Publisher Marketing: A NATIONAL BESTSELLER At last, a gluten-free spotlight on Asian flavors, with plenty of plant-based, dairy-free, vegetarian, and pescatarian options! Anyone who eats (or cooks) a gluten-free diet understands the struggles of avoiding gluten. In East Asian and Southeast Asian foods especially, gluten is hard to avoid: it's embedded in integral staples like soy sauce and gochujang and foundational foods like noodles and dumplings. But the struggle is over! In My Best Friend Is Gluten-Free, you'll find completely gluten-free recipes that celebrate a spectrum of Asian flavors. Inspired by her celiac husband and wanting to share foods from her Chinese-Canadian upbringing with him, Jannell Lo set out to create gluten-free options for her favorite recipes, plus some creative takes of her own. Designing flavorful and inclusive dishes let Jannell explore her own cultural identity through food in new and meaningful ways. The result: this cookbook, with chapters that include salads and fresh bites in Tossed & Assembled, satisfyingly saucy pairings in Nice with Rice, crispy stir-fries in Fried & Sizzled, and easy Sweet Treats with textural flair. My Best Friend Is Gluten-Free is exciting for all eaters, gluten-free or not, with:
With eye-catching illustrations and vibrant photos, My Best Friend Is Gluten-Free is an accessible and fun exploration of a world typically off-limits to gluten-free eaters. Finally, you can make your favorite Asian dishes at home. |
