Description:

From the award-winning team who brought you Hot, Sour, Salty, Sweet comes the iconic recipes, rich anecdotes, and insightful photographs that celebrate home baking traditions from around the world.


For their new book, the authors traveled tens of thousands of miles, to six continents, in search of everyday gems like Taipei Coconut Buns, Welsh Cakes, Moroccan Biscotti, and Tibetan Overnight Skillet Breads.


All the while they tested, tasted, interpreted, and recorded the stories behind them, capturing the moments in photography and prose. Then they brought them all back home and put them side by side with Naomi's grandmother's treacle tart, the cinnamon buns Jeffrey grew up with, an many more such treasures. The result is a collection of more than 200 recipes that resonate with the joys and tastes of the everyday around the globe.

The book has some interesting recipes, but it definitely is not something you want to get if you are trying to learn to make bread for the first time. I'm hoping it will be more valuable once I get more practice in breadmaking

I've read so much by and about Alford and Duguid that I was anxious to try out this book. Worth every cent! Not only do they introduce you to recipes but it is also a little travelogue around the world. My favourite recipe from this book is the cranberry-chocolate sweet buns which was easy to make as their directions are very explicit. A nice additon to a baker's (or any cook's) collection as every level of baker will find this useable.
