Chanterelle is a beloved, award-winning New York City
restaurant that has been critically acclaimed since its
founding 25 years ago. A great part of a perfect meal is one
of the truly spectacular--yet comforting--desserts. Kate
Zuckerman, Chanterelle's pastry chef, creates exquisite
treats that draw upon her culinary travels all over the
world and her vast experience as a four-star pastry chef in
Boston, San Francisco, and New York. The Sweet Life
offers not only detailed, delicious recipes for every kind
of dessert from tarts and cakes to custards, soufflés, and
frozen desserts, but also in-depth explanations of methods
and of chemical changes that occur in baking, along with
fascinating histories and descriptions of key ingredients.
Zuckerman possesses the remarkable ability to create
gourmet desserts that home cooks can actually craft in their
own kitchens. Her warm, accessible tone will appeal to both
the beginner and the advanced pastry cook. So whether making
the Crispy, Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies or the Cardamom and
Honey Pistachio Nougat Glacé, readers will know they are in
good, capable hands.
