The Gluten-Free Gourmet Cooks Comfort Foods: Creating Old Favorites with the New Flours, Cookbook of The Day

The luscious looking gluten free blueberry muffins I mentioned on Wednesday were from an original recipe from a gluten-free blogger who told readers that it takes patience and a willingness to experiment to be able to produce good gluten-free baked goods. Since I don't have to avoid gluten, I ended up making a batch of regular muffins to satisfy my craving, but The Gluten-Free Gourmet Cooks Comfort Foods: Creating Old Favorites with the New Flours may be the perfect book to add to your collection if you are looking to learn to use gluten free flours your kitchen.

The recipes are great and there are plenty of comfort-food favorites to choose from, like Biscuits and Gravy, Lemon Pudding Cake, Macaroni and Cheese, Banana Bread, Buckwheat Pancakes and Chicken Pot Pie , all of which have had gluten-containing components eliminated. The most useful parts of the book are probably the sections that discuss the properties of different "exotic flours" and other supplies that are commonly used in gluten-free baking, many of which will not be familiar to someone who has relied on wheat flours before.

Thank you for this, my girlfriend recently was diagnosed with celiac disease, so I'm trying to find her tasty gluten free food.

I grabbed a copy of this book on Amazon for $10 and passed the links on to my girlfriend.
