Grain truly is the staff of life--tasty, versatile, and highly
nutritious. This terrific and comprehensive cookbook offers authentic,
eclectic, homespun recipes that showcase a variety of different grains
at their best, whether on their own or cooked with vegetables or meat.
From the familiar oat to exotic ancient crops, The Whole Grain Cookbook
celebrates the good eating offered by 20 different whole grains:
amaranth, quinoa, corn (maize), wheat, spelt, QK-77, triticale, rye,
oats, rice, barley, millet, teff, sorghum, fonio, buckwheat, chickpeas,
beans and peas, seeds, and nuts. Also included is information on how to
store whole grain and how to grind your own meal and flour with a home
milling machine (as with coffee and pepper, freshly ground grains are
more flavorful, and less expensive, than store-bought). Appetizing,
informative, and uncomplicated, this is a resource you'll return to
again and again.
