There are more than 200 recipes in this impressive book, the result of fifteen years' experimentation with a wide variety of gluten-free flours. Many recipes give milk substitutes as well. Mrs Hagman lists foods that are safe for a gluten-free diet and foods that must be avoided. She points out hidden glutens that can be found in food items, prescriptions, or even in the glue on envelope flaps. She supplies a list of companies that make gluten-free foods and flours and that will accept mail and/or phone orders.
Bette Hagman a.k.a. the Gluten-free Gourmet, is also the author of More from the Gluten-free Gourmet, The Gluten-free Gourmet Bakes Bread and The Gluten-free Gourmet Cook Fast and Healthy. Diagnosed as a celiac more than twenty years ago, she has devoted her time to creating recipes for gluten-free flours. A writer and lecturer, she lives in Seattle.
