Joy of cooking

by:Rombauer, Irma S., 1877-1962

Since its original publication, Joy of Cooking has been the most authoritative cookbook in America - the one upon which millions of cooks have confidently relied for more than sixty-five years. This, the first revision in more than twenty years, is better than ever. Here's why:. Every chapter has been rethought with an emphasis on freshness, convenience, and health. All the recipes have been reconceived and tested with an eye to modern taste, and the cooking knowledge imparted with each subject enriched to the point where everyone from a beginning to an experienced cook will feel completely supported. The new Joy provides more thorough descriptions of ingredients, from the familiar to the most exotic. An all-new "RULES" section in many chapters gives essential cooking basics at a glance. Separate new chapters on grains, beans, and pasta include recipes for grits, polenta, pilafs, risottos, vegetarian chilis, bean casseroles, and make-ahead lasagnes. New baking and dessert chapters promise to enhance Joy of Cooking's reputation as a bible for bakers. Little Dishes showcases foods from around the world: hummus, baba ghanoush, bruschetta, tacos, empanadas, and fried wontons. All new drawings of techniques, ingredients, and equipment, integrated throughout an elegant new design, and over 300 more pages round out the new Joy. Among this book's other unique features: microwave instructions for preparing beans, grains, and vegetables; dozens of new recipes for people who are lactose intolerant and allergic to gluten; expanded ingredients chart now features calories, essential vitamins, and levels of fats and cholesterol. There are ideas for substitutions to lower fat in recipes and reduced-fat recipes in the baking sections.

by:Brown, Marlisa

Gluten intolerance is the inability to properly digest wheat, rye, and barley. One of the benefits of recent extensive research into diet has been the identification of this pervasive food ingredient as a contributor to a myriad of health problems, from diabetes and arthritis to cancer and digestive difficulties. "Gluten-Free, Hassle Free" makes it easy to begin gluten-free eating, cooking, and living. Structured around a three-step process -- Making the Change; Making Gluten-Free Living Simple; and Making Your Life Healthy, Happy, and Uncomplicated -- the book offers expert guidance on the practical and emotional aspects of the new lifestyle, from reading labels and stocking a gluten-free kitchen to dining out without stress, handling feelings of anger and frustration.
