Summary: Kudos to Carole Walter: A Wonderful Chef, Teacher, Author
Comment: "Great Pies & Tarts" proves its worth, as your taste will attest, when you sample the results from the instructions and recipies presented. Please note, Arthur Schwartz, a wonderful culinary professional, is not a co-author as advertised. Examining the book will confirm this.
Rating: 3
Summary: Good recipes, poor organization
Comment: Although there are some good recipes in this book (blueberry tart with walnut topping is one) I spent a lot of time flipping pages, trying to find information. I feel like the book could have been organized more effectively, which is unfortunate considering how much useful information it contains. Overall a good addition to the recipe library, but I often find myself using other references to supplement this book. Also, in a few cases I question the techniques or ingredients, for instance the use of baking powder in the food processor version of the "flaky pie crust."

Summary: Instructions and pictures GREAT! Taste - not mine
Comment: The pictures are great. The instructions are clear and well-written. I desperately wanted this book to work. I tried two pies, cranberry-apple and peach-blueberry, using Flaky Pie Crust II for a food processor. I tasted the filling prior to putting it into the crust. It tasted good both times. We tossed out the pie each time after having a slice. The bitter aftertaste just lingered, even 4 hours later.
The filling descriptions sound so good that I'm willing to give it one more try . . .
