My first choice for this category is the 'Gluten-Free Gourmet cooks comfort foods' By Bette Hagman
She is a phenomenal GF cook and this is her sixth book? or more?
It has a lot of helpful information about new flours and how to use them, and where to buy them as well as many tasty recipes, and nutritional info for each recipe like Calories , fat, cholesterol, sodium, Carbs, Protein and fiber, very important I think on a GF diet.
You can see the index and contents
here There are over 200 recipes in this book by Bette Hagman , Amount of them that are Kosher--134
Here's a partial owners review from Amazon
- Quote :
- Bette Hagman's books are lifesavers and Godsends and I have them all. She makes the art of cooking gluten free and keeping a gluten free kitchen easy, logical and workable. You don't have to separate the wheat from the chaff - just regard the wheat AS chaff and you are on your way to a gluten free lifestyle!
Cooks who follow Bette's methods do work - you will need several different types of flours to make breads and bread desserts, such as cakes. Be sure to freeze your foods because they won't last long. It is also a good idea to cook in portions so as to prevent food from going bad.
Thanks to Bette, I have learned about hemp bread for celiac disease and for anybody following a gluten/casein free regimen and Teff Flour.

hereI have gone through each recipe and judged by the following criteria if it can be made kosher without changing too much or eliminating too many of the main ingredients. If there is only bacon or cheese added in a small amount and recipe remains do-able without it, it is included in count. If just removing one item, even though Kosher ( like ground beef from the lasagna) will still allow it to be made and taste similar ( again like the lasagna with the remaining cheeses, but just eliminate the meat), or in other instances, recipes call for turkey or pork sausage. There are kosher turkey and other sausages available in some places so I added these in the count. Also many dishes call for butter which non Dairy marg. can be substituted for.
So out of her 200+ recipes I have found that the following can be cooked following all Kosher standards. The second number is those dishes in those categories that are vegan with just a change of chicken broth to veggie broth or same elimination of any meat products like for Kosher. NO cheese *(or use vegan cheese) no eggs either. The breads and desserts contain many eggs, which can be replaced with egg replacer by EnerG product
here So I have included in the count for the
Desserts and bread only if there are eggs that can be replaced, not dairy.
***I have been trying to find a Kosher chicken or vegan soup base for the one recipe but can't, anyone with info please let me know.
