Book Amasando Galicia Gluten-Free by Mónica Prego

The Amasando Galicia sin gluten by Mónica Prego book opens the door to gluten-free pastry, sweets, and bread from the Galician tradition. Homemade recipes built on technique, with real flours worked one by one and without resorting to commercial mixes, so that there are no differences at the table and everyone can eat the same thing, without giving up traditional flavor. 

The author has structured the book to guide the reader every step of the way from the very beginning:

• It starts with a tour of gluten-free flours: what each one is, how it behaves, and why they are combined in different ways. It is the foundation for understanding the process and everything it shows us later.
• Then come the basics and resources, the technical foundations that are repeated throughout the book and, once understood, work for almost everything: psyllium gel, sourdough starter, tangzhong, sweet and laminated doughs, or creams, among others. 
• Then comes the recipe book organized by families and holidays, to follow the traditional Galician calendar: bicas, sponge cakes and madeleines, cookies, almond sweets. It also includes recipes for Carnival, Easter, Christmas, and other holidays.
• It also shares the empanada doughs, empanadas, and a section on Galician breads so that savory dishes and homemade bread are not left out.

In total, the book includes more than 90 carefully adapted gluten-free recipes, with judgment, testing, and precision. From the most iconic Galician pastry recipes (some of them nearly forgotten) to the classic doughs and breads of a lifetime. 

In this new book, Mónica Prego shares all the information needed so that we understand flours and basics well enough to adapt traditional Galician cooking to a gluten-free life, without giving anything up. It is a book to learn how to knead and bake, not just to follow the steps. It is the author of the Pandebroa blog, a cooking blog with traditional Galician recipes and other everyday recipes, through which she has always wanted to convey the essence of her homeland. In addition to sharing her recipes on the blog, she has actively participated in Cooking with Claudia&Julia, our Facebook cooking group, and collaborated with Magimix and Claudia&Julia, sharing recipes and answering questions.
