4/5 stars

Lovely although a little complex... (0/0 people found this helpful)

A well balanced array of recipes in all. The recipes call for a myriad of ingredients, I make a fab Vicky sponge just substituting normal SR flour for Gluten Free SR flour and I also substitute butter as my hubby and I are also allergic to dairy. I need a recipe book that I can whip up something from when I get home from work. This is a good book for impressing a gluten free sceptic with though! As with most recipe books you need to use this in conjunction with your own recipes.

Some super tips (10/11 people found this helpful)

This is a good book, as it encourages the reader to use normal ingredients rather than prepacked mixes, and offers recipes for basics which I never imagined I could substitute. Some of the highlights include the great tip of using rice paper wrappers as a crunchy coating for fish (you won't miss batter), the soda bread recipe, and the breakfast health bar which went down a treat - no-one guessed there was anything odd about it, and it's the first time I have cooked with rice flakes. In fact, this book allows you to cook for yourself and others, without things tasting odd or artificial. Although many of the recipes are too high in fat for me (this applies to Irish cookery in general), I have successfully reduced the fat in all cases.

4/5 stars

No need to adjust any recipe! (10/11 people found this helpful)

I have been gluten free for 15 years now, and nearly every book I have bought on the subject turned out "acceptable food",( it's amazing what becomes acceptable on this diet!!) but many recipes have needed altering. This is the only recipe book, and I've had a lot,that needs no recipe alterations to turn out good food that everyone in the family enjoys. No more doing two of everything. The scones are absolutely ace, everyone loves them. It took a while to get tapioca flour at a decent price, but finally found it on a Thai food website.

5/5 stars

Normal At Last! (16/17 people found this helpful)

When I was informed that my ailments were down to a Gluten (Gliadin) intollerance, I was relieved but concerned about how it would affect my everyday meals. Research kept pointing me towards this cookbook, which I finally purchased. What a joy. I am an avid cook so I was prepared for some complicated recipes ... but that didn't happen. The ingredients list for a recipe may seem daunting but there is nothing difficult about the method - in fact the methods used are pretty much the same as any good recipe book. I found that large Tesco and Waitrose stock the ingredients required.
I'm a big fan of yorkshire pudding (it's in the blood) and was scepticle that there could be any gluten free version, let alone the delicious recipe in this book (worth a sainthood in my view!). The pastry recipes are also brilliant. I've had success with every recipe tried so far and as an added bonus, my family have really enjoyed eating the same meals as me instead of opting for gluten versions.
