Book excerpt: Finalist in the 2007 Nautilus Awards. A "go-to" cooking and baking guide, this reference demonstrates how to use whole-grain spelt in all its forms. Containing over 200 recipes -- all keyed by blood-type diet notations -- in an easy-to-follow, 1-2-3 format, the cookbook provides guidelines and illustrations for the creation of a wide range of dishes, including bagels, biscuits, bread, calzones, pizza, and waffles. Beginning with an introduction to the ancient grain, the text examines spelt's heritage, composition, nutritional benefits, and appeal for those suffering from diabetes, food allergies, gluten intolerance, and other food sensitivities. A "Knead to Know" section presents tips on techniques for cooking and baking with spelt, such as how to measure and "fluff" the flour, gauge rising times and consistency of the dough, and test for readiness. Using the handy conversion tables, readers will also learn how to adapt their favorite recipes to substitute spelt for wheat.
