Dorie Greenspan thought she was finished writing cookbooks. She had published her 13th book\u2014\u201ca baker\u2019s dozen,\u201d she joked\u2014but a suggestion that she do a savory baking book was enough to get her excited and inspired. The result, "Baking With Dorie," was recently released and it\u2019s not the savory-only work she thought she would produce. \u201cI just couldn\u2019t stay away from desserts,\u201d she says. Interviewing Dorie is baker Umber Ahmad, the owner of Mah-Ze-Dahr Bakery, which has locations in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Arlington, Virginia. \n\nTheir chat took place during the Cherry Bombe Cooks & Books conference, held at Ace Hotel Brooklyn.
