Cooking Without Milk: More Than 400 Recipes for Those Who Suffer with Allergies or Intolerance to Milk and Milk By-Products lives up to its title with a cornucopia of delicious, easy-to-prepare recipes that avoid milk, dairy products, and lactose. From Oven Beef Stew to "Cream" of Vegetable or Mushroom soups (which use milk/lactose-free nondairy creamer instead of milk) to Rhubarb Custard Pie (which uses nondairy milk and butter substitutes) and much more, Cooking Without Milk is extremely user-friendly to cooks of all skill and experience levels. Of especial value are the tips and tricks scattered throughout for lactose-intolerance individuals, such as warning against any product packaged on the same line as dairy products, warnings to read the labels on items such as bouillon (which may contain milk sugars even though this might not seem obvious), suggestions on which dairy substitutes cook most effectively in which recipes, and much more. An absolute "must-have" for any household with lactose-intolerant residents!
