Format:Hardcover
This book is an invaluable resource for those with food allergies. The layout of the recipes gives you guidance to adapt each one to a range or combination of allergies and there are tips on how to get good results with the variations in ingredients. There is also a wealth of useful advice covering a range of areas such as eating away from home and alternative sources of nutrients and vitamins.
The recipes are a wonderful mix of contemporary style dishes and traditional staples and baking. For those like myself with a wheat allergy, the recipes for scones and pastry and other off-limits foods will be the first things tested from the book and to taste foods which do not require the normal compromises on flavour and texture is absolutely wonderful.
I cannot recommend this book highly enough!

At last, after all my tears and frustrations trying to make a gluten, dairy and nut-free bread, I have found a recipe that not only works but tastes delicious. The gluten-free white bread is a big hit with our four year old daughter and has made a huge difference to our lives as she can now have toast, sandwiches and rolls.
I feel like a proper mummy baking delicious cakes for the children which we can now all enjoy. I have also had great fun adapting various family recipes using Lucinda's techniques. Her book is a must for all people coping with the challenges of living with food allergies.
