Momofuku Milk Bar: A Cookbook

Description

The highly anticipated complement to the New York Times bestselling Momofuku
cookbook, Momofuku Milk Bar reveals the recipes for the innovative, addictive
cookies, pies, cakes, ice creams, and more from the wildly popular Milk Bar
bakery. Momofuku Milk Bar shares the recipes for Christina Tosi’s fantastic
desserts—the now-legendary riffs on childhood flavors and down-home classics
(all essentially derived from ten mother recipes)—along with the compelling
narrative of the unlikely beginnings of this quirky bakery’s success. It all
started one day when Momofuku founder David Chang asked Christina to make a
dessert for dinner that night. Just like that, the pastry program at Momofuku
began. Christina’s playful desserts, including the compost cookie, a chunky
chocolate-chip cookie studded with crunchy salty pretzels and coffee grounds;
the crack pie, a sugary-buttery confection as craveable as the name implies;
the cereal milk ice cream, made from everyone’s favorite part of a nutritious
breakfast—the milk at the bottom of a bowl of cereal; and the easy layer cakes
that forgo fancy frosting in favor of unfinished edges that hint at the
yumminess inside helped the restaurants earn praise from the New York Times
and the Michelin Guide and led to the opening of Milk Bar, which now draws
fans from around the country and the world. With all the recipes for the
bakery’s most beloved desserts—along with ones for savory baked goods that
take a page from Chang’s Asian-flavored cuisine, such as Kimchi Croissants
with Blue Cheese—and 100 color photographs, Momofuku Milk Bar makes baking
irresistible off-beat treats at home both foolproof and fun. Read more
