Fab baking book. The introduction bit is a bit shorter and less detailed than I expected, as I am not an experienced baker I'd love to read some more about basics.
The pictures are really amazing. Caused me instant desire to try this recipes.
There are some really exciting recipes, like Caramelized Red Onion Cheddar and Parsley Scones, Feta Olive and Rosemary bread rolls, Peanut, Rye and Raisin Brownie, fig banana dark chocolate cake, etc. I really liked the cake section, you could easily start your own hipster coffee shop with these cake recipes.
I couldn't believe my eyes, after seeing a Gozleme recipe, which is a traditional Turkish pastry made in villages.
The recipes are detailed and need many ingredients, but I think this is only normal as most of them are quite interesting combination of mouth-watering ingredients... Can't wait to try some of those.
Thanks for the publisher and NetGalley for this copy, in exchange for an honest review.

The first thing you'll notice are the beautiful photographs that accompany the text...they'll have your mouth watering! The author talks about whole food ingredients, and the benefits of each type (eg, the various types of grain and the benefit of each), and then goes on to talk about her experience with whole food cooking. This isn't a health-food book, it's more of a 'better for you' book. The recipes are simple, but elegant, and look really tasty! There are sugars used in them, and plenty of desserts are offered, but it's 'better for you' because, if you're going to eat sugar and dessert, you might as well make it real, and tasty, food.
