Book Reviews of The Stevia Cookbook: Cooking with Nature's Calorie-Free SweetenerBook Review: Sweet Satisfaction Summary: 5 Stars
Here's a book that tells you everything you need to know in an organized format, anticipates and answers your questions and concerns, tells you the truth about what stevia can and cannot do, so you avoid disappointments. In addition, the authors give you options of using all stevia, mixing with other sweetners, or using only sugar in some recipies. As a healthy eater, I have been using alternative natural sweetners for years (Dr. Bonner's Barleymalt Sweetner, for example), yet never was there a cookbook. Dr. Bonner's stopped making their sweetner, so I am on to stevia and the recipies in this book are fabulous. Buy it for the tantalizing salad dressings alone. Not only are the recipes good, they are unique, like the cucumber salad and the Green and White Jade Salad. As a vegetarian who does not eat eggs, I was so happy to see an egg-free, no-bake pumpkin pie recipe! Yum! Sugar does so many awful things to our bodies and our minds, it serves everyone to at least give the stevia product and this marvelous cookbook a chance. PS Even if you fail to fall in love with stevia, buy this book for the recipes and substitute other sweetners, which they suggest.
