Book Reviews of The 125 Best Gluten-Free Recipes
Book Review: Big disappoitment!
Summary: 2 Stars
This was my first Gluten free cookbook when I was diagnosed with Celiac spruce. I believed in the reviews and thought that I was getting the best GF book around. Big disappointment! When I didn't know any better, I thought I would just have to get used to crumbly bread and hard, dry, completely pale muffins. What a surprise when I borrowed Bette Hagman books from the library! There's not comparison! Hagnman's book are far superior and her knowledge of Gluten Free ingredients proves that the best GF cookbooks are written by Celiacs, not cooks who are just curious about GF cooking and experimenting with alternative flours. The good reviews for this book must have been written by the authors' friends.
There are a few good recipes in the book (brownies, pie crust), but the muffins and bread where just horrible, almost inedible. Some of the beautiful pictures in the book are misleading . The orange cranberry muffins shown are golden on top and speckled with red cranberries inside, but the recipe says to use cranberry juice. I knew that would produce totally red muffins so I used orange juice instead. Still the result was a hard block of rice flour that crumbles when you bite on it. The top never browned.
I am an experienced professional chef, and I would not recommend this book. If you are looking for good Gluten Free cookbooks look for Bette Hagman's and Carol Fenster's books.
