The ultimate guide to savory baking using fragrant spices and herbs, fresh produce, rich cheeses and meats, and more
Baking is about a lot more than just desserts. This unique collection, one of the few to focus solely on the savory side of baking, explores a multitude of flavor possibilities. Get inspired by creative twists like gochujang-filled puff pastry pinwheels or feta-studded dill-zucchini bread. And sample traditional baked goods from around the world, from Chinese lop cheung bao to Brazilian pão de quejo.
 
Our flexible recipes let you keep things simple by often using store-bought doughs and crusts, or go all out and make them from scratch using our foolproof methods. No matter what kind of baker you are, you’ll be inspired by the irresistible flavors, from everyday biscuits to showstopping breads, including:
 
Quick breads, scones, biscuits, and pastries: Turn scones savory with panch phoran, an Indian spice blend with cumin, fennel, and mustard seeds. Bake the flakiest biscuits ever, packed with fresh sage and oozing with melty Gruyère. Even danish goes savory with goat cheese and Urfa chile.
 
Tarts, galettes, and pies: Jamaican spiced beef patties or a flaky galette with corn, tomatoes, and bacon will be your new favorite lunch (or breakfast, or snack). Or make pizza chiena, the over-the-top Italian double-crusted pie of eggs, cheeses, and cured meats.
 
Batter and stovetop “bakes”: Popovers bursting with blue cheese and chives dress up dinner, while bread pudding with butternut squash and spinach makes the brunch table. And savory pancakes are for anytime, whether you choose Chinese cōngyóubing or Korean kimchi jeon.
 
Flatbreads, pizza, rolls, and loaves: Try alu paratha, the Northern Indian potato-stuffed flatbread. Shape mushroom crescent rolls or a challah enlivened by saffron and rosemary. And for kids of any age, bake a pizza monkey bread.
 
Every recipe has a photo you’ll want to sink your teeth into, and ATK-tested techniques plus step-by-step photos walk you through rolling out pie and galette doughs; shaping breads and rolls; stretching pizza dough; and more.

      Starred review from February 15, 2022
      Cookies, cakes, and pies are standard themes for baking cookbooks, but in this latest offering from the fertile minds at America's Test Kitchen the recipes focus on savory baked goods. Pizzas, flatbreads, crackers, and stuffed breads all shine here. It's hard to know where to start with these dozens of ideas since they all burst with flavor potential, and recipes hold enough encouragement for home bakers to propel them into the kitchen and fire up their ovens. These doughs comprise both quick-leavened (jalape�o-cheddar scones, sweet-potato cornbread) and yeast-raised (pizzas and stuffed crusts) products. Decidedly international coverage offers recipes for Turkish lahmajun, Chinese barbeque pork buns, South Asian panch phoran scones, Qu�becois tourti�re, Brazilian pan de queijo, Jamaican beef patties, and much more. Crusts to encase rich fillings may be buttery short pastry or crispy filo. Meat pies can function as main courses, and there are some vegan and gluten-free options to add to the book's wide appeal. Color photographs inventory ingredients and equipment, show intended results, and illustrate some of the more complex procedures for the cook. Introductory essays for each recipe give background information and tips for making things come out perfectly.
