Reviews about this book

  • Boston Globe by T. Susan Chang

    ...may not...be the whole-grains cookbook that will change your life, assure your longevity, and hand you the keys to the heaven of righteous eaters. But at the moment, I can’t think of a better one.

  • Epicurious

    ...their writing is both informative, personal, and inflected with humor--all of which should make the topic more enjoyable to read about, and hopefully eat.

  • The Miami Herald

    The book focuses on adding “real” foods like whole grains to one’s diet rather than cutting foods out.

    ...packed with tempting vegetarian and vegan recipes (though not limited to them; you'll also see meat-and-grain stews, casseroles, and the like) ...will have you looking at grains in a whole new way.

  • Los Angeles Times

    ...catalog of whole-grain main dish inspiration - and not just with the recipes. In today's perky, polka dot-covered, food blog writing era, (authors) are forthright with their picadillo opinions...

Publishers Text

We all know that choosing whole grains over processed ingredients is better for our health, yet the likes of millet, quinoa, and barley are still stuck on the culinary side-lines. Bruce Weinstein and Mark Scarbrough bring these unheralded culinary superstars to the centre of the plate, with more than 100 recipes showing that their range of textures and flavors is greater than any other food group, they're incredibly versatile, they're economical, and they can anchor a meal. Readers will be surprised at how easily and creatively whole grains can be used as the base for breakfast, dessert, and elegant entrees: Baked Barley Grits with Apples and Sausage will far outdo the standard cornmeal; and Millet Burgers with Olives, Sun-dried Tomatoes, and Pecorino won't leave anyone missing the meat. Tips on quick-cooking grains or precooking ahead of time make cooking with these hearty staples practical for weeknights and many are appropriate (or can be modified) for vegetarian and vegan diets.
