Summary: It's a Matter of Taste
Review: Glancing through the table of contents, I was fascinated with Francesca Dipaolo highly creative and unique recipes (e.g., carrot-cream cheese muffins, chive and black pepper cornmeal muffins, sour cream and peach muffins). Her simple technique of separating dry and wet ingredients, while not new, was well explained and demonstrated throughout each recipe. Given the host of interesting recipes in this book and the author's fool-proof technique, I had imagined myself whipping up unparalleled muffins that would bring people to their knees. I was, however, completely disappointed with the final product. I tried about 20 recipes in the book, all with the same sad end. Each recipe yielded muffins with a heavy and mealy consistency. This is probably Dipaolo's muffin preference (heavy and hearty versus light and fluffy) and the recipes have been constructed around her taste. This is not the recipe book for those with a taste for fat and fluffy quick breads.

Summary: Do you like taste of baking soda?
Review: I love to bake and to try new recipe.
After trying one recipe from this book -Buttermilk Pecan Muffins- I wonder if autor ever tryed any of this recipe herself! Muffins came out with strong taste of baking soda! No one in my family liked it and we had to throw it away! Most of her recipe require 2-3 tablespoons of baking soda or baking powder!!! Yes, tablespoons! I could not believe it! I would not recomend this book at all.
