Tasty July 27, 2008 Michael W. Dehart (No Va) This was purchased as a gift for a friend with a wheat allergy. She loves it and has already made and enjoyed several recipes.
A great place to start July 8, 2008 Phoenix (Minneapolis, MN USA) This book opens with a clear, concise explanation in layman's terms of gluten intolerance and celiac disease and anticipates your next question by providing reference lists of foods that contain gluten followed by possible substitutes. Particularly handy for shoppers is the "labeling terms" list; a useful tool that identifies other terms in an ingredient list that translate to gluten content. As for the recipes themselves, you'll find a decent variety including Tex-Mex, Asian, Mediterranean and even a few East Indian dishes, in appetizers, entrees and desserts. The recipes are clearly written, simple to follow and the results are tasty. I particularly appreciate the bread section. In a home where sandwiches were popular and baguettes were expected to accompany salads and soups, a good tasting bread that does not come crumbling from a frozen food section is important. Keep an eye out too, for the "Cook's Tip" notations - they provide useful info that applies beyond a specific recipe. One final note - while this is a great book for the gluten-challenged vegetarian, if you also have egg, nut or lactose allergies, there are other books that use less of those ingredients and so require less adaptation to the recipes.
cookbook for the discriminating June 23, 2008 Lori Feinman (eugene, Oregon) This is an amazing cookbook...I have never eaten this well and enjoyed it so much...I now cook and extras are frozen so I can share them with others. The dishes are so enjoyable they are my mainstay now. I own a verity of cookbooks and this is clearly the best. Sorry I am so efusive but you can't miss this one.
Great Veggie Gluten free book April 27, 2008 Kelly Obrien (Aurora CO USA) This book is so wonderful, I gave away mine and had to buy another one. It has great ideas. It is for everyone who needs a gluten free diet and other who just want something different!!
One of the better gluten free, vegetarian cookbooks! April 5, 2008 P. Wilson (Rockwall, TX) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It is hard to cook for a child that has a gluten/dairy and meat free diet but this book gave me some ideas. Although some of the recipes call for dairy, I substitute dairy free items. I would recommend this book to anyone on this special diet.
