The book food lovers with diabetes have been waiting for: a
through-the-menu collection of 250 dishes to meet any
craving, from hot and spicy to sweet and sour, from creamy
to crunchy, from pastas to dessert. Written by Tom Valenti,
one of America's Ten Best Chefs (Food & Wine) and a
"clairvoyant in the kitchen" (Ruth Reichl, The New York
Times)—and a diabetic—You Don’t Have To Be
Diabetic To Love This Cookbook is filled with recipes so
delicious, so imaginative, so varied and enticing that it
will turn the burden of following a diabetic regimen into a
celebration of food.
In fact, this is food for
everyone in the family to sit down and enjoy, with no
penalty to the non-diabetics. Valenti employs innovations
and techniques that are a signature of his cuisine—acid to
brighten flavors, unexpected combinations of texture and
temperature, turkey bacon as a foundation ingredient to add
a haunting smoky-salty quality—and he never resorts to
imitation products. Recipes include Asparagus and Mushroom
Risotto; Chicken Chaat; Filet Mignon with Black and Green
Peppercorn Sauce; Snapper Piccata; Grilled Duck Breast
Paillard with Orange, Onion, and Mint; Lamb Sausage with
Warm Potato Salad; Shrimp and Tomato Ravioli; Goat Cheese
Cake; Banana Mousse; Miniature Pumpkin Pies.
Real
flavors, real food, and finally, real pleasure, for
America's 23.6 million diabetics.
