Book Description
A compilation of sixty-five of the greatest cake recipes from the South, plus plenty of baking tips, from the author of Southern Pies. It’s time to relax on the porch swing and feast your eyes on some of the tastiest cakes you’ll ever sink your fork into. There are recipes here for everything from Brown Sugar Pound Cake and fluffy white coconut cakes layered with lemon curd or raspberry jam to the chocolatey goodness of Mississippi Mud Cake and the extravagant elegance of Lady Baltimore Cake. With cakes this delectable, it’s no wonder Southerners are so proud of their baking history. Jam cakes and jelly rolls; humble pear bread and peanut cake; cakes with one, two, three, and four layers; and even Eudora Welty’s bourbon-soaked white fruitcake—each moist and delicious forkful represents the welcome-to-the-South attitude of the sultry Southern states. The Baking 101 section explains the basics, including buying the proper equipment, mixing the perfect batter, putting on the finishing touches (that means frosting, and lots of it!), and the how-to’s of storing your lovely cake so that the last slice tastes as delightful and moist as the first. As you page through Southern Cakes, you’ll surely come across some old favorites as well as many new delectable treats, plus a generous helping of Southern hospitality in each and every slice. “Food writer Nancie McDermott has compiled 65 of the most sinfully delicious cakes . . . and the result could make even Scarlet O’Hara weak in the knees.” —Chocolatier Magazine “For my money, the grandest-looking cakes in this book are the brown sugar pound cakes baked in a tube pan with a lush mass of caramel glaze drooling down its sides, and the classic coconut cake, with its feathery, dazzling white frosting. When I brought the coconut cake to the office, people in the street were literally lunging at it.” —Los Angeles Times

United States of Pie

Pages : 200

Book Description
A “colorful, varied collection” of regional heirloom recipes that “may well be the definitive resource on the all-American pie” (Publishers Weekly). Before cooking shows and celebrity chefs there were church dinners, community bake sales, and county fairs—events for which regular women made their prized family recipes, especially for that homiest and most American of desserts, pie. In United States of Pie, Adrienne Kane invites you on a journey back in time as she scours the country for—and shares—those recipes: the pies that have come to define culinary traditions from the West Coast to the East Coast, from the Midwest to the South. They showcase the innovative spirit of American home cooks in the era before processed foods and flavorless, imported produce took over grocery shelves, and are tested and updated for contemporary palates with an emphasis on local, seasonal fruit and dairy products. With sweet illustrations, tips ranging from the best thickeners for fruit pies to why home bakers should embrace corn syrup, and insightful essays on pie-making traditions around the country, it’s more than a cookbook—it’s a must-have baking resource. “Culled from farmwife cookbooks, bakeshops, church booklets, and newspapers, the recipes are categorized by region, with chapters for the Northeast, South, Midwest, and West and all of their classics: shoefly, Maine blueberry, Key lime, and strawberry-rhubarb, to name a few. These are interspersed with Kane’s updated versions of unusual, exotic concoctions such as Chipmunk Pie (stuffed with an apple and nut filling), green tomato pie, and burnt sugar meringue pie.” —Publishers Weekly “A charming recipe collection [that] includes the most thorough instructions we’ve seen yet on mastering pie dough.” —Matt Lee and Ted Lee, authors of the James Beard Foundation Cookbook of the Year The Lee Bros.
