Summary: Full Fat and Attitude
Comment: First the good: This book ended our quest for the perfect tart dough. The pear/raisin/ginger muffin is fabulous. The cookies are fabulous, no equal - 5 stars.
Now the bad and the ugly: I get that it's frustrating that nimcompoops ask for fat-free baked goods; keep it to yourselves. I have no quibble with the philosophy and practice of cream and butter (I'd probably be drummed out of America's Dairyland if I did). I do quibble with the fact that this is stated again and again and again and again. It begins to feel condescending already! For example, most of us do actually know that a muffin is a kind of cake and that there's half the calories of a scone in a half-scone and that a chocolate macaroon is rich. - minus 1 star

Summary: The Art of the Tart
Comment: Don't miss out on reading the Intro. Here is an inspirational story of the beginnings of two people who fall in love with what they do--tarts.
Here are their tried and true recipes, for which they've made them over and over again. The results are yours for the baking. To do this there are great sections on equipment, technique.
Not only for tarts, but salds, soups and muffins, brownies, cookies, etc.
I'm particularly impressed with "Roasted Eggplant and Tomato Tart with Basil" "Chocolate-Banana Tart" "Black Plum and Honey Tart".
The Summer Berry Scones are knock outs and The Crunchy Dried Cranberry-Chocolate Chip Cookies are killers also.
This will be a fun book for the home gourmet to mess around with and discover new cook with your hands baked goods to eat with the fingers food!
Well done with great reading thorughout, especially with the fun side bars scattered throughout.

Summary: I love this book!
Comment: I saw Frank on Martha Stewart earlier in the summer and right away went to my friends at Amazon and ordered it. This is one of the best books ever. The recipes are great, explained well, really tasty and fun to do. I have tried several and every one was a "do again!" I have given several as gifts and everyone has loved the book as well.
