From acclaimed pastry chef Clarice Lam: a visually sumptuous pan-Asian baking book exploring an umami-rich array of baked goods, confections, and savoury snacks.
Breaking Bao is a culinary journey bridging gaps between Asian flavours and global techniques. It is a collection of recipes rooted in renowned chef Clarice Lam’s journey of self-discovery and the transformative power of embracing one’s heritage. Here are 88 approachable recipes that are firmly rooted in classical French technique but travel far and wide.
Featuring more than 100 stunning photographs by prominent food, lifestyle, and travel photographer Evan Sung, Breaking Bao is a visual feast as well as a go-to cookbook. For home cooks looking to expand their repertories, these projects range from simple cookies and flavoured popcorn snacks to lavish mille feuille and laminated pastries. With humour, whimsy, and respect for traditions, Lam invites readers into these pages to break barriers, bread, and bao, all at the same table.
