About Good & Sweet: A New Way To Bake With Naturally
Product Description ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE YEAR: Los Angeles Times, Serious Eats Groundbreaking recipes for real desserts—sweetened entirely by fruit and other natural, unexpectedly sweet ingredients—from a pastry cook who’s worked at acclaimed restaurants in New York and France. Brian Levy spent years making pastries the traditional way, with loads of refined sugar and white flour, at distinguished restaurants, inns, and private homes in the United States and Europe. But he discovered another world of desserts—one that few bakers have explored—where there’s no need for cane sugar or coconut sugar, for maple syrup or honey, or for anything like stevia. When Levy succeeded in making a perfect mango custard, harnessing only the natural sweetness of fruit with no added sugar, it was a breakthrough that inspired years of experimentation converting other desserts into nutritious indulgences. In Good & Sweet, Levy stretches this experiment across 100 recipes that ingeniously deploy fruit (dried, juiced, and fresh), nuts, grains, dairy, and fermented products to create sweet treats whose flavor is enriched by whole-food, feel-good ingredients. Every recipe offers substitutions for dietary restrictions and includes a flavorful sweetener that exceeds cane sugar, from freeze-dried sweet corn to coconut cream and apple cider. A Pistachio-Studded Peach Galette gets its wings from fresh fruit, dried apricots, and orange juice; chestnuts, golden raisins, and dried apples perform a pas de trois in Chestnut Ricotta Ice Cream; and dates, milk powder, and a touch of miso paste make for a dense, caramely Sticky Toffee Pudding Cake. With sweets like these—ones that nudge you toward mindful eating but don’t compromise flavor—you’ll never have to give up dessert. Review “Good and Sweet is a treasure trove of genius ideas and inspiration, as well as great desserts; a much-needed and brand new (but not daunting) baking education for all of us!” - Alice Medrich, five-time James Beard Cookbook Award-Winning author "Brian Levy’s Good and Sweet is an inspiring book full of sweet recipes that use the natural sweetness from fruits, grains and whole food ingredients to make delightful pastries and desserts. I can tell you that having worked with Brian, he is thoughtful, creative and attends to every detail in his cooking and baking. From sticky toffee pudding to butterscotch pots de crème to breakfast coffee cake with berry jam and cinnamon streusel Brian creates delicious recipes that are good for you too. I am looking forward to making the sweets in this lovely book." – Melissa Weller, author of A Good Bake “Brian Levy has captured the soul satisfying delight of desserts without adding demon sugar to the mix. Carefully calibrated formulas bring out all the natural flavors of his ingredients and the textures are equally appealing in these recipes. Our palates are changing, and Good & Sweet charts the path forward.” - Bill Yosses, author of The Sweet Spot “This book is amazing! Brian Levy showcases bold and unexpected flavors alongside comforting favorites in a whole new fruit-sweetened light.
