The Dairy-Free Kitchen: 100 Recipes for all the Creamy Foods You Love--Without Lactose, Casein, or Dairy Paperback – Illustrated, January 15, 2014
| Price | New from | Used from |
Purchase options and add-ons
While 4% of the population suffers from diagnosed lactose intolerance, it is estimated that a staggering 50 million Americans suffer from some degree of dairy intolerance/allergy.
Moreover, recent research has linked milk protein (casein) to cancer and autoimmune illnesses and found evidence that our bodies quit making the enzymes necessary to digest milk as we age--thus setting up those who consume a dairy-rich diet for IBS, allergies and other autoimmune and digestive difficulties. Dairy has become the "new gluten"--something that people are realizing needs to be minimized in our diet whether they have a formally diagnosed allergy or not.
The Dairy-Free Kitchen contains 100 delicious recipes for the foods you love without the dairy. It also provides you with a wealth of information on weeding out hidden dairy in everyday foods and getting adequate levels of calcium and minerals from a dairy-free diet. Going dairy-free isn't as complicated as you think. You can do it! The Dairy-Free Kitchen will help.

Blueberry Cornmeal Muffins
These light, bright muffins are dairy free, gluten free, and soy free, which makes them wonderful for serving larger groups with varied diets. You can make 12 standard-size muffins, or use a mini muffin tin to yield 24 mini muffins—just reduce your baking time to 12 minutes. Xanthan gum is available at health food stores, specialty stores, and online.
Directions
Preheat the oven to 325°F (170°C, or gas mark 3). Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners. Make the batter. In a medium bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, cornmeal, baking powder, xanthan gum, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the oil, light brown sugar, eggs, maple syrup, and almond milk or coconut milk. Mix until well combined. Gently fold in the blueberries with a spatula until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter. Portion the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each liner about three-quarters full. Bake for 20–22 minutes, or until the top of the muffin springs back slightly when touched. Cool muffins in the pan for 15–20 minutes before transferring them to a wire cooling rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature.

What most of us bought the book for, though, was the recipes. For me, at least, these disappoint. There are six recipes for dairy-free milks. Despite the fact that the process for making a plant-based milk is virtually the same from one base ingredient to another, these are printed up as six separate recipes which, in my opinion, just adds to the mystery surrounding dairy-free cooking and makes things look more complicated than they actually are. Then we have two sour cream options, five nut cheese & a soy cheese, three different yogurt options (again, basically three variations of the same recipe), and one for margarine. All told, these comprise 19 pages of the book -- and the milk recipes, at least, are pretty easy to find online.
The rest of the book is just a bunch of dairy-free recipes. That might sound good in theory, but there's nothing special about most of these recipes. Basically, you could substitute dairy-free milk (or cheese, or yogurt) for dairy milk (or cheese, or yogurt) in any existing recipe and you'd get recipes much like those in the book. I don't know about you, but I don't need a whole other cookbook just to tell me to substitute dairy-free X for the original dairy version of X. There are a couple exceptions, but not enough to make this worth the trouble, in my estimation. I was hoping for more information about how to, for instance, make a creamy sauce or soup without cream (not with a substitute cream). More about how to make various dairy alternative. Etc.
A lot of the recipes in the book also rely heavily on wheat and/or eggs. I know they're not a focus of this book, but a lot of people looking for information about dairy-free cooking are also needing to avoid wheat and/or eggs. (Dairy-free, wheat-free is a *very* common combination.) So it's a little disappointing that so few of the recipes are really workable for those who also need to avoid these other top allergens (and important to know, if that's you).
