ebook

1 of 1 copy available
A cookbook for lemon lovers with more than seventy "mouthwateringly irresistible" dessert recipes (Publishers Weekly).
Lemon sweets are the divas of desserts. Assertive and bold, lemons can be flamboyant, tart, and tangy as in the Lemon Granita or sweet, mellow, and velvety like the creamy Lemon Panna Cotta. Over seventy recipes—from the classics to lip-smacking new favorites—are enticingly presented in Luscious Lemon Desserts.
These recipes vary from the simple to the sublime, from the quick and easy to the most elaborate showstoppers, whether it's a fast and fabulous lemon pudding or a Mile-High Lemon Angel Food Cake. Former editor of Gourmet Lori Longbotham also provides great tips on buying, storing, and using this most popular fruit.
"Longbotham's splendid recipes are as fresh, bright, and zesty as the fruit she celebrates." —Dorie Greenspan, author of Baking with Julia
"This author knows her lemons and how to make them shine." —San Francisco Chronicle
"When life hands you lemons, lunge for this book!" —Tish Boyle, author of Diner Desserts

      "Lemon" especially when applied to cars is often used as a term of derogation. But Lori Longbotham, former Gourmet magazine editor, has better ideas about this beautiful fruit, and her Luscious Lemon Desserts explores lemon cakes, pies, puddings, custards, cookies, ice creams, shortcakes, cr pes, truffles, peels, curds, popsicles, confections and sauces with panache and, well, zest. Over 70 recipes for decadent treats Profiteroles, Chilled Lemon Souffle, Chocolate Ganache Tart with Lots of Lemon, Luscious Lemon and Blueberry Tiramisu, Lemon Cr me Br l e, Lemon Mascarpone-Clementine Gratins and Lemon Sorbet-Filled Lemons accompanied by mesmerizing color photos, convincingly make Longbotham's point that "lemons are the divas of desserts." This book offers some of the same tips on buying and zesting lemons as Lemon Zest, but otherwise there's impressively little overlap between the two. Anyone craving summer desserts will find these recipes mouthwateringly irresistible.
