Recover taste and texture when you lose gluten as the glue
Basically, unless you know what you are doing, most gluten-free cooking is a miserable thing to inflict on your friends and loved ones. Given a choice, serve MRE's instead of serving gluten-free. Not that MRE's are gluten-free, but they certainly taste a whole lot better. One thing about most gluten-free cooking is that the recipients will definitely lose weight from pushing the plate as far away as possible.
Or, get this book and follow the recipes exactly to turn wonky-tasting funny-feeling cookery into gastronomic wonders. I purchased this for my spousal kitchen unit when she finally admitted she had no idea whatsoever how to make gluten-free meals worthy of serving. This confession came from a woman who is a master in the kitchen with gluten. Bottom line, she has been using this book as her Glutenberg Bible; and from the perspective of the guy at the table I must say the quality of my life has taken a quantum leap for the better. One nice thing about this book is it explains the "why" behind specific steps and ingredients that are to be used.
As a final BTW for meat-eaters, you also want the words of wisdom found in The Cook's Illustrated Meat Book. Same company, same magic instructions. Naturally, there are gluten products employed in the Meat Book, but don't despair. Between these two books you will be running salivating to the table when you hear "Gluten's Gone, Food is On!"
