About this ebook

When sisters Ginger and Frances Park opened up a chocolate shop in Washington, D.C., they couldn't wait to share their gourmet sweets with their friends and family. Unfortunately, Ginger's son, Justin, was born with severe food allergies, and even visiting the shop made Justin sick. Far from discouraged, Ginger and Frances vowed they would find alternatives for Justin that tasted better than the real thing. Inspired by their mission, Frances and Ginger wrote Allergies, Away!, a fun and healthy cookbook chock full of recipes for the millions of parents whose children have food allergies. This book features more than seventy recipes for kid-friendly foods like Seoulful Half-Moon Dumplings, Rock Star Onion Rings, and Orange Chocolate Muffins, and every recipe is free of dairy, nuts, and eggs. The recipes are easy enough to make with children, and Frances and Ginger include helpful tips for maximum fun in the kitchen. Perfect for parents who are sick of making bland and boring food for their allergic kids, Allergies, Away! is the ultimate guide to tasty, homemade food that is also allergen-free.

    As a mom with a child who has life threatening allergies to dairy and tree nuts, I was excited when I saw the subtitle of this book. A lot of recipes I find that are nut-free aren't dairy-free, and visa versa. Unfortunately I wasn't impressed with the recipes. They sounded delicious except that the authors' solution for nut and dairy-free was to replace everything dairy related with soy products. I can do that myself with any recipe, however I prefer not to use soy in large amounts, and definitely not with all the chemicals that are needed to turn soy in to fake cheese products. I love cheese but for once I wish I could find a recipe book that didn't rely on cheese for making meals taste good.

    For those who are looking for a nut-free replacement for dairy products, palm oil shortening (preferably organic/fair trade so you don't contribute to deforestation) works well as a replacement for butter, along with applesauce in baked goods, and lard if you aren't a vegetarian. Coconut oil and milk are awesome too and your can easily make your own, which results in a simple product with no additives. Though coconuts are sometimes lumped in with tree nuts, they are not a true botanical nut. They are a fruit, specifically a dried drupe.
    For those with egg allergies, the recipes might be useful though they seem to rely solely on applesauce though there are many other egg replacements out there, like flax seed.

    The part I enjoyed the most was reading about their personal experiences with the child's allergies. It would have been even cooler if they had transformed their chocolate shop into a dairy and nut free chocolate shop. Being located in densely populated DC, I bet they would have been immensely popular, especially if their products were as good as or better than the regular chocolate shops (not am unbelievable possibility as I am a chocolate snob and have found that the dairy and nut free chocolate products are often of superior quality).
