This book is the best thing since sliced bread!
After searching high and low for a decent book on gluten free bread, I stumbled across this book and haven't looked back since. There are so many great receipes that are extremely easy to follow. You can't go wrong even if you are just a beginner. It also has receipes for egg free, lactose free, yeast free and many other allergy free variations.
This book is really all you need. The bread is a thousand times better than any gluten free bread that you can buy in the stores. Maybe the manufacturers should refer to Bette Hagman's receipes instead of their own!
Bette Hagman also has a 'Gluten-Free Gourmet Makes Dessert' book which is unbelievably fantastic.
With the help of Bette Hagman, suffering from Celiac Disease is no longer a reason to go without great bread, cookies, cakes and anything else you thought you would have to give up.
 Interesting recipes, but useless in the UK May 2, 2005

Problem with this book, which reads excellently, is that it relies on specialist suppliers of specialist flours and additives, many of which are unobtainable in the UK. In particular the 'garfava flour' - a bean flour derived from garbanzo beans (chick peas) and fava beans. According to the book this special flour is not merely a combination, but specially treated beans that are then made into flour. So, if in the US or Canada, probably worth having, otherwise forget it.
