Pan y Dulce: The Latin American Baking Book (Pastries, Desserts, Rustic Breads, Savory Baking, and More)

by Bryan Ford

Overview

Taste the beauty, and breadth of baking across Latin America. Star baker Bryan Ford presents the essential baker’s guide to the riches of Latin America, sharing the cultures and stories behind every recipe: artisan bread, pan dulce, cookies, pastries and more!
 
Bryan Ford has changed the way the world sees baking. Breaking free from a Euro-centric approach to the craft, he celebrates the baking traditions of Latin America.

• A simple approach to recipes and technique
• Sharing the depth and nuance of the stories behind each recipe

Taking a completely unique, yet long overdue approach, there is no book like Pan y Dulce on the market. From Pan de Mole to Medialunas, Palmeritas to Pan Frances, and Flan to Arepa Dulce de Maiz, these recipes highlight the beauty and breadth of Latin American baking—from simple cookies and cakes to artisan breads.

This is an essential baking book for every home baker looking to expand their understanding of the history of the craft and explore the sweets and treats, breads and bakes of this region, from Mexico, Central America, South America, and the Caribbean.
