For the estimated three million Americans suffering from Celiac disease, wheat allergies, and severe gluten sensitivities, Asian food is usually off-limits because its signature ingredients—noodles, soy sauce, and oyster sauce—typically contain wheat. In the Gluten-Free Asian Kitchen, food writer Laura B. Russell shows home cooks how to convert the vibrant cuisines of China, Japan, Korea, Thailand, and Vietnam into gluten-free favorites. 
 
Authentically flavored dishes such as Crispy Spring Rolls, Gingery Pork Pot Stickers, Korean Green Onion Pancakes, Soba Noodles with Stir-Fried Shiitake Mushrooms, Salt and Pepper Squid, and Pork Tonkatsu will be delicious additions to any gluten-free repertoire.
 
Along with sharing approachable and delicious recipes, Russell demystifies Asian ingredients and helps readers navigate the grocery store. Beautifully photographed and designed for easy weeknight eating, this unique cookbook’s wide range of dishes from a variety of Asian cuisines will appeal to the discriminating tastes of today’s gluten-free cooks.

      Those who keep to gluten-free diets may have written off Asian food, with all of its noodles, dumplings, and gluten-laden sauces. Russell (former associate editor, Food & Wine cookbooks) offers a thorough collection of classic Thai, Korean, Chinese, Japanese, and Vietnamese recipes, reworked to eliminate gluten. The recipes are written clearly, with illustrations that clarify some of the more complicated techniques, and Russell includes appetizers, noodle dishes, dumplings, beverages, and desserts. There is a helpful introduction to techniques, tools, and gluten-free ingredients in the Asian market. Many of the recipes simply substitute gluten-free brands of various ingredients, but Russell also includes easy recipes for creating your own versions, e.g., Nuoc Cham and Teriyaki Sauce. VERDICT This book proves that Asian food can accommodate a gluten-free diet, and it is an excellent introduction to Asian cooking even for those who don't have gluten allergies.--Laura Krier, California Digital Lib., Oakland

      Russell clearly understands the complexity of avoiding gluten in Asian cooking and ingredients for preparing Asian foods. This well-illustrated book includes a chart for identifying sources of gluten in common Asian ingredients and tips on where to find foods to stock a gluten-free Asian kitchen. (LJ 6/15/11)
