5.0 out of 5 stars I'll Use It Over and Over Again, April 30, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Gluten-Free Kitchen: Over 135 Delicious Recipes for People with Gluten Intolerance or Wheat Allergy (Paperback)

I was so pleased to find this book! Imagine a gluten-free cookbook that doesn't use rice flour! I love the fact that most of the recipe instructions simply say, 'blend all ingredients' together rather than having numerous steps to follow. This cookbook covers everything "From French Toast to Fried Chicken". I'll be cooking from this book for years to come.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bless Roben Ryberg!!!!!!!!!, August 27, 2004

By	C. Schaefer (Stafford Springs, CT USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Gluten-Free Kitchen: Over 135 Delicious Recipes for People with Gluten Intolerance or Wheat Allergy (Paperback)

I just found out I was allergic to wheat, so - of course - I spent alot of time on the web looking for information on wheat allergies. I went to the Gluten Free Pantry website and was so discouraged by the prices of their mixes and the myriad of products. I was confused and despondent. Then I went to Amazon to try to find some books to help me. Luckily I found The Gluten Free Kitchen! This book has saved my sanity and lifted me from the depths of despair.

Roben Ryberg gives you the information you need to know, without going into more detail than you want to know. Short and simple - easy to understand - she removes the fear. Then she gives you the receipes that will change your life back to (almost) normal. Simple receipes with simple ingredients. Ingredients that you can buy at a health food store. Delicious bread that you can make - quickly and easily - so that you can enjoy a sandwich or toast again! What a relief! What luxury!

I love this book!! Can you tell?

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for last-minute dinner breads, biscuits, and breakfast, June 1, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: The Gluten-Free Kitchen: Over 135 Delicious Recipes for People with Gluten Intolerance or Wheat Allergy (Paperback)

This book is a great one to have in a gluten-free kitchen. It offers many recipes for baked items that use common ingredients, all made with potato starch and cornstarch as the flours. These are easy to keep on hand or buy at the grocery store. While I bake with the bean and rice flours used in other gluten-free cookbooks when I have time (for nutrition), this is the book I turn to for something quick, or if I'm low on unusual flours. Every single thing I've made out of here my entire family loved. We use the pancakes, waffles, and biscuit recipes frequently. This book is also excellent if you are on vacation, or cooking only for one person (we freeze leftovers), since you don't have to have a large variety of flours.
