This is a useful cookbook, with interesting information about a variety of grains, from farro and teff to the more commonly known barley and brown rice, along with cooking instructions. Excellent recipes (I actually copied a number of them, which is a thumbs up for the recipes themselves). Cooking instructions are easy to follow, as well. However, the design itself makes it the sort of cookbook I wouldn't buy . . . . it's styled too much like a technical manual . . . and the pastel colors, part...more

Anyone trying to incorporate more whole grains into their diet
I purchased this book last year after meeting the author at the IACP conference in New Orleans, and was recently drawn back to it in an effort to find more whole grain recipes for the Operation Frontline cooking classes I teach.

This book really is quite lovely and creative. My only problem with it is that there are not pictures of all the completed recipes. I'm not going to cook something unless I know what it looks like, for the most part.
This is one I've had hanging around the bookshelves for some time but never really used. Very good granola and granola bar recipes. The summer vegetable soup and rice timbales are also worth trying.
This is a wonderful cookbook: the layout is beautiful, the recipes healthful, and so far the few I have tried have turned out to be delicious.
Boring
Looks like a collection of tasty recipes. I've gone out and bought some of the grains to play with...hope they turn out well!
I love the concept of this book, but I'll admit: I've only made one thing from it, and I've owned it for over a year now. Good reference, but little used, more's the pity.
Try the Mexican Quinoa with Toasted Pepitas. Incredible. Also features an easy (and easily-modified) granola bar recipe.
