The Gluten Free Gourmet Bakes Bread Bette Hagman “The Gluten Free Bakes Bread is part of my cookbook collection because I am on a gluten free diet, and so it's actually a necessity if I want to eat things that are like bread — like regular bread that you buy at the store. My mother actually introduced this book to me, and it has a lot of great recipes that are suitable replacements, that are better than what you find in the store. The cookbook is set up pretty much like a regular old cookbook, but there are different flour mixes that — there are separate recipes for flour mixes, and then those flour mixes are used in specific recipes. For example, there is a flour mix that is used for a pizza dough that is also used to make pretzels and other things like that. So you can have a base flour mix that you can make a lot of and keep — in a sealed container, obviously — and then you can use it for the different things you want to make. My favorite recipe is the French bread pizza dough because you can make really good pizza dough with it; which is the thing I miss the most, oddly, of not having gluten is having pizza. It's not such a bad thing; it's only bad for me because I'm busy, and I'm a mother of two. That is some of the recipes are more labor intensive than a mother of two might have time for, so you really have to — well, I guess if you're gonna bake your own bread, you're gonna have a chunk of time for it anyway. I would recommend The Gluten Free Gourmet Bakes Bread — or the Gluten Free Gourmet; there's a regular cookbook, too — to anyone who needs to be on a gluten free diet or anyone who is sweet sensitive. I would give this book four stars out of five.”
