Savory to Sweet: Pies & Tarts is an irresistible introduction to the lively art of pastry making. The comprehensive introduction includes detailed instructions on mixing and rolling pastry, utilizing ready-made pastry, a guide to baking unfilled pastry shells, and advice on equipment and baking dishes.

The recipes include such classic favorites as Summer Fruit Tartlets, Rosemary Tarte Tatin, and Quiche Lorraine and more unusual dishes, such as Rum and Butterscotch Tart, Chocolate Mousse Tart, and Wild Mushroom and Oregano Baguettes. Many of the recipes include pastry tantalizingly flavored with added ingredients such as herbs, spices, ground nuts, and citrus zest that make the most of the mouth watering fillings.

Baking has never been so simple, so imaginative, or so appetizing.
