Book Reviews of The Pastry Chef's Companion: A Comprehensive Resource Guide for the Baking and Pastry Professional
Book Review: LOVE IT
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a spectacular book. It's got tons of definitions in it, flavor combinations, and a temperature guide that every pastry chef should know. I used it in school to define almost every work that we had for my baking classes. I have found that it could be added to--like, maybe an updated edition with even more definitions and flavor charts, but the book is excellent. Definitely a must have.
