Gr 5 Up�Cooking is a great way to absorb science concepts and learn lab techniques, and when that learning is incentivized with dessert? Slam dunk. Twelve recipes per book are presented in a nice tidy layout, with ingredients and supplies clearly listed in boxes at the top of the page. Detailed process writing in a slightly casual tone is good for clarity�a timer �dings,� frosting can lose its �fluffiness,� and illuminating sidebars explain what is happening as ingredients combine or heat is applied. In each volume, valuable information, especially for students, is �cemented by observable (and edible) results, which will also make for better cooking and baking results. Gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan recipes are sprinkled throughout, as well as substitutions for common allergens. Some recipes require only a microwave or a refrigerator, which is great for clubs or classrooms without access to an oven. Most recipes are for beginning bakers, but some are more challenging or fiddly�fortune cookies and biscotti. VERDICT Helpful tips, smart science, and lots of sugar! An excellent pick for cooking programs looking to incorporate science concepts.α(c) Copyright 2011. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
