Summary
There`s a lot to like about this book for anyone who is concerned about their starchy carb intake and wants to ease back on bread, pasta, potatoes etc. and also consumption of refined sugar. The book is well written, well presented with attractive photos and clearly laid out recipes. Each recipe comes with a little bit of personal backstory/explanation which is a nice touch and is kept to a length that these don`t become annoying, while the ingredients, portion sizes and cooking times are separated out nicely from the instructions to make it easy to follow.The recipes are grouped by style rather than course, and there is a section just on vegetarian. There also a section on `protein pots` which could be taken into work as an alternative to starchy sandwiches. There`s also on intro section on the benefits of lower starch diets. If you are up for a lower, but not very low carb diet and love all the fancy ingredients, this would be an ideal recipe book.
