The Canadian team of home economists-turned-authors brought us Best American Bread Machine Baking Recipes, Best Canadian Bread Machine Baking Recipes, 125 Best Quick Bread Recipes, Best Gluten-Free Family Cookbook, 250 Gluten-Free Favorites and others—and now they introduce their newest gem: Complete Gluten-Free Cookbook, 150 Gluten-Free, Lactose-Free Recipes, Many with Egg-Free Variations (Robert Rose). Dig into delish with recipes like old-fashioned donuts, sourdough bread and chicken stir-fry with mock soy sauce. (Recipes are in metric and imperial measurements.) The 317-page book also includes how-to sections on alternative flours and substitution ingredients (help for cooking without dairy, eggs), as well as a technique glossary. A boon for the newly diagnosed.
