Practical Baking covers the entire field of practical bakery foods production and pastry making, bringing students up to speed on the latest bakery developments, and emphasizing the production of international yeast-raised bakery products and new practices in speed-up production.
Highly recommended as a reference book, rather than a recipe book. This book is a must for bakers or bakers-tobe who want to know more about the technical details of baking. Although it covers pastry, the book is definitely geared towards bread baking from a professional baker's point of view.
