Breads, pastas and cookies, oh my! Surrounded by these common, every day foods, the average person can’t look left or right without spotting foods containing gluten. But with gluten-free diets becoming much more common, and even preferred, the ordinary recipes most people enjoy need to be given a delicious culinary make-over. enter Jessie & Jilly Lagasse.

Imagine growing up with a father known for his rich, Creole-style cooking, who instilled a love and appreciation of food from the very start. Now imagine not being able to eat most of his dishes anymore. That’s what happened to Jessie and Jilly Lagasse when they were diagnosed with gluten allergies in 2001 and 2004, respectively. As a result, they learned to adjust, changing the ways they cooked, ate, and used ingredients.

THE GLUTEN-FREE TABLE provides a well-balanced base of recipes that can add flavor and enjoyment to the menus of even the most demanding of gluten-free eaters. Featuring family favorites, Southern classics, and a few of Jessie and Jilly’s own culinary anecdotes thrown in, THE GLUTEN-FREE TABLE includes delicious, easy-to-prepare recipes such as Sweet ‘n’ Sticky Chicken Wingettes, Hearty Lima Bean and Ham Soup, Jalapeno and Cheddar Cornbread, Slow-Cooked Rosemary Chicken with Apples and Fennel, Maple Syrup Johnnycakes with Ice Cream, and more. Emeril Lagasse has also contributed ten of his own original gluten-free recipes!
