Rachel Allen: Bake!

Rachel Allen: Bake! is an Irish culinary series hosted by the eponymous celebrity chef, author, and television personality, who leads viewers through a wide variety of recipes for delicious baked goods both savory and sweet that are guaranteed to astound your friends and family with that fresh-baked taste you can't find in commercial bakeries. The art of baking is no longer as prevalent as it once was, with store-bought breads, cakes, pies, and pastries rising to prominence because of their convenience and availability. In this series, Rachel Allen sets out to remind viewers of the joys of home baking. Sure, anyone can run to the store and buy a loaf of bread. But you can't buy the joy of creating your own loaves in your home oven, where the warm smell of rising dough brings family and friends rushing to the kitchen. In each episode, Rachel takes the mystery out of baking as she introduces viewers to some of her favorite recipes for home-made breads, deserts, and treats. MORE
