[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If she's only into baking, not other cooking, skip the magazines and go with King Arthur Flour's "Baker's Companion." It's a great, great cookbook with a little bit of everything (quick breads, cakes, cookies, yeast breads, etc) and lots of background discussion of ingredients and techniques, but not at an overly complex level. Cook's Illustrated also has a great all-baking cookbook, but I find the KAF version friendlier for a beginner. And I agree with the scale. Makes baking so much easier and more reliable - just make sure she has cookbooks with weights indicated. (Such as: aforementioned KAF book...)[/quote] This is spot on! [/quote]
