Gluten Free cooking tastes good with these recipes. I agree these recipes are not everyday cooking. They are fairly easy. I love this book - it is my "go-to" cookbook because everything I've made out of this book tastes like a very good restaurant meal. If you are looking for special recipes - ones you can feed company - and still eat gluten free without it tasting gluten free - this would be a great addition to your cookbook library.

Wife, mother, and author Robyn Russell has had celiac disease for fourteen years; she doesn't let it stop her from preparing delicious and healthy meals. Gluten Free and Easy is Russell's compilation of mouth-watering recipes, each with featuring easy-to-follow instructions and a full-color, full-page photograph. From French potato salad, to tortiche (a quiche with a tortilla crust), Thai style chicken balls, curried sweet potato cakes with raita, almond biscotti, san choy bau, chicken with leek in white wine sauce and much more, the recipes draw from culinary traditions around the world and include a healthy dash of creativity; the one thing in common is that they are all gluten-free (sometimes relying on ingredients such as the misnamed "glutinous rice flour" of Asian supermarkets, which contains no gluten). Over ninety recipes ideal for pleasing all manners of tastebuds fill this superb cookbook enthusiastically recommended for gluten-intolerant individuals everywhere.

So many gluten-free books are about trying to create meals that are like regular meals just with gluten-free flours etc, which can be expensive. Most of these recipes do not require you to buy a ton of gluten-free products. This book offers delicious options using ingredients that you don't have to go to the specialty part of the store to buy! Well done!

This cookbook has both excellent recipes and instructions on how to make gluten free flour, etc. Very helpful and yummy. Thanks to author! Twila

Maybe it is a phase of life thing, but this book's recipes are beyond what I would usually use in my day to day cooking. It is interesting to look at, but not the nuts and bolts of cooking for daily use.
