Ricotta cheesecake gets bonus flavor from a chestnut flour crust; teff is used to make a chocolate layer cake that can replace any birthday cake with equally pleasing results. All of the nearly 125 recipesincluding Double Oatmeal Cookies Buckwheat Gingerbread Chocolate Chestnut Souffl Cake and Blueberry Corn Flour Cobblertake the flavors of our favorite desserts to the next level.The book is organized by flour with useful information on its taste flavor affinities and more.
