Good book, good info, and great recipes

I have only gotten to try a few of the recipes so far but they have all come out at least alright. So far i have gotten to try some of the bread ones and they came out good, the sandwich bread was fine (we couldnt get white rice flour and had to use sweet brown but it was fine, just had a little of the normal GF crumble to it), the corn bread how ever you cannot tell it is GF.

there are so many breads and other stuff listed i cannot wait to try many more of the recipes

the author has a flour mix that is used in most of the recipes that uses sorgum flour, a little hard to find but it seems to work well. there is also a modification list on how to add, subtract, substitute ingredients in the mix depending on what you are making to give it more "normal" characteristics.

if you or some one you know has to live GF this book should be one of the first books to buy

terrific

Great book, a celiac's dream. It has everything, the widest variety of recipes I've seen in a GF cookbook. The only thing that would improve this volume would be some pictures of at least some of the recipes.

best GF all around cookbook out there!

Finally, a comprehensive, everything you could ever need gf cookbook. This really IS the "joy of cooking" of GF cooking. It's the go-to book with all of the standard recipes you could possibly want. Carol uses a broad range of ingredients, and gives recipes ranging from healthy to decadent. From the vegan options to carnivorous, there's something for everyone.

I made the vanilla cupcakes first, and my husband asked if they had gluten. That might not seem like a dumb question, but I haven't baked with gluten for many years!

So if you need one gluten free cookbook, this is it. And if you have additional allergies, look at my very favorite cookbook, Cooking free, which is also by Carol.

Caution-uses Expandex

Carol Fenster really is one of the greatest GF cooks out there, and her recipes are excellent. But I am disappointed that her new cookbook uses Expandex in some of the recipes without much discussion of what you should use if you do not have this product. She does have a chart at the front of the book, but it's a little confusing. I am certain that Expandex is a superior item to have in my cupboard; I am just wishing, since this is a new product and not as easy to buy as some GF baking things, that she had addressed this issue a little better.

Otherwise, if you're prepared for this one thing, the cookbook is quickly going to become my main one, because her recipes are so trustworthy and fine-tasting.

great cookbook

I have several of Carol Fenster's past cookbooks. This is such a complete book, it is like the Joy of Cooking for gluten-free. Some of the gluten-free cookbooks are just recycled old recipes with the gluten out. The recipes in this book are very innovative and creative. The only down side of that is you might have trouble finding some of the ingredients she uses like the modified tapioca starch and teff. But it is worth searching them out on the internet and it broadened my horizons in gluten-free cooking, and I am a dietitian who has been cooking gluten-free for 15 years.I think I was in a rut with my cooking and this inspired me to try new and healthy recipes. My family is going to be surprised at Christmas!
If my patients can only afford 1 book this is what I would recommend. It is a good value at the price Amazon sells it at.
