I'm The Allergy-Friendly Cook. I write cookbooks, (The Allergen-Free Baker's Handbook and The Whole Foods Allergy Cookbook), food blogs ("Food Allergy Recipe Challenge" on Martha Stewart's Whole Living Daily, and "Cybele Pascal: Allergen-Free Cuisine", and make cooking videos (Eat Freely with Cybele) for people with food allergies and intolerances. I'm also the mother of a food allergic family, and an ambassador for FAAN (Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network), along with Chef Ming Tsai, working to make sure nobody is ever deprived of their favorite foods, just because they have food allergies. For more info, check out my website Cybele Pascal.
