I don’t know about the others, but Cooking without looking is also available in 
braille.

Subject: [CnD] More books written for the blind

Hello, everyone.



For those who may be interested, I highly recommend the following

Books written for the blind.  They are all on Bard,

And in audio formats.



Cooking Without Looking by Esther Knudson Tipps



There are two different recordings of this book.

The information is dated, but much of it is useful and there

Are many easy recipes.  One of the audio versions is actually

Read by a blind man from a braille copy for NLS.



When the Cook Can't Look by Ralph Reed

He is blind and explains how he does things well, how

To do things step by step without vision or supervision.

He has recipes in the book, and he

Rates them level 1, 2, and 3.  All the recipes

Are easy and that book is well written.  It is read by

Ray Hagen.  One recipe I like is sauerbraten, which is not

Soaked with cookies; that recipe in the book is the real

Sauerbraten.



Another book full of tips is written by a

Deaf-blind woman.  It is called Pathways to

Independence by Rita Kersh.

It covers everything from housekeeping to

Cooking without sight and hearing, but those who can

Hear can also benefit from this book.

Please check it out.  It's on Bard.



Another one available on Bard is

Adaptive Culinary Techniques for the Visually Impaired

It is well written by its blind author.



I frequently monitor Bard and so all this

Comes down to knowing what is out there.



Now, you have more easy recipes when you

Get these books from Bard or your local braille and talking book library.



Of course, we should continue to help each other on the list.

Don't stop sending tips!!  Even I can benefit,

And I'm an old hand.  There are things I never would

Have thought of, always something new to learn from others.



Best,

Marie
