3.0 out of 5 stars
Watch out for the title!, February 12, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: The Complete Whole Grain Cookbook (Paperback)
Don't be fooled by the title of this book which should be more appropriately named, "The Whole Grain Japanese Macrobiotic Cookbook". That is what it is! That is ok, however I wrongly assumed what the contents were when I ordered it online. There are very few recipes for breads and 90%+ of the main recipes call for ingredients such as: mochi, burdock, nori, daikon, amazake, kombu, soba, etc... Being non-Japanese, I have no idea what these are and unfortunately, in a very rural community, I doubt I could find them. Also, if you are allergic to CORN, a lot of corn products are called for.

Best whole grain book available, June 4, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The Complete Whole Grain Cookbook (Paperback)
This is by far the best whole grain book available using the powerful macrobiotic principles of healthy balance. I highly recommend it! The recipes are simple, easy to follow and clear. Since it is out of print, get it while used copies are still availble
