Flour Power explains how a little-known kitchen appliance called the home flour mill can significantly boost whole-grain intake with just a few minutes of kitchen time: about three minutes for milling and a few minutes more to dump ingredients in a bread machine bucket. It also explains how home milling empowers home bakers with the capacity to select or create the ideal flour for any baked product. For example, with the appropriate wheat, delicious American-style light breads (similar to white bread but with much more flavor and nutrition) can be made in a bread machine without adding white flour or gluten. With the appropriate wheat, even the nutrient-free zone of desserts can be made more healthful. And by mixing the freshest (non-rancid) flours from grains like wheat, rye and corn, artisan bakers can learn what their hand-shaped loaves were supposed to taste like. In short, if you have a question about buying a mill, milling flour, or baking bread from whole wheat, Flour Power answers it.

Have you heard? Milling at home can be less expensive and healthier than buying pre-ground flours!

Grains and pulses, nuts and seeds: recipes from breads and tortillas to pancakes and pies. In this timely new book Christine McFadden explores the way in which flour has been a staple part of our diet, and provides a comprehensive look at the alternatives to traditional wheat flour. With an increasing and at times bewildering choice of flours available online and in shops, this book follows a usable A–Z format, providing a CV of sorts for each flour (including plant source, gluten content, protein content, flavour profile and how best to use). Each of the flours featured is accompanied by suggested recipes from Christine's kitchen, and these recipes demonstrate the often underestimated ways in which flour is used. Flours range from cassava and quinoa to cricket flour and coffee flour, with delicious recipes such as cheddar and chilli cornbread (using amaranth flour), salted chocolate tart with buckwheat and walnut pastry, spicy onion pancakes (using moong dal) and spring lamb pot pies (with tradition plain wheat flour). Recipes are accompanied by beautiful photography to bring the dishes to life.

The multiple ways in which people relate to animals provide a revealing window through which to examine a culture. Western cultures tend to view animals either as pets or food, and often overlook the vast number of roles that they may play within a culture and in social life more generally: their use in medicine, folk traditions and rituals. This comprehensive and very readable study focuses on Malawi people and their rich and varied relationship with animals -- from hunting through to their use as medicine. More broadly, through a rigorous and detailed study the author provides insights which show how the people's relationship to their world manifests itself not strictly in social relations, but just as tellingly in their relatioships with animals -- that, in fact, animals constitute a vital role in social relations. While significantly advancing classic African ethnographic studies, this book also incorporates current debates in a wide range of disciplines -- from anthropology through to gender studies and ecology.
