Had to share!
I just had to share that a few months ago I bought the cookbook "flour" by Joanne Chang. Um, you know what? Anytime I've made anything from it, I get rave reviews. I know that not everyone on here is a seasoned chef but if you're looking for a great pastry book that's not going to scare you and you're looking to get excellent results, it's totally worth it.

I really like the chocolate chip cookies. I know that sounds simple...but I think that when you've got a simple recipe..to do it to perfection takes real skill.
I also absolutely adore the rosemary shortbread cookies. They sneak up on you. If you're not paying attention, you'll eat the entire batch because the flavor is just so unique!
I just liked the entire layout of the book....she gives basic explanations as to the "why" of things...she doesn't just say "do this." It makes so much sense.
I made her fluffy yellow birthday cake with whipped chocolate ganache butter cream last night and of course it was a hit!
I've been to her Boston bakery. Crazy busy place!
