Baking Made Easy: So Easy

Lorraine Pascale is a brand new talent in the kitchen and she's shaking up baking in this first episode of her new series. The show kicks off with a feat of baking engineering, parmesan and poppy seed lollipops that are actually one of the simplest and fastest things you can bake. Then it's time for some insider know how, as Lorraine goes through her baker's dozen of essential kit. It is back to the kitchen for soda bread after that - no kneading, no rising, no effort - fresh bread doesn't get easier than this. Even classic French patisserie gets the easy treatment. Lorraine's blueberry and lemon millefeuille are full of incredible shortcuts. She's sharing her basic recipe for shortcrust pastry, which makes a fantastic case for a stunning fig, cream cheese and mint tart. If you want to impress with baking, look no further than the 'I Can't Believe You Made That!' cake. It's chocolatey, stunning to look at, heavenly to eat and of course, so easy
