Description

Imperfect Books

We firmly believe that beauty lies in imperfection, and that is why we want to give a second life to those books that, although new, have suffered some mishap. Imagine this: books that have withstood bumps during transport, small scratches, damaged spines or slightly touched edges. They are imperfect books on the outside, but we assure you that on the inside, they are true gems.

Why should these treasures go to waste due to mere external scratches? We want to invite you to reflect: wouldn't you read a book whose interior is impeccable, even if its external appearance has suffered some mishaps? Imperfect books are our response to the need to reduce waste and value the uniqueness of each book. We are committed to giving these specimens a second chance, giving them a home where they are appreciated for their content, beyond their small physical imperfections.

About the book

Introducing new and advantageous ingredients, simplifying the processes, improving the performance and applications of each product; in short, optimizing the technical side of pastry to the maximum. This is what evolutionary pastry is about, which Jordi Puigvert practices and teaches all over the world as a technical advisor for countless firms. And this is in fact the subject which this book, published by Grupo Vilbo and So Good.. magazine, revolves around.

In a didactic way, and with numerous step-by-step pictures for each technique, the book focuses on the so-called ‘technological’ ingredients, revealing their little known applications in pastry products. Puigvert proves that there are ingredients available to the artisans nowadays which do not subtract quality or nobility from a product at all, but allow to obtain magnificent results regarding texture, preservation and better interaction with other ingredients.

Jordi Puigvert has traveled the world teaching pastry and culinary professionals the results of his research and technical progresses. As for the regular courses he gives, places like Hong Kong, Italy, Singapore, the USA or Taiwan –among other– are usual on his agenda.
