Great gluten-free recipes that the whole family will enjoy.
When
a family member has gluten intolerance, the cooking responsibilities
are seriously challenged. Donna Washburn and Heather Butt have created
tantalizing recipes that not only deal with that allergy but will please
the rest of the family, too.
This comprehensive kitchen
companion includes tasty and innovative ideas for baked goods, pasta
dishes, appetizers, family meals and mouthwatering desserts. Since many
who must manage a gluten intolerance also have other allergies, the
authors provide recipes for dairy-free, egg-free and white sugar-free
dishes as well.
Here's a small sampling of the 250 tantalizing recipes:
- Rosemary bread sticks, French toast
- Jelly roll, chocolate chunk cheesecake, pumpkin Thanksgiving dessert
- Cheese soufflé, Tex-Mex potato fries, lasagna
- Chicken quesadillas, Caprese salad
- Classic French onion soup, minestrone soup
- Crispy calamari, roasted garlic dip.
The
authors also include extensive information on grains, including
amaranth, corn, Montina (a flour created from Indian rice grass), quinoa
and teff (a grain from northeastern Africa). A special section on
gluten-free grains deals with their appearance, flavor and texture, plus
it also provides suggestions on how to use and store them.
