Guest guest Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 >>>My subject line says it all, I guess! My favorite gluten-free " cookbook " is the one we've written as a group here on Vegan and Gluten Free. Our files section has all our recipes, catagorized and filed for ease of use. Whenever I need a recipe, I use the VGF files from my laptop that's sitting on the kitchen counter --- and cook away! I do have other gluten-free cookbooks, though --- most aren't vegan. What are favorites of other list members? ~ LaDonna Our vegan and gluten free recipes are available in the archives for this group or at the following URL (***Recipes Posted to VGF***): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 I'm really bad, I go to a certain large book store and grab a few gluten-free cookbooks and find one or two recipes and copy them down ... I don't have lots of time to bake and i'm sorta cheap! I do own one though, it's called *Healthy Gluten-Free Cooking* by Darina Allen and Rosemary Kearney. I've used several of the baking recipes. It does contain a lot of complicated 5 part pot pie/souffle' type recipes though (things I generally don't have time to fix or want to eat alone!). Oh, and it's not vegan... but if you'd like a recipe for irish soda bread, let me know and i'll copy it down for ya Marie =) http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?z=y & EAN=978158479424\ 0 & itm=37 On 1/24/07, La Tea Dah <teacups wrote: > > >>>My subject line says it all, I guess! > > My favorite gluten-free " cookbook " is the one we've written as a group > here > on Vegan and Gluten Free.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 My favorite right now is *Food Allergy Survival Guide* by Vesanto Melina, Jo Stepaniak, and Dina Aronson. It has a wide variety of vegan recipes plus a lot of valuable nutrition information. I wish I could find a good cookbook for using the GF whole grains in baking: quinoa flour, millet flour, sorghum flour, teff flour, etc. If I can't find it, I might have to write it!

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 I decided to put all my favourite recipes online so I always know where they are - you are welcome to help yourself at http://www.damefandango.com/vhomepage.htm <http://www.damefandango.com/vhomepage.htm> They are vegan and wheat-free so you'd better check over each recipe to make sure there isn't anything there that would cause you a problem - but I tend to cook as many things as I can from scratch so it shouldn't be too difficult.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 I wish you would write that book for baking. We have a hard time finding GF and vegan at the same time. And if I do find a few recipes to try, they don't always go over very well with my middle child. He's the one I am the most worried about, too. He is so very skinny, I don't need him going on hunger strikes..... I am very frustrated right now. I need to look up this other cookbook you have written. I am sure it's wonderful.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 Ditto to what LaDonna said. The " Files " section here is my favourite recipe book. All the recipes are vegan and GF, and we have thousands of them. I do have other books and occasionally use a recipe or 2 from them, but I know I can almost always find what I'm looking for here. I do also tend to post my favourites here too so that I know where to find them. Last nights dinner was made enirely from recipes we have in the Files. - Cashew Carrot Festive Roast (SF) - Mushroom Sauce - Cheez Potatoes (SF) - Broccoli in Red Pepper Sauce (*SF) - Carrots Lyonnaise (SF) I go to the simply go to site ( ) and then print off the recipes. That way I don't end up with food all over my recipe books. Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 I like Carol Fenster's " Cooking Free " -she doesn't use much rice flour which works for me. And she has lots of suggestions for cooking without dairy and eggs and other allergy kinds of things.

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 Thanks, everyone! I realize I should have looked at the files before asking. I'll definitely look into all the books and web sites mentioned. While I'm spending money at Amazon, any favorite " coping with gluten- free life " books? Also, what do people think of Dangerous Grains? I was thinking about getting that one. Oh, it is dangerous when I start ordering books ...

I've never baked bread completely from scratch before and so I'm nervous. I've been reading advice about gluten-free breadmaking, but they all seem to assume you have experience with making regular bread. What sort of equipment do I need? I have a breadmaker. Plus a mixer that has dough hooks (I've never used them) -- but it is about 25 years old and everytime it does anything difficult, it makes unhappy noises. I wish the thing would just break and then I could justify buying something new and powerful. I should like Irish Soda Bread since I'm part Irish, but I don't know if I've ever had it. I recently tried the Colcannon recipe from Marla's web site (every one I've tried so far has been wonderful BTW) -- http://vegsource.com/marla/colcannon.html. The bread would go with it, no? I was planning on trying a vegetarian haggis for Burns Day tonight (Scottish being another part of my heritage), but we're going out to a lecture and so eating out. If anyone is interested in the recipes I found (I hadn't decided which one to go with), I'll be glad to post the links. But you do have to have oats in it or it is too far from the original to be called haggis. So those of you avoiding oats, never mind. I seem to be able to eat them.
