The No-Salt, Lowest-Sodium Baking BookPeople compelled to control their sodium intake will welcome The No-Salt, Lowest-Sodium Baking Book. Following his earlier cookbook, Donald A. Gazzaniga shows how to ensure that those who can't tolerate sodium can still enjoy flavorful baked goods. Gazzaniga covers both yeast-raised and quick breads. The latter require special sodium-free baking powder to achieve the lowest sodium levels. Garlic-cheese focaccia, French onion bread, and Italian sourdough make for good sandwiches. Sweet breads, including one with oats, dates, and prunes, provide plenty of fiber. Cookie recipes, especially those for biscotti, supply plenty of spicy flavor without compromising on sodium levels. Gazzaniga also shares nutritional information for diabetics, and he further explains how to make his recipes suitable for sugar-restricted diets.

About Chef Don
Besides his life as a chef, Donald Gazzaniga has been a Marine Corps field officer, a sky diver, a SCUBA diver, an accomplished commercial pilot, an advertising creative director and he spent a career as
a director of photography in Hollywood. "I tried it all," he says. Add his more than 13-years as a chef helping thousands of others and we believe that indeed, he has. As of this date Don is the only photographer allowed on top of Mt. Rushmore. That's park ranger Bob Crisman with the camera mounted on his helmet.
