Take the hard work out of gluten-free cooking Cook hassle-free,
everyday recipes Enjoy meals from bestselling gluten-free author
See a photo with EVERY recipe Joy, the author of the bestselling
cookbook "NOSH for Students", started writing for friends who had
requested gluten-free recipes. Interestingly, during the process of
writing her first gluten-free book, Joy, herself, discovered she
was intolerant to gluten. Joy has now written 4 cookbooks, all
dedicated to helping others in this challenging world of
gluten-free living.
Letter from JoyI discovered that I was 'gluten intolerant' a couple
of years ago whilst I was writing 'Nosh Gluten-Free'. Friends had
asked me to write a gluten-free book, but during the process, I
realised that the stomach pains, which I had thought were due to
medication I was taking, were significantly relieved when I cut out
gluten from my diet. I was glad to find the cause of the problem,
but knew that this would make life challenging! So I began my
journey of gluten-free living with the book 'NOSH Gluten-Free' to
help me and now I have added this latest book, 'NOSH Gluten-Free
Baking'. I have to be frank and say that the 'Baking' book has been
the hardest book I have ever written; I have never had to deal with
so many failed attempts in all my years of cooking! For instance,
bread depends on gluten for its elasticity and 'bounce'. I must
have made about 50 different breads, all of which ended up in the
bin, before coming up with the new ones in this book, and my quest
still goes on to find more. During the process of writing this
book, one of the highlights would definitely be the puff pastry
recipe. When that pastry came out of the oven, with its distinct,
crispy layers, I could have done a little jig in the kitchen, right
there and then! When we find we are gluten intolerant, or
'coeliac', it can seem like a 'life sentence of no treats'. We go
into a cafe for coffee and cake and often find there is nothing we
can eat - all the 'yummy'-looking ones are full of gluten! My aim
in this book has been to reverse the 'sentence'. I have tried to
include recipes for the many things we might like to eat in the
coffee shops, as well as the regular desserts and savoury pastries
that seemed to be 'forbidden'. I hope that you enjoy cooking and
eating many of these re-found treats.

While 4% of the population suffers from diagnosed lactose
intolerance, it is estimated that a staggering 50 million Americans
suffer from some degree of dairy intolerance/allergy. Moreover,
recent research has linked milk protein (casein) to cancer and
autoimmune illnesses and found evidence that our bodies quit making
the enzymes necessary to digest milk as we age--thus setting up
those who consume a dairy-rich diet for IBS, allergies and other
autoimmune and digestive difficulties. Dairy has become the "new
gluten"--something that people are realizing needs to be minimized
in our diet whether they have a formally diagnosed allergy or not.

In the UK in 2012 an estimated 60,000 people had their gallbladder
removed because of gallstones and over 2010-2012 the figure for
Ireland was nearly 20,000. This number has been increasing year on
year into a virtual epidemic, almost certainly related to
contemporary high sugar/fructose diets. But it is fats that bring
on gallstone symptoms - `gallbladder colic', said to be one of the
most acutely painful experiences we can have. While seeking
treatment for gallstones, the only way to avoid this pain is to
follow a no-fat or very low-fat diet so that the gallbladder is not
stimulated into action. But how to change the habits of a life
time? Juliet Sullivan has been on that journey and shares what she
has learned along the way (now in an expanded second edition),
including what worked for her and the recipes she developed that
saw her through to surgery and beyond. With star ratings for fat
levels, her guidance is quick and easy to follow and provides
low-fat alternatives of family favourites - from a roast dinner to
spag bol - so sufferers can eat with family and friends and not
feel excluded on account of their medical problem. As many
reviewers have said, this book is like getting advice from a close
friend with whom you have a shared experience.
