Soymilk Desserts
Author: Yasuyo Shida
Soymilk is attracting worldwide interest for its dietary benefits and can be found in almost every market. Light and easily digestible, soymilk contains good quality phytoproteins and vitamins and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and potassium. Although drinking soymilk is quite common it is still difficult for most people to substitute soymilk in everyday recipes, and many of those who can't tolerate cow's milk often go without their favorite foods. Delicious and Healthy Desserts Made with Soymilk makes cooking with soymilk simple and easy without complicated conversions or substitutions.
Delicious and Healthy Desserts Made with Soymilk features 77 sweet recipes from popular chocolate cakes, fruit desserts, and puddings to fiber-rich cookies made with tofu byproducts. Each recipe comes with step-by-step photos and instructions that even a beginner can follow.
Shirley Reis - KLIATT
This is a great book for those who are lactose intolerant. It is filled with over 70 different desserts and beverages that use soy milk rather than cow's milk. Full-color illustrations illustrate each step in the preparation of the recipes. All recipes clearly indicate the level of difficulty along with necessary preparation times. Each recipe has "do ahead tips" that allow some steps to be done out of order, simplifying the preparation. Some of the recipes are: Peanut and Sesame Biscotti, Tofu Cheesecake, Moist Chocolate Cake, Vanilla and Chocolate Churros, Cherry Tart, Mango Mousse, Citrus Smoothie, and Parfait Japanesque. A few of the recipes require specialized ingredients that need to be purchased in a Japanese grocery store. Shida has studied at both L'Ecole Lenotrein in France and at the Richmond Bakery School in Switzerland. Her confections are highly praised by gourmets in Japan. (Quick & Easy).

Totally Chocolate Cookbook
Author: Helene Siegel
Helene Siegel continues to delight and amaze us with her Totally cookbook collection. In this volume, Helene ventures into a dark continent in search of black gold-no, not oil-Chocolate. To some it is decadent, addictive, and even 'devil' ish. To others it is, quite simply, divine. Whether sinful or sacred, most everyone loves it. But few of us really know what to do with it and are content to let others have all the fun. Totally Chocolate de-mystifies this cooperative comestible.
