Fantastic - food really tastes good!

By G. Swett - February 11, 2008

This is my first review but I had to write one because this book is fantastic! I have made five recipes in the past five days and my 5 year old son (with severe ulcerative colitis) has loved every single one (the rest of the family has loved the food too)! I own every SCD cookbook and this one seems to have the most recipes that are winners. So far, we have made: a chinese chicken dish (actually tastes like chinese chicken but without soy sauce- amazing); vietnamese pork (same); almond puff (tastes like cake!); chili-lime crackers (tastes like mild cheez-its!); and shortbread (buttery and tasty). We are going to keep trying recipes but love this cookbook and wanted to post this review while ordering another copy for my son's grandmom. Well worth adding to your library.

Yummy New SCD Cookbook

By Amy McKenna - February 28, 2008

I have a new favorite cookbook! It's "Recipes for the Specific Carbohydrate Diet" by Raman Prasad. Although the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD) includes lots of great food choices, it doesn't allow for dining at my favorite Asian and Indian restaurants. Raman's culturally diverse recipes are bursting with the flavors of the ethnic cuisines I've been missing. One of my favorites so far is Kung Pao Chicken, which is wonderfully flavored with Raman's SCD Asian Sauce (hurray for a yummy soy sauce substitute!). And in my opinion the Beef Vindaloo rivals some of the best Indian restaurants in our town. I love, love, love this cookbook's mouthwatering photography; the compelling foreword and introduction to the diet; and the personal touch of Raman's stories about food, family, and friends. I highly recommend this great cookbook for anyone who wants to add some pizzaz to their SCD fare.

olive oil is for low heat!

By Gwen "keep thinking" - April 26, 2012

I like a lot of this book, though so far I've only tried one recipe. There are a few big problems that apparent up front though. He recommends olive oil for nearly all cooking applications. This is Huge issue to me because it indicates two things 1. he doesn't know how to use fats in a healthy way and 2. he never actually cooked some of these things - or if he did he used another oil!

For those who haven't done a lot of cooking, and/or aren't familiar with the ins and outs of fats, here's important health information (especially important if you have gut disbiosis and need the SCD or GAPS). Every oil has a different flash point- that's a term for how much heat will denature the oil. Denatured fats become Trans-fats and other nasties! a very, very bad thing for any gut, but especially insideous in the gut of someone needing this diet! Olive oil has one of the lowest flashpoints of any oil out there and is generally recommended Raw. This author would have you Fry with it... read more
