Review: Most of the fruit pie recipes use alcohol with no substitutes suggested hence the low rating

From the Bakery of Afternoon Tea: Book of Pies cookbook by authors Ada Palles and Ana Palles is a delightfully written cookbook filled with plenty of color photos and recipes. The photos are a true selling point as they are gorgeous. The writing is pretty good too. The reason why I rated their cookbook with three stars is the majority of the fruit or berry based recipes use alcohol without suggestions on what you could substitute if you choose to not use alcohol in baking. You will find some of the following recipes in their cookbook:Apple Pie (use white wine or liqueur)Blueberry Pie (uses white wine)Mount Vernon Cherry Pie (uses white wine)Shaker Lemon Pie (no alcohol in this recipe)Chocolate Chip Walnut PieMaple Pecan PieEggnog PieKey Lime PieThere is an interactive table of contents making navigation easy.Recommend with caveats given.Penmouse
