I see that this cookbook continues to trend high on Amazon Canada. Does anyone have it? Is it any good?

I just got it out of the library yesterday and have started to read it.  I'm not Celiac by any means, but who knows about that intolerance which so many people have and their health is much improved by giving up wheat.  

 

Have you read it?  Do you have any thoughts about it?

If there is anything noteworthy, please do share.

 

With a 5 year old with Celiac disease, I have had to drastically change how and what I cook, so always open to new and interesting ideas!

 

 

 

Are you familiar with Shauna Ahern's books?  example https://www.amazon.com/Gluten-Free-Girl-Found-Food-Loves/dp/0470411643 I don't have the issue nor does anyne I know but she is an excellent writer and an amazing lady. This is not food but it is really good https://diannej.com/2019/after-food-blogging-gluten-free-girls-shauna-ahern-says-enough/

I have the book but not the cookbook. After I learned I was diagnosed with gluten sensitivity (actual lab test), about 4½ years ago, I bought some cookbooks, but now that I've learned how to adapt, I hardly ever refer to them. These are the ones still on my shelf: 

Artisan Gluten-Free Bread in Five Minutes a Day 

The How Can It Be Gluten-Free Cookbook, Volume 1 and Volume 2 

 

 

"There is no sincerer love than the love of food."  -George Bernard Shaw, Man and Superman, Act 1

 

"Imagine all the food you have eaten in your life and consider that you are simply some of that food, rearranged."  -Max Tegmark, physicist

 

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

 

"...in the mid-’90s when the internet was coming...there was a tendency to assume that when all the world’s knowledge comes online, everyone will flock to it. It turns out that if you give everyone access to the Library of Congress, what they do is watch videos on TikTok."  -Neil Stephenson, author, in The Atlantic

 

"In questions of science, the authority of a thousand is not worth the humble reasoning of a single individual." -Galileo Galilei, physicist and astronomer
