Alice Medrich: Flavor Flours
In this groundbreaking new work, beloved dessert queen Alice Medrich applies her baking precision and impeccable palate to flavor flours, a term she coined for flours that don't simply add starch and structure to baked goods (as is the case with wheat flour), but also add an extra dimension of flavor. Brownies made with rice flour, for example, taste more chocolatey, and cheesecake derives more depth when made with a chestnut flour crust. The 125 (gluten-free!) recipes elevate classic desserts to new heights. Think Caramel Apple Upside-Down Cake, Coconut Key Lime Tart, and Nutella Sandwich Cookies. Winner of multiple James Beard Foundation and IACP cookbook awards, Medrich is known as the "queen of chocolate" in part for introducing chocolate truffles to America. "Each page tempts with a delicious, new discovery." David Lebovitz, author of My Paris Kitchen
