This was my first gluten free cook book that actually had recipes that didn't flop on me. I depended on this cookbook for the first 6 months that I went gluten free. We survived Christmas and made our own gluten free Christmas basket. The girls and I didn't miss a thing. The "Graham Cracker" and "Vanilla Wafer" recipes made Christmas baking possible.
Three different flour blend recipes to choose from. Great pictures to show you how to adapt without specialty pans. Tips and ideas for breading for fried foods. Great menu section. Lots of ways to substitute for dairy free and tells how you can substitute for wheat.
