Accompanying the Channel 4 series, A Baker's Life contains 100 of
Paul Hollywood's very best baking recipes, which have been finessed over
decades spent as a baker.
Each chapter is filled with bakes that represent a different decade -
learning the basics at his father's bakery; honing his pastry skills in
the finest hotels; discovering the bold flavours of the Middle East
while working in Cyprus; and finding fame with the phenomenally popular
Great British Bake Off television series.
Thanks to this book (and its clear step-by-step instructions), recipes
that Paul has spent years perfecting can be recreated at home.
Favourites include garlic baguettes; feta and chive bread; chorizo and
chilli Scotch eggs; mum's ginger biscuits; double chocolate Danish
twists; and hazelnut cappuccino cake.
With photographs from personal family albums, plus many professional
insights into and anecdotes that reveal what makes a great baker, A
Baker's Life will show you how to bring the baking skills Paul has
learnt over a lifetime into your own home kitchen.
