Simple Baking Recipes for Every Mood

A Good Day to Bake

"Whether you are an experimental baker or someone who likes to play it safe, you will find something to please you in this elegant book. Ebuehi&#39;s recipes always seem to work &mdash; no easy feat in a baking book." &ndash; Bee Wilson, The TimesA Good Day to Bake is full of 70 sweet and savoury baking recipes for any day of the week, led by flavour. Going through the ritual of bringing out the measuring scales, pouring out flour, whipping up the eggs, stirring the batter and impatiently slicing up warm cake is a beautiful thing that deserves to be enjoyed all year round no matter the day, season or occasion. This is a cookbook that embraces simplicity, mindfulness and the therapeutic comforts of baking. The Great British Bake Off&#39;s 2016 contestant Benjamina writes so warmly about cakes and her recipes speak to a natural, seasonal and down-to-earth way of baking. Chapters include Herbs &amp; Tea, Stone Fruit &amp; Berries, Vegetables, Best of Beige, Spice Cupboard, and Chocolate. Because every day is a good day to bake.

A mixture of modernised classics (think malted brown butter pound cake), rewarding projects and tempting savouries make this a collection to excite bakers at any level.

Channeling the therapeutic qualities behind the ritual of baking, A Good Day to Bake reminds its reader of the little joys of readying a workspace to create everyday goodies.

If you&rsquo;re the person who volunteers to bring dessert to every dinner party, you really need the latest book from the endlessly creative author of The New Way to Cake and A Good Day to Bake. The desserts are meant to be cozy and fun&mdash;more casual than cheffy&mdash;and we&rsquo;re excited to bake every one of them.

There are recipes for just about everyone, from those who have never wielded an offset spatula to those who think nothing of assembling a layer cake, and Ebuehi is a thoughtful, self-aware guide to it all... She knows of what she speaks when she writes, &ldquo;the person bringing dessert has much to consider.&rdquo; Thanks to her, that person now has a book&rsquo;s worth of beautiful options to consider, too.
