Welcome to a world of exotic spices and flavorings from the warm embrace of clove and ginger to the fiery touch of peppercorns and chiles, from the sensual kiss of cardamom and rose to the surprising sensations of sumac and za'atar. With encouraging language, invaluable tips, and a passionate approach to flavor, Malika Ameen seeks to push spices beyond the realm of savory to the world of sweet where they can add everything from a delicate whisper to a surprising punch to cakes and tarts, cookies and bars, ice creams and sorbets, barks and brittles, and more. The 78 recipes are arranged by the feelings and sensations they evoke- Spicy and Warm; Floral and Aromatic; Bright and Fresh; Savory, Earthy and Nutty; and Complex and Mysterious. Create showstoppers such as Roasted Peach and Custard Borek for your next culinary gathering; its velvety saffron cream and subtle cardamom sugar are all wrapped inside light, crunchy layers of phyllo dough. Update classics with a new twist such as Lusty Lemon Squares with a spiced dark chocolate crust dotted with pink peppercorns. Kids and the young at heart will delight in the orange zest, vanilla bean, and cinnamon spiced churros with their accompanying sticky toffee sauce. Beautiful full-page images and an invaluable spice glossary help round out an accessible addition to any dessert library. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

The recipes are surprising and refined, and can easily be followed to a delicious outcome, but that is not all of the value inside. The author instructs on how to bake with spices and how spices can bring excitement and sensuality to your food, encouraging you to cook confidently and create new dishes with the assistance of spices.
Also included are an illustrated glossary of spices, food sourcing resources, and explanations of different types of sugars and flours. I really like the information on how to store dishes, and how to prepare recipes ahead to easily obtain the same results as freshly made dishes. Often this extremely helpful information is not present in cookbooks.
The chapter titles are romantic and poetic, and recipes are sorted according to the feelings and sensations that they invoke. In every recipe, she has highlighted one spice, either the star of the dish, or an important supporting spice. Her devotion to spice is reflected passionately in her writing and her recipes. "A spice can tempt with just a whisper," indeed!
I made the Blush Brioche Tart, which is strawberry and rhubarb on mascarpone on brioche, and is as delicious as it sounds. Also, it was surprisingly easy, and the best brioche that I have ever made! Here is a selection of recipes that jumped out and grabbed my imagination, with the chapter in which they appear:
Spicy & Warm
*Angel Food Cake with Raspberry Chipotle Glaze
*Mexican Hot Chocolate Cake
Floral & Aromatic
*Peach Buttermilk Popsicles
*Swirled Cherry Sweet Rolls
*Pomegranate Milk Chocolate Scones
Bright & Fresh
*Lemon Verbena Chiffon Cake
*Fudgy Passionfruit Truffles
Savory, Earthy & Nutty
*Apricot Almond Financiers
*Chewy Chocolate Devils
Complex & Mysterious
*Gingerbread Cream Pear Ribbon Bread
Highly recommended for those who like having fun while cooking, because of the new and adventurous dessert recipes and because I really enjoyed the author's writing.
