This book is full of wonderful information on gluten-free grains, gluten-free flour recipes that are wonderful. Just love many of the recipes. I avoid soy and just substituted chicken where it called for tofu or just left it out. I substituted Sesame seed oil for soy sauce and other gluten free flours when it called for soy flour.
