An excellent wheat/gluten-free cookbook. - By: , 25 Nov 1998 
Ms. Hagman's three Gluten-Free Gourmet cookbooks have been a godsend to me. Not only have I been happy with all of her recipes, but I have learned from her cookbooks how to experiment with various gluten-free flours to adapt favorite recipes to be "safe" for me on a more restricted diet. _More from the Gluten-Free Gourmet_ is Ms. Hagman's second book, & the firstin which she offers recipes to be madein a bread machine. I would strongly recommend purchasing all three of her cookbooks, but if one only wants to buy - or to start with - one book, I feel that this would be the most helpful one. Enjoy!
Delicious recipes that taste like they have gluten but don't - By: , 06 Dec 1997 This & Bette Hagman's other books were the first I could find that had gluten-free recipes that REALLY tasted like they were real wheat products. I no longer feel deprived because I can make my own fresh pasta, cakes, breads, & cookies that taste delicious. Also particularly wonderful are the instructions for how to substitute when using other recipes so I've been able to adapt recipes from other cookbooks.
A must have for people with Celiac Disease - By: , 01 Aug 1997 I purchased this book shortly after being diagnosed with Celiac Disease a disorder that requires a drastic changein diet. The Celiac is not able to have any wheat, rye, oats or barley,(GLUTEN containing grains). The diaticiansin my area of Maine were only able to provide me with 3-4 pages of information & recipes on a diet I must maintain for life. This book has been a lifesaver. The foods are easy to prepare & tasty enough that my gluten eating family members enjoy the meals & breads I make.
