But I decided to be cautious before pre-ordering Flour, Too. So I made the recipes that were available on "search inside this book." These were the available recipes: Classic Apple Turnover, Cinnamon-Creme Brioche, Vegan Vanilla-Mixed Berry Muffins, Brown Sugar-Oat Cherry Muffins, Twice-Baked Brioche, Fabulous French Toast, Decadent Sunday Waffles, CJS Spiced Banana Pancakes, Steel-Cut Oats, and Denise's Dutch Baby. Made all the recipes except for the Vegan Muffins and Twice-Baked Brioche. Here were the results.1. The waffles are decadent and have become the favorite in my household, beating out N. Silverton's sourdough waffles, D. Greenspan's waffles, and the old but reliable I. Rombauer waffles.2. Denise's Dutch Baby is excellent. It is more sophisticated than A. Thomas's German Apple pancake. Would make a good dessert.3. The French Toast is fabulous but you must remember to start the night before.4. The cherry muffins turned out wonderful, even with substituting the all-purpose flour for the whole wheat flour. I would make them again, but substitute chopped dates for the cherries next time, just for something different.5. The banana pancakes are fine but prefer plain pancakes using M. Cunningham's recipe in The Breakfast Book (and also repeated in P. Reinhardt's Crust and Crumb.)6. Steel-cut oats are delicious. I have made plain steel-cut oats for years. But based on inspiration from her recipe, I incorporate cinnamon and nutmeg to the milk, water, brown sugar, and salt and bring to boil before adding the oats and cook for about 15-20 minutes. The spices add a warmth to the cereal. And whenever I have pears, usually Dánjou, I cook them as stated in the recipe. They are a delicious addition.7. The apple turnovers are superb. Just a note, I did not use J. Chang's puff pastry recipes because I already had some puff pastry from an N. Silverton recipe. Either way, definitely try. (N. Silverton's apple turnovers are, also, excellent. Better yet try the Lemon Turnovers in her book Pastries From the La Brea Bakery but use J. Chang's Lemon Curd. Delicious.)8. The Cinnamon-Creme Brioche was sublime. Heavenly may be the way to describe these treats. J. Chang's brioche recipe is my favorite and most reliable brioche. All her recipes using her brioche dough are wonderful, and I even use it when other cookbooks call for brioche, e.g. C. Hitz's Lemon Brioche Doughnuts (a must try, along with his Gibassier).My one complaint about the cookbook would be that liquid measurements were given only by volume, both U.S. and metric, and not by weight. For those of us who cook by weight, we must do the conversions.When reviewing the Vegan Vanilla-Mixed Berry Muffins recipe, I noticed either the volume or weight for the flour seems to be incorrect, or at least not consistent with the flour conversions in the other recipes. The cookbook Flour did not have this problem. Hopefully, this is the only recipe in Flour, Too with this discrepancy. (10 June 2013 NOTE: This discrepancy has been corrected for both the book and search inside. Must have caught it before the printing. Good editing!)I would have liked to try some savory recipes but unfortunately none was available.And again, whatever you do, make the Cinnamon-Creme Brioche.PS: Disclaimer: I have never been to any of J. Changs bakeries or restaurant.6 June 2013Received cookbook today. Had a chance to look it over but not to cook from it.Layout is basically the same as her first cookbook, flour, with one important exception: the ingredient list is easier to read because the typeface is bold, not normal weight. I still wish for black ink instead of gray ink. Quality printing. Well bound, sewn binding. Professional photos. Just like Flour, the directions are clear and concise and the stories are a nice short read. Well written and thought out.Reviewed the brioche, pastry cream, and lemon curd recipes, listed in the Basics chapter. Exactly or nearly the same as before, which is good, because they are excellent recipes.Kosher salt is used in both cookbooks. In her first cookbook, she notes under the ingredients chapter that "You can use table salt if you don't have kosher salt, but only use about half the amount called for." I did not see this very important note in flour, too.10 June 2013Tried two savory dishes with two positive outcomes.The first savory dish was Christopher's Oven-Baked Potato And Red Pepper Tortilla, aka frittata. Having crisp potatoes cooked with smoked paprika is a nice variation. Would recommend serving it with a green sauce such as the one that accompanies the Summer Squash Frittata in D. Madison's The Greens Cook Book. The Tortilla would be an excellent meal for guests, because it can be made ahead of time and is just as good cold as hot.The second savory dish was Vegan Carrot And Ginger soup. I like carrots but have not found a good carrot soup. Until today. The soup is hearty and delicious. Roasting carrots did make the them sweeter. Thanks J. Chang. And thanks for the tip on freezing ginger.And of course, tried one sweet recipe. Decided to make the Maple-Apple Upside-Down Buttermilk Cake because it was straightforward and could be eaten about 1 hour after it was baked. Another winner. J. Chang recommends to eat this cake warm. Actually, we thought it was even better the next day.Highly recommend26 of 27 people found the following review helpful.An even better cookbook than the firstBy Mary OwensI have Joanne Chang's first Flour cookbook, and live three blocks away from her first bakery -- she now has four of them scattered around Boston/Cambridge. I am 'currently reading' this second one, but have already determined that this will be a go-to cookbook that gets heavy use.The first cookbook, I am quite sure, has made me a better baker. Her directions are clear, the recipes really work, and she demystifies a lot of processes and techniques. But this one is even better: it also has FOOD!! Not just baked goods. Luscious salads, soups, sandwiches and some main courses (not a ton, but the ones I see look very good). I have already made the white gazpacho and cannot wait to make more of the delicious-sounding soups as winter approaches, and the salads look absolutely terrific. (I am about to look for 'nigella seeds' -- something I never heard of before, because two of the salad recipes call for them.) Another plus to this cookbook, besides spelling out techniques, is that she includes a series of foundation recipes at the back -- soup stocks, the focaccia dough that creates the bread for all her sublime sandwiches, for example, and the roasted plum tomatoes that make her BLTs a standout even in the dead of winter.Many of the recipes from the first Flour cookbook are in heavy rotation at my house. Every cookie recipe is excellent, and the almond macaroons with ganache filling are made probably every 1-2 weeks because my friends LOVE them. In this sequel cookbook she gives the recipe for the fancier macarons -- the kind sold by French luxury patisseries like Payard and Laduree -- so I'll have to try those too.I can definitely recommend both Flour cookbooks, and if you're in Boston, go visit any of her Flour cafes, or Myers+Chang, her low-key Asian restaurant. Even though I love to cook, I go to Flour because the atmosphere is just plain happy. And that is reflected in Chang's writing -- she has found what she loves to do.5 of 5 people found the following review helpful.Happily working my way through all her recipesBy meisumI've never had the opportunity to visit the Flour bakery in Boston, but after reading this cookbook I have a sudden aching desire to visit the East Coast. This is one of those cookbooks that is such a pleasure to read from cover to cover. I enjoy her prose - it's friendly and approachable, and completely devoid of any self-importance (which would even be understandable given the rock-star status of her restaurants). It makes you believe you can bake and cook anything within its covers. I sincerely want to make 97% of her recipes. A batch of her brioche dough is currently resting in my fridge, and if the gorgeous silkiness of the dough is any indicator or how the baked product will be, I'm hooked! Here are my thoughts on everything else I've made so far:- Decadent Sunday Waffles - one of my new favorites. Crispy outside, chewy inside, more substantial than the overnight yeasted waffles with a light enough texture to make you want seconds. Or thirds.- Brown sugar-oat cherry muffins - Amazing the first day, like bricks the second day unless reheated. This is pure, whole-grain health food and tastes great to boot. I did require a glass of milk to help these muffins go down, but that's by no means a complaint!- Spiced banana pancakes - Got mixed love/hate reviews in my family. I'm used to the mashed-type banana pancakes, so the whole sliced banana pieces were off-putting to me, but my husband and kids loved them. The spices made it interesting and different, though I personally thought it was too heavy on the allspice.- Spicy three-bean and corn chili - Before I added a ton more salt, I thought this chili was waaaaaay too tart and funky. Once I adjusted the amount of salt to way more than what was recommended, the rest of the funkiness somehow mellowed and came together into a lovely unique vegetarian chili that my whole family gobbled up.Basically, as I was just flipping through the book to remember which recipes I'd made, I found myself wanting to cook ALL the things again. I can't wait until summer so I can make some of the delightful-looking salads. Get this book - you won't regret it!UPDATE 3/25/15:* The brioche turned out AMAZING! I baked half a batch into loaves (they rise a TON and I ended up with a 9x5 loaf and a mini-loaf but could have easily gotten two mini-loaves plus the 9x5 out of it) and froze the other half batch. A few weeks later I pulled it out and made her breakfast pizzas.* Breakfast pizzas - These were quite tasty, though I don't think I would use brioche dough to make them again - seemed like a waste of perfectly good brioche where the strong flavors of bacon, caramelized onions and cheese completely overpowered the delicate, buttery flavor of the brioche. I would definitely make the breakfast pizzas again, but with regular pizza dough.* Focaccia dough - I baked half a batch into a plain loaf as directed, though I overbaked the loaf (it was in a friend's oven and I wasn't there to keep an eye on it), so it turned out a little crispier than it should have been, but the flavor was still amazing - the whole family even kept going back for stale slices the next day!* Hot pockets - the other half of focaccia dough became her hot pockets with black forest ham and Vermont cheddar cheese. The kids were amazed at how good these were - we all were! Soft, chewy focaccia encasing pleasantly sharp cheddar and ham made for some truly luxurious comfort food. Definitely put a sheet of parchment or foil under them because some of the cheese will ooze out no matter how tightly you pinch those edges.I'm still regularly looking for excuses to cook/bake out of this book and can't wait to try her more savory offerings. This book has definitely earned its place on my shelf!See all 113 customer reviews...
