Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Not a local food choiceI bought this book because of the rave reviews found on Amazon. I was so disappointed when I got it. In an age where people need to get to local food rather than shipped food, this book is not the one to get. Its recipes require exotic ingredients grown in different parts of the world at different seasons. I found none of the receipes usuable for my local food needs and, indeed, my eating out of my garden needs. This book, for me, was a complete waste of money! It is a good buy for the upper income eschelons though, but for most of us, it is obsolete in an age of shipped food being too expensive to buy. Rating:  - Terrific Book with Awesome Ideas!This is one of the greatest cookbooks I have ever owned and I am so glad I found it! For anyone that needs a real crowd pleaser at picnics or parties, the Quinoa Butterscotch Brownies are absolutely superb and every time I make them people croon over how terrific they are. And for those that need it to be so, they are gluten free! They are not healthy by any means, if I remember right there are 2 sticks of butter in them, but they are delicious. Quinoa can be a little irritating to crush into flour in my blender but that is my blender's fault. The other recipes in this book are also terrific and I cannot wait to try the ones that I haven't made yet. She provides information on all of the grains at the beginning of each of their sections as well as a terrific mail order section at the back of the book for those that do not have ready access to these grains in their local grocery store. All in all I highly recommend this book as it is informative and the recipes are tasty. The way it is sectioned by grain is also quite helpful because I do not have something like Tef so if I want a quinoa recipe I don't have to go through tef ones first! Rating: - An Absolutely Fabulous Cookbook! A Must Have For Every Kitchen!This is an Outstanding Cookbook by Rebecca Wood! In this book you won't find much for pictures, it's strong point is the wonderful recipes for Grains with Vegetables, Fish, Poultry, Meat and Fruit. I love it when reviewers list a variety of recipes in a book, that alone will make me want to purchase a book! The Contents are divided into categories such as Native American Grains which include Wild Rice, Corn, Mesquite, Amaranth, and Quinoa. Native Asian Grains which include Buckwheat, Millet, Rice, and Job's Tears. Native Near Eastern Grains which include Barley and Wheat. Native European Grains which include Rye and Oats. And Native African Grains which include Sorghum and Tef. This book also includes Mail Order Sources if needed. There are 394 Pages of information and Fabulous Recipes such as: Wild Rice Tortillas With Poached Huevos Rancheros and Ginger-Peach Salsa, Elderberry Blossom and Wild Rice Griddle Cakes with Hot Apple Syrup, Mom's Wild Rice Stuffing, Whitefish Stuffed With Wild Rice, Traditional Grits, Cornmeal Mush, Posole From Scratch, Creole Corn Oysters, Corn and Clam Chowder with Roasted Parsnips, Herbed Posole Salad with Dried Cranberries, Stir-Fried Dried Scallops with Baby Corn and Bean Sprouts, Southwestern Cheese Sandwiches with Sweet and Hot Pepper Sauce, Greens and Herbed Cornmeal Dumplings with Roasted Red Pepper Sauce, Honey Carmel Corn with Roasted Almonds, Sage and Blue Corn Skillet Bread with Fresh Corn, Santa Fe Spoon Bread, Corn Tortillas with Marjoram, Chili Flavored Tortilla Chips, Corn and Quinoa Raspberry Muffins, Hominy Breakfast Cakes, Strawberry and Blue Corn Waffles, Popped Amaranth Cold Breakfast Cereal, Pinon Crackers, Quinoa and WInter Squash Potage, Quinoa Soup-Saigon Style, Quinoa Carrot Cake, Quinoa Butterscotch Brownies, Homemade Buckwheat Noodles, Jicama and Buckwheat Salad, Panfried Buckwheat Breaded Catfish, Baked Blinis with Strawberry Sauce, Buckwheat Rolls with Thyme and Oregano, Buckwheat Waffles with Peach Butter, Buckwheat Pumpkin Muffins, Overnight Millet Buckwheat and Coconut Waffles, Apricot Millet Breakfast Cake, Vietnamese Spring Rolls, Chinese Almond Cookies, Purple Amasake, Barley Poppy Bagels, Barley Flatbread with New Mexican Chilies, Yellow and Purple Bean Tabbouleh, Eggplant Zucchini Tofu and Penne Salad, Dutch Apple Pie, Wheat Pastry for Pies and Tarts, Pueblo Bread Pudding, 100% Whole Wheat Bread, Thin-Crust Pizza, Easy Rye Bread, Boston Brown Bread, Pumpernickel Bread with Currants and Walnuts, Coarse-Grain Sourdough Rye, Cream of Shiitake and Broccoli Soup, Irish Tabbouleh, Orange and Coconut Drop Biscuits, Oat Groat Pancakes, Granola, Vegetable Stock, Chicken Stock, Fish Stock, Shiitake Dashi Stock, Tofu Mayonnaise, and so much more! This is just a sampling of the Varieties of Recipes you'll find in this book. I felt it was important especially in this book of Grains to list many recipes, as you can see these Healthy Grains can be much more than a side dish! You cannot go wrong with this cookbook! If you are looking for different ways to use grains this is definitely the book for you! Rating: - Awesome resource!!I initially checked this book out at the library and just had to have my own copy. The author has done years of research and provides very detailed and interesting information about various grains to include their origins, historical uses and various methods of preparation. There is also a section detailing little-known places where you can order seeds to grow your own or purchase ready to use grains/grain products. This book should be in every home cookbook collection!
