Produktbeschreibung

Will This Make You Happy is an ode to the wild pleasures of transformation . . . I gulped it down, eager for every last crumb.Leslie Jamison, bestselling author of Make it Scream, Make it Burn Beautifulsmart, funny and effortlessly lyrical. Ruby Tandoh, bestselling author of Cook As You Are This is an entirely different kind of cookbook, one that makes you want to curl up and read cover to cover. I loved it.Sohla El-Waylly, James Beard Award winner and author of the bestselling cookbook Start Here For fans of Nora Ephron and Nigel Slater, this hybrid memoir and cookbook brings together over fifty inventive baking recipes with a lyrical coming-of-age story about desire and dessert. Perfect for home cooks, lovers of literature, and anyone who finds comfort in the kitchen. Tanya Bush is adrift in the uncertainty of her early twentiesunemployed, uninspired, and stuck in a long-term relationship that's lost its spark. One day, just to do something, she decides to bake a cake. It's gooey in the center, woefully underbaked, an absolute disasterbut it also reminds her of the pleasures of baking: sugar crystals under her fingernails, flour in her hair, and the hard-earned satisfaction of following the steps of a recipe to the end. Over the course of a year, Tanya embarks on a journey that carries her from her tiny apartment to the sunlit kitchens of an Italian agriturismo to the basement of a bustling Brooklyn bakery, where she rediscovers her appetite for pleasure, indulgence, and meaningful work. A culinary memoir and love story, interwoven with over fifty innovative and approachable baking recipes, Will This Make You Happy is for readers and bakers looking for something messier, more experimental, and honest than the typical aspirational cookbook.

It's meant to be devoured curled up on the couch or with the mixer whirring in the kitchen. FLEXIBLE RECIPES: The recipes in the book are designed to be mixed, matched, and adapted to the season. Whether you're a new baker or an improvisational one, Will This Make You Happy encourages play and experimentation.
