Casual, effortless, chic: These are not words you'd use to describe most
desserts. But before Alison Roman made recipes so perfect that they go
by one name--The Cookie, The Pasta, The Lemon Cake--she was a restaurant
pastry chef who spent most of her time learning to make things the hard
way. She studied flavor, technique, and precision, then distilled her
knowledge to pare it all down to create dessert recipes that feel
special and approachable, impressive and doable. In Sweet Enough,
Alison has written the book for people who think they don't have the
time or skill to pull off dessert. Here, the desserts you want to make
right away, you can make right away.
Alison shows you how to make simple yet sublime sweets with her
trademark casualness, like how to make jam in the oven, then turn that
jam into a dessert--swirled into ice cream or folded into easy one-bowl
cake batter. (Opening a jar of jam is more than fine, too.) She waxes
poetic on the virtues of frozen fruit and teaches you the best way to
throw your own Sundae Party. There are effortless cakes that take just
minutes to get into a pan. And there are new, instant classics with a
signature Alison twist, like Salted Lemon Pie, Raspberries and Sour
Cream, Toasted Rice Pudding, or a Caramelized Maple Tart. Requiring
little more than your own two hands and a few mixing bowls, the recipes
are geared towards those without fancy equipment or specialty
ingredients.
Whether you're a dedicated baker or, better yet, someone who doesn't
think they are a baker, Sweet Enough lets you finish any dinner, any
party, or any car ride to a dinner party with a little something
wonderful and sweet.
