Good to the Grain - Baking with Whole-Grain Flours

Kim Boyce, Amy Scattergood

Sinossi

The James Beard Foundation Award-winning cookbook “that explores the landscape of whole-grain flours, with deliciousness as its guiding principle” (The Oregonian). 
 
Baking with whole-grain flours used to be about making food that was good for you, not food that necessarily tasted good, too. But Kim Boyce truly has reinvented the wheel with this collection of seventy-five recipes that feature twelve different kinds of whole-grain flours, from amaranth to teff, proving that whole-grain baking is more about incredible flavors and textures than anything else.  
 
When Boyce, a former pastry chef at Spago and Campanile, left the kitchen to raise a family, she was determined to create delicious cakes, muffins, breads, tarts, and cookies that her kids (and everybody else) would love. She began experimenting with whole-grain flours, and Good to the Grain is the happy result. The cookbook proves that whole-grain baking can be easily done with a pastry chef’s flair. Plus, there’s a chapter on making jams, compotes, and fruit butters with seasonal fruits that help bring out the wonderfully complex flavors of whole-grain flours. 
 
“This is the book we’ve been waiting for. A cookbook that takes all those incredible flours with names like amaranth and kamut that have started appearing in stores, and tells us what to do with them.” —Kitchn 
 
“Thanks to Kim Boyce’s Good to the Grain, we’ve got a whole new range of flavors to play with—she’s inspired us to put a little whole wheat into our cookies, a little spelt in our cake, and to always remember to make our food taste, above all, more of itself.” —Food52

Plant-Based High-Protein...

Arnold Lewis

If You Want To Receive A Sufficient Amount Of Safe Proteins And Essential Plant-Based Nutrients, Then Listen On. 
You're probably eating plant-based foods, such as pea proteins or nuts, assuming that you're getting the full variety of proteins that your body needs, but you may not realize that you often miss the essential amino acid known as lysine and that you don't assimilate the right amount of proteins. 
Normally, one of the first questions vegans are asked is how they get protein, because animal foods are considered by many to be the best source of protein— and some people think they are the only protein-containing foods. 
You must be prepared in advance to ensure that adequate amounts of nutritious proteins, vitamins, iron and calciumB-12 are obtained, not as easily found in vegan diets as in omnivorous diets containing meat rich in these nutrients. 
Nevertheless, with the best plant-based protein foods, you can eat well-balanced nutritional plans that maintain a healthy body and reduce the risk of certain illnesses. 
The audiobook will give you a full understanding of nutrition, including how much you really need, and how to get more than enough of plant foods. Armed with the details, recipes and meal plans in this book, you'll be relaxed and safe as a vegan— and have answers to those questions. 
The audiobook is also for vegetarians and meat eaters, since focusing more on the plant side of your plate is always a good thing, and you might be curious about how healthy your vegan friends can be without food. 
This audiobook is a plant-based protein guide that gives you the best resources you need to help you eat healthy meatless high-protein foods and feel better about your plant-based lifestyle.
