Book Reviews of Pastry: Savory and Sweet

Book Review: Comprehensive pastry book with great organization
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a really wonderful book. Michel Roux is a legend, of course, and in this book he is so generous with his knowledge of pastry. I love the organization. he shows you in step-by-step photos how to make just about every pastry imaginable, from tart dough and pie dough (a few different kinds of each, to croissant dough, brioche dough, pizza dough and puff pastry (I personally would rather buy this...takes too long to make). Then after showing you the technique for a specific dough type, you get recipe after recipe of delicious looking dishes, sweet and savory alike. And the photography is plentiful and gorgeous. If there isn't a picture of every recipe, then just about. I can't wait to start cooking from this book.
