About the Book

Imagine growing up with a father known for his rich, Louisana-style cooking who instilled you with a love and appreciation of food from the very start-- the centerpiece of every memory is food. Now image literally not being able to eat his dishes anymore.
This is what happened to Jessie and Jilly Lagasse. In 2001 and 2004 respectively, the girls were diagnosed with gluten allergies. They had to learn to adjust, which meant changing the way they ate, the way they cooked, learning to plan ahead, and paying attention to ingredients in new ways. For example, traditional New Orleans gumbo relies on roux-- a flour and fat base. After years of experimentation and searching, finally, Jessie and Jilly have figured out how to make this and so many other recipes gluten-free
While there are many more gluten-free products on the market now than ever before, sometimes you just want a home-cooked meal. This cookbook provides a well-balanced base of recipes that can add flavor and enjoyment to the menus of even the pickiest or most demanding of gluten-free eaters. With appetizers, soups, salads, sides, entrees, and desserts, there is something for everyone in THE GLUTEN FREE TABLE. Based equal parts on family favorites, Southern classics, and Jessie and Jilly's own adventures, recipes include:
-Sweet and Sticky Chicken Drumsticks
-Hearty Ham and Butterbean Soup
-Jalapeno and Cheddar Cornbread
-Slow Cooked Rosemary Chicken with Apples
-Sweet Maple Syrup Johnycakes
-and many, many more
The Lagasse girls will teach you that a Gluten-free diet is nothing to be scared of. With a little bit of inventiveness and perseverance, you can find joy and triumph in a gluten-free diet-- and you won't feel like you're missing a thing
