(*NEW ARRIVAL*) (Chez Panisse) Shere, Lindsey Remolif. Chez Panisse Desserts.

Preface by Alice Waters. Illus. by Wayne Thiebaud. Jacket. First Edition. NY: Random House, [1985].

Lindsey Shere, pastry chef at Chez Panisse since 1971, shares recipes for basic pastries, cookies, cakes, and creams grouped around their dominant ingredient--from apples and berries to dried fruits, chocolate, wine, and spirits. The subtle, surprising results complement seasonal menus. A bit of fading to jacket spine, a few short tears to jacket, price clipped, otherwise very good.
