Older as well as younger wearers of orthodontia will find food they can sink their teeth into with the succulent, nutritious dishes featured in this cookbook. Full of recipes encompassing breakfast, lunch, dinner, appetizers, and desserts—Double Scrambled Egg Baskets, Cherry-Chicken Salad Bites, Brazilian Expresso Pot Roast, Swiss Tomato Fondue, and Dark Vanilla Drops—this cookbook contains 50 stay-soft recipes that avoid hard, sticky, crunchy, and chewy ingredients yet offer great taste. The basic recipes aimed at beginning or moderately experienced cooks use ingredients commonly stocked in the house or at local grocery stores and can generally be prepared in 30 to 60 minutes. More adventurous chefs—or those seeking a spin on presentation—will find gourmet hints adjacent to each recipe. Tips for how to feel better on braces adjustment day, ideas for packing lunches, a glossary of orthodontic terms, and a web resource list for additional information are also included.

I wish I had had this when I had my braces,
By wakowa "wakowa" (Silicon Valley, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Braces Cookbook 2: Comfort Food with a Gourmet Touch (Paperback)
Yum! I just baked the sour cream coffee cake in this cookbook; I wish I had had this cookbook when I had my braces on -- over an year ago. I was an adult -- in my early 40s -- on my second round of braces. The first time was as a teenager; frankly, I don't remember what I ate back then, but I don't recall that it was as uncomfortable as this second time around. The key factor for food is that it had to be SOFT.The thing with soft is that it gets pretty boring. At least that was the case for me, even though I had no qualms about mushing things up. When I got this book, I was kind of expecting boring mushy looking foods. To my very pleasant surprise, this is not the case at all. The recipes look great -- very tasty looking, but also simple and uncomplicated -- and the photos are beautiful. And as they explain, it's for adults. It's bad enough looking like a teenage metalmouth without being able to eat grown-up food. The authors have done braces-wearers a great service by focusing on softness -- which is paramount -- but not skimping on flavor or the quality of the cookbook. The coffee cake I just made was easy and yummy. These recipes aren't just for braces-weares, by the way; I plan to check out some of the other recipes, too.
