GOOD BOOK FOR COOK/BAKER


"THE INQUISITIVE COOK" By Anne Gardiner and Sue Wilson with the EXPLORATORIUM
Discover How a Pinch of Curiosity Can Improve Your Cooking

This is definitly a good oneĀ for beginner or advanced cooks and bakers alike. It has some excellent info, and introduces you to the science of cooking and baking, but in a freindly, easy to understand way. They do experiments, some on the questions most of us are afraid to ask, like, "Could I put extra baking powder in my muffins if I wanted really puffy ones?" etc. It is really very interesting, and a great learning experience. Hope you're able to read and enjoy this book.

Non-Stick Kitchenaid Mixer Bowl

Ok, I have an idea and I'm looking to see if anyone else agrees. I have a KA mixer and make alot of wheat breads from my fresh milled grain. My dough has a tendency to stick to the sides of the bowl but, the same recipe won't stick in a breadmaker pan while kneading. My idea is to convince KA to make a mixing bowl with a non-stick coating inside like a breadmaker or rice cooker pan. I think that this would benefit MANY recipes and I want your opinions. I think if enough people liked the idea I may be able to get somewhere. Thanks.
