"  If you read In the Kitchen and On the Road with Dorie, Dorie Greenspan&amp;#039;s blog or follow her on Facebook or Twitter, you&amp;#039;ll probably read this introductory paragraph and immediately &amp;quot;run&amp;quot; to the iTunes store to download her just-released iPad app, Baking with Dorie. That&amp;#039;s because just from her postings you already know that Dorie is one of those incredibly lovely, irrepressibly enthusiastic people, that you want as a girlfriend, who also happens to be a fabulous cook. You&amp;#039;ve probably felt like she&amp;#039;s there holding your hand, encouraging you on from using her cookbooks. Well, now you can have her right there in the kitchen with you, showing you what to do. Baking with Dorie ($13) produced by Culinapp, features 24 recipes, well let&amp;#039;s call them cooking lessons, for everything from &amp;quot;Basic Biscuits&amp;quot; to &amp;quot;Tarte Tatin&amp;quot;. Now I&amp;#039;m the type of person who learns best from reading, not listening. But when I was first becoming a cook, there were some things I just couldn&amp;#039;t get from a cookbook. It was by watching Julia Child on my tiny black and white TV that I learned exactly how to roll out pie dough, fold in whipped cream, and frost a cake. For you, here&amp;#039;s the delightful Ms. Greenspan to show just what the cream should look like before you add the sugar for a pie topping, how to tell with a touch when butter has reached room temperature, and when to stop beating the pastry cream. As friendly as Dorie is, when she&amp;#039;s manning the mixer, it&amp;#039;s all about teaching you how to bake, not about Dorie.   Just like your pastry dough, Dorie&amp;#039;s tears slightly as she rolls it out but she doesn&amp;#039;t fret, just shows you how to mend it. When she fearlessly turns over her &amp;quot;Tarte Tatin&amp;quot; (upside-down apple tart) and removes the cast-iron skillet to reveal what I can only call a masterpiece, her joy at the sight of her own creation will send you running for your apple peeler. Personally, I can&amp;#039;t wait to try folding sour cream into whipped cream to &amp;quot;change the complexity&amp;quot; as Dorie does in her unusual take on &amp;quot;Banana Cream Pie&amp;quot;. If you don&amp;#039;t own an iPad, or just want loads more cooking videos, be sure to see Susan to the Rescue, Good Housekeeping&amp;#039;s own cooking tutorials from GH Food Director Susan Westmoreland.
