Product Description

Product Description

With no specific dessert chef training, David approaches the idea of dessert free from doctrine, and instead, is able to instruct with precision and passion. A great originator of recipes, David has created a book that is singular in its content, style, and astonishing originality. The chapter titled Chocolate and Nut contains recipes for White Chocolate, Banana, and Peanut Bread Pudding with Chestnut Honey Ice Cream; and Bitter Chocolate and Black Olive Tarts with Fennel Ice Cream. A Fruit chapter includes Cantaloupe Melon Soup with Watermelon, Roasted Strawberries and Strawberry Sorbet. The section on Vegetable desserts contains Jerusalem Artichoke Cheesecake with Bergamot Glaze and Peanut Ice Cream; and Sweetcorn Cream with Caramel and Popcorn Ice Cream. From Roots, Pods, Seeds and Bark he creates Green Aniseed Beignets; or Liquorice Macaroons with Tangerine Jelly and Sorbet. And lastly, a section devoted to Wild foods offers Sorrel Ice Cream with Wood Sorrel and Compote of Brambles; as well as Acorn Tiramisu. "Dessert" is destined to become a classic of seasonal, innovative cooking.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, 26 Mar 2009
This review is from: Dessert: Dessert Recipes from Le Champignon Sauvage (Hardcover)
I disagree with moz88.I am a pastry chef and found the recipies to be inovative, seasonal and inspired. It is worth noting that Davids cooking style can be rustic even messy and that michelin stars are awarded based on flavour and not presentation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Destined to become another classic, 17 Dec 2011
This review is from: Dessert: Dessert Recipes from Le Champignon Sauvage (Hardcover)
Following on from his critically acclaimed debut, Essence, this stunning second book explores the world, and pushes the boundaries, of the dessert chef's art. Each of the book's five main chapters focuses on a specific family of ingredients: Chocolate and Nut; Fruit; Vegetable; Roots, Pods, Seeds and Bark; and Wild. There is also a section outlining the essentials and basics from which his craft begins and several pages of Petits Fours - the perfect finishing touch.
Another fantastic publication the love from Davis is so clear to see..
