JAMES BEARD AWARD WINNER - IACP AWARD WINNER - An "informative, enriching, and delicious" (Yotam Ottolenghi) guide to baking that combines easy-to-follow, science-based advice with 100 reliable recipes for both novices and more experienced bakers, from the renowned pastry chef behind the Kitchen Projects newsletter.

"Sift is a marvel of completeness, sound advice, encouragement, and joy. We're so lucky to have this book!"--Dorie Greenspan, New York Times bestselling author of Baking with Dorie

Sift begins with the foundational ingredients that underpin great bakes--flour, sugar, eggs, fat--before delving into the techniques that bring recipes to life: texture, color, how things rise, and a technical overview. 100 tested, tried, and true recipes follow and are organized by difficulty and time commitment, ranging from easy 30-minute cakes to spectacular showstoppers you can devote a weekend to, including:

- Bake in an afternoon: Marble Cake with Chocolate Frosting, Lemon Curd Meringue Tarts with Blackberries, Miso Walnut Double-Thick Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Bake in a day: Mango Shortcake with Candied Lime, Fancy Rhubarb Tart, Olive Oil Brie-oche with Roasted Grapes, Honey, and Thyme
- Bake in a weekend: 3-Day Focaccia; Pain au Chocolat; Classic Fruit Custard Danish

Gorgeous photos accompany every recipe and the infographic-style illustrations help home bakers easily grasp the hows and whys of baking so they can tackle any project with confidence.
