From Chron:
While Valenti's cookbook is filled with 250 recipes which sound more like decadence than deprivation - think lobster salad, duck breast and bananas foster - the pages aren't all dedicated to your three squares a day.
Several pages are dedicated to defining the disease and how to live, shop and eat on a diabetic food exchange program. And his message on salt is that however much you eat, it's likely too much.
Valenti acknowledges he's not letter-perfect in his own diet, but that's what living with diabetes realistically is about, he says. If he's planning dinner with his wife, he is "good" during the day so he can allow himself bread or a glass of wine later.
Tom Valenti has been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes 14 years ago. He is the chef and owner of both Ouest and the West Branch in New York.
