No more baking disasters! guarantees Randi Levin, author of the new cookbook Baking at High Altitude: The Muffin Lady'ss Old Fashioned Recipes (ISBN 097450081X). This collection of recipes and baking tips is quickly becoming the definitive cookbook and resource for kitchens located high above the ocean, winning Best First Cookbook in the World 2004 - Gourmand World Cookbook Awards, and 1st Place EVVY Awards 2004 - Colorado Independent Publishers Association.
Baking at High Altitude shares over 150 original Levin family recipes ranging from cookies and cakes, to sweetbreads and strudels, plus baking tips reflecting 30 years of successful baking at high elevations. This assortment of phenomenal time-tested recipes include those shared and passed down through generations, while some are a result of Levin'ss adventures in her own kitchen high in the Rocky Mountains. These recipes will tantalize taste buds and relieve the stresses of the home baker who is frustrated time and again with concave cakes, flat cookies, and dry breads and muffins.
Levin resides in the mountains of Colorado where she has become affectionately known as The Muffin Lady. She began sharing her mouth-watering baked goods with friends and family, and as word spread, local shops in the area including Wild Oats Natural Marketplace, wanted regular deliveries of her special muffins and baked treats. Her consistently delicious and beautifully crafted treats led many to inquire, and ask for her secrets. With a sincere understanding that knowledge is for sharing, Levin decided to give people what they wanted, and began compiling her secrets for baking under such unusual conditions.
Baking at High Altitude is a scrumptious heart-filled cookbook full of passion, love, and diversity. I guarantee that this cookbook will make you smile and your palate explode with flavors, says Levin. With tempting color photos to entice the visual treat lover, and the unique inclusion of alternatives to encompass the requirements of heart friendly and/or diabetic friendly diets, Levin has truly produced a definitive cookbook for baking over 4000 feet. This is a must have for anyone wanting to experience the ease of successfully producing the same incredible, edible homemade treats time and time again, under the most challenging of geographic conditions.
Randi Levin was raised in Philadelphia and now resides in Evergreen, CO. Her appreciation for preparing foods began before she could read and write, and her passion for helping people inspired degrees in Psychology and Education. A medical diagnosis caused her to switch career paths and she began baking and distributing her treats around her hometown and Denver, CO.
