A Quality Cookbook Amidst a Lot of Mediocre Ones

I recently have had to become gluten and dairy free. Since I have always done my own cooking and baking from scratch it naturally meant I'd have to learn some new skills. Behavioral research tells us it takes 10,000 hours to gain beginning mastery over a newly acquired skill. Think apprenticeship hours. Since a lot of skills transfer if one is already in an adjacent activity, I figured it should only take about 500 to become proficient at gluten-dairy free cooking.

In doing my research and practice, towards acquiring my hours, I've discovered that like any other type of books, these specialty cookbooks aren't all equal. And many authors copy from each other, often repeating an error as proof of their amateur standing. One example is the use of a pre-cooked flour and milk slurry being called a "roux" by many authors, when in fact, it is a "blanc mange." These are the author's whose skills and imaginations are limited at best and so their products are limited - in the kitchen and in their writing.

In contrast is this book by Audrey Roberts. It gives me everything I look for in a cookbook, especially an e-book. This includes a table of contents, an index, good quality photos, interesting recipes, tempting combinations of ingredients, variety of recipes, scientific and dietary background, glossaries of ingredients by type, measurements and equivalents.

I'm looking forward to trying out the bagel recipe later this week and getting the last of my 500 hours.

Loved this easy to use cookbook! If you are trying to eat healthier this is a good place to start. Fish Taco recipe was really easy & delicious.

Everything I’ve made from this has been delish, especially the curry chicken thighs and the balsamic chicken.

This is a good book, but I was disappointed. Many recipes substituted gluten-free flours for wheat flours and dairy-free milks for dairy milk. I have already gotten experience with those substitutions - like needing extra liquid, or needing extra fats, or how the slightly changed flavor might call for extra spices. So, I was hoping for more recipes that didn’t need gluten-free flour or dairy-free milk. I cannot use most dairy-free milk options other than coconut milk. I intend to try some of the recipes that look tasty. Other recipes are similar to ones I came up with from substitutions. This is a book I would give to someone who wants a cookbook for just starting out as gluten-free and dairy-free.

This book sounded like the perfect book for our family (Celiac and lactose intolerants), so I really wanted to like this book.
I ordered it and kept it through several book purges, but this last purge, it wound up on the give away pile - because it hardly has any photos!
I realized that I really want pictures in my cookbooks (I guess I have a lack of imagination food-wise).
I only tried one of the recipes and decided that it was something I would have easily found on-line and not bother trying to find it in this book.
I think I would like it better if it cut back on the number of recipes in favor of adding photos - just my opinion.

There's some good, and some bad recipes in here. But i definitely needed this book in order to start this diet and open my eyes to so many different foods that are still good.
