5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, May 25, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Gluten, Wheat, and Dairy Free Cookbook (Paperback)

If you like good food, but can't eat wheat or dairy, this book is an absolute must. I use it all the time - even my non-allergic friends enjoy the recipes they are so good

This review is from: Gluten, Wheat, and Dairy Free Cookbook (Paperback)

In reply to the review from the reader from the Netherlands:

All of the recipes are wheat free and most are also gluten and dairy free

There are about 25 recipes (from over 220) that are indicated as being wheat, rather than gluten free, but these can easily be adapted to gluten free by changing the type of flour or pasta used. About 15 recipes contain dairy products

Less than 35% of the recipes in the book are for warm or cold desserts, most of which are recipes that people on gluten, wheat or dairy free diets could not normally eat

Here are three press reviews:

The Sunday Times Magazine
"A cookbook with such mouthwatering wheat-, dairy- and gluten-free recipes, that your dinner guests will never know the difference."

The Washington Times
"A wonderful addition to any cook's bookshelf... I recommend them to the allergic and non-allergic alike."

The Irish Times
"If your food allergy is to gluten, wheat or dairy products... this cookbook may just change your life."

1.0 out of 5 stars A total con, May 4, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Gluten, Wheat, and Dairy Free Cookbook (Paperback)

This book is a con. Not all the recipes are actually gluten- and dairy free (as the title clearly suggests), thus around 50% of the recipes are unusable! Also, 70% of the recipes in the book are for desserts requring, of course, masses of sugar!!
