For too long gluten-free cooking has had a reputation for being about as appetising as hospital food - it was crying out for a style and taste makeover.

Enter Rowie Dillon, media creative, coeliac and cake-baker extraordinaire - a woman on a mission to save the world from tasteless, unattractive food and change gluten-free cooking forever. Her successful business has restored the joy in eating to allergy sufferers, making yummy food accessible to all. Indulge is the outcome of years of experimenting to achieve the best results. With 100 delicious recipes that everyone will enjoy, this gorgeous cookbook will change your perception of gluten-free food.

 Rowie will be at Essential Ingredient Rozelle, Saturday November 19 from 11am to 1pm, siging copies of her new title.

With no technical training Heston Blumenthal has made a career out of experimenting with food and challenging conventions that have underpinned the culinary world since day one. The latest recipe book to bare his name takes a more relaxed look into the home life of the adventurous chef, creating an approachable reference for those who want to know the secrets of better tasting dishes, but aren’t afraid to get technical.

A title for the true at-home gourmet, Mark Best’s new release reflects the precision and passion that has made him one of Australia’s top chefs.

“Mark approaches his cuisine with an open mind, dedication to detail and perseverance that he describes as ‘an eternal dissatisfaction’ – this defines his relentless search for creativity with a surprising and disarming intellect. His artistic rigour is demonstrated in the beautiful plating. There is an appreciation of modern techniques and sensibilities, and having conquered the French method, he has more importantly embarked on a journey to define Australian culinary style.” – Rene Redzepi
