The Very Hungry Celiac: All the Foods You Love Made GLUTEN-FREE by Melanie Persson
If you thought that celiac disease or gluten intolerance meant saying goodbye to your favorite foods—think again. In The Very Hungry Celiac, Melanie Persson, the first celiac contestant on MasterChef Australia, proves that gluten-free cooking can be indulgent, delicious, and just as good as traditional recipes. As a passionate food lover diagnosed with celiac disease in her twenties, Mel set out on a mission to recreate the dishes she thought were out of reach forever.
With 75 incredible gluten-free recipes, this cookbook features an array of dishes that will satisfy every craving—from delicate pastries to rich, springy noodles and fluffy cakes, all reimagined in gluten-free form. Whether you're looking to recreate Italian classics, Japanese comfort food, or decadent desserts, Mel’s culinary expertise makes it all possible.
In her debut cookbook, Mel shares her culinary journey and expertise, having spent years in her kitchen perfecting gluten-free versions of beloved dishes like fresh pasta, udon noodles, baklava, and even the perfect croissant. The result is a collection of recipes that are indistinguishable from their gluten-based counterparts, providing both texture and flavor that rivals the originals.
