“King Arthur cookbooks will always be a staple in my kitchen library. Their beautifully precise recipes do the job all of us who write recipes for a living aim to do: hold the reader’s hand just enough to clearly guide them to a delicious result (cookies, in this case) while also teaching solid skills along the way.”
