Review by Library Journal Review
Foung, who was diagnosed with lupus in 2004, writes the popular Sodium Girl blog (sodiumgirl.com), in which she documents her experiences living a low-sodium lifestyle. In her debut cookbook she shares adventurous, flavorful recipes (some new, some from her blog, and some from celebrity chefs) and useful advice, such as how to cut salt from your favorite recipes, including buffalo wings and Bloody Marys. Also provided is information on handling diet-challenging situations and environments (e.g., restaurant outings, trips abroad, college dining halls). She lists a sodium count for each dish, as well as her favorite salt-free cookbooks. Entertaining prose and stunning photographs offset a difficult-to-read typeface. VERDICT Foung's cheerful, can-do attitude will inspire anyone struggling to adopt a low-sodium diet. (c) Copyright 2013. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
