How to Bake: Butter, Shortening, and Oil

Hi, I’m Dennis Weaver and I would like to share my baking book with you, How to Bake. It’s free. It’s illustrated. It’s the most comprehensive downloadable home baking guide you'll ever see.

If you study the material in this book, you won’t just be a better baker; you’ll be an expert baker. I’m going to teach you what I know—what you would learn in a culinary school—and not charge you a dime. That's a pretty good trade I'd say, since culinary school would cost you thousands of dollars.
I want to share what I’ve learned over the years and in my training. I want to make you a better baker. I’ll explain things in a way that you’ll understand and learn even if you’re a beginner. And even if you’re an expert, I promise you’ll still learn.

Save it, print it, add it to your kitchen library. Share it with your children and pass on your culinary knowledge to future generations.
