## Description

Buy Patisserie: Mastering the Fundamentals of French Pastry: Mastering the Fundamentals of French Pastry - Updated Edition 1 by Christophe Felder (ISBN: 8601200395532) from desertcart's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders.

Review: a really great book! - I bought this book as quite a beginner to pastry. I'd only made a few quiches and a few pies out of basic short crust pastry. 'Patisserie' has taught me the precision, accuracy and discipline involved in making French pastries. I am growing more confident and getting quicker at making tarts. There are obviously a huge amount of different recipes, set out as lessons, and I started off following every recipe through in order, but now I've diverged from this and enjoy choosing which recipe to follow next. The book isn't necessarily set out basic to advanced through all the lessons, but more divided into sections, which makes more sense (Tartes, Les Cremes etc). There are a lot of photos to go along with the steps in the recipe, and these show the important things like how the texture of something should look so that your pastries turn out right! Some things that might be helpful to know are: - A lot of the recipes contain almonds as in traditional French pastry - A lot of these aren't particularly quick recipes, with tart pastry requiring 2 hours chill time although these things don't bother me! Also, I struggled to find all the correct sized pastry rings the recipes sometimes ask for, but the book gives alternatives such as using a tart pan with a removable bottom instead, the same is given for vanilla essence instead of pods, so it is pretty accommodating! The book contains every thing you could want to eat and make in a Patisserie, from tartes to macarons to croissants and pretty much everything in between... I would recommend this book to anyone wanting to learn 'the Fundamentals of French Pastry', it is a brilliant book, and will keep me busy and happy for a long time!
Review: Fantastic book. - Fantastic book. It's beautifully laid out, easy to understand and full of inspiration. I loved it enough that I've actually bought two, one for me and one for my dad. The first one I bought, for myself, was a little damaged when it arrived but it was only a superficial dent to the cover. The second one was in the pristine condition, so I really have no complaints as I'm sure it was just a fluke. This book is huge and it needs to be because of all the recipes and the perfect amount of detail. Not only does it include complicated recipes, but it really breaks down the components so that you've got a proper understanding of the fundamentals and are then able to go on and create your own recipes. I haven't tried all that many of them yet as I haven't been able to find the time, but I will say that the french meringue is the best I've ever made/tasted. The pictures are excellent and very clear. I'd recommend this book to anyone with even a slight interest in patisserie.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Every single recipe is brilliant!
*by B***S on 4 December 2020*

If you are ever thinking of buying a Patisserie recipe book, being either a professional chef or an amateur, please buy this book. It is utterly brilliant! Every single recipes works, perfectly - and I've tried most! The step-by-step photographs explain everything visually from start to finish. Nothing is left to chance. I have been a patisserie chef for almost 35 years and this book showed to me that I knew nothing. It is now my go to for every single base pastry recipe: pastry, sable, meringue, macaroon, sponge, pastry cream, dacquoise, bavarois, etc. The finishing of each dessert is beautifully simple, precise, yet elegant. It's not cheap, but then in this life you pay for what you get. Honestly, buy this book!
