Description

A compact connoisseur’s guide, with recipes, to as of late’s state-of-the-art array of chocolates and chocolate makers from former Chez Panisse pastry chef David Lebovitz.

In this compact volume, David Lebovitz gives a succinct cacao botany lesson, explains the process of chocolate making, runs through chocolate terminology and types, presents information on health benefits, offers an evaluating and buying primer, profiles the world’s top chocolate makers and chocolatiers (with a complete chapter dedicated to Paris by myself!), and shares dozens of little-known factoids in sidebars right through the book.

The Great Book of Chocolate includes more than 50 location and food photographs, and features more than 30 of Lebovitz’s favorite chocolate recipes‚ from Black-Bottom Cupcakes to Homemade Rocky Road Candy, Orange and Rum Chocolate Mousse Cake to Double Chocolate Chip Espresso Cookies. His extensive resource section (with internet sites for international ordering) can bring the world’s perfect chocolate to each door. A self-avowed chocoholic, Lebovitz nibbles chocolate each day‚ and with The Great Book of Chocolate in hand, he figures the remainder of us will too.
