Editorial Reviews

10/15/2018
The editors of America’s Test Kitchen deliver another solid recipe collection in this practical and immensely helpful cookbook for those living with diabetes. With nutritional information, notes from the test kitchen (including advice on buying the perfect hunk of parmesan, how to store spices, and favorite brands of staples, such as Reese capers), this book offers diabetic-friendly recipes designed to limit refined carbohydrates, sugars, saturated fats, and sodium. Those looking to create comfort-food standbys will find more than enough possibilities. Dishes such as spinach lasagna and cheesy shrimp and grits use reduced amounts of butter and full-fat dairy as well as aromatics and healthy oils to retain richness of flavor. To accompany high-protein, low-carb choices such as steak and chicken (they suggest flouring only one side of a chicken piccata), the editors have created an array of delicious pan-sauces, such as one made with porcini mushrooms and Marsala. Whole wheat ingredients are also favored by ATK, as they pack in stabilizing fiber and proteins to such carb-heavy comfort foods as carrot cake, blueberry muffins, and pancakes. This cookbook brims with variations for hundreds of recipes, offering a solid foundation for healthier cooking. (Nov.)

Diabetics and all health-conscious home cooks will find great information on almost every page, from pureeing soup to preparing avocados to learning everything there is to know about vinegars or eggs.
