Book Reviews of Gluten-Free Baking Classics

Book Review: Yawn, More Flour Mixes Using Rice Flour....
Summary: 3 Stars

This book has a no nonsense title and a great looking layer cake on the cover. Inside Annalise starts with some good, sensible information on celiac disease and the role of wheat in modern western society. So far, so good.

Then you get to the recipes which are illustrated with dour black and white photographs of dry looking baked goods. Quickly turning to the recipes, lest I should be persuaded I had returned to the 1940's, I found yet more recipes based on rice flour mixes, flavoured with all the usual things. Vanilla cake, chocolate cake, lemon cake, coconut cake - the only difference being the flavouring. Annalise has made it simple for folks who just want one or two bags of flour in the house, but somewhere along the way, lost the excitement of new tastes and creativity in the kitchen.

The one departure is her muffin recipes which genuinely look interesting, once you bypass the fact that they all contain the same boring old rice flour mix as a base.

She does give a recipe for a mix conatining sorghum and millet that is used for making her breads and would be less disrupting to the blood sugar - maybe you could go crazy and use it for the cake recipes with some fruit sugar - just to mix it up a little?

With the incidence of diabetes in celiacs so much higher than the rest of the population - we need to start thinking about all this high GI stuff we are putting into our bodies. Cut down on the rice flour and sugar guys - it may be the one thing that helps you stave off diabetes.
