Egg Replacer?

I just picked up Bette Hagmans gourmet comfort foods cookbook at the libary, it looks like a great book, but she uses egg replacer in many recipes, what do you guys use? I have egg beaters, but I think shes using a powder.

I also noticed she uses a lot of what she calls exotic flours, I was a bit disappointed that I would need to by even MORE flours :blink: are all her books like this? this is the first one I've read..if you think there is a better book [more foods] than just bread please let me know because I plan on ordering some from amazon and really want to get use out of them

thanks, Betty

I have two powdered egg replacers that I use. I tend to use the Ener-g Egg Replacer most often. These are great for people who can't have eggs because they contain no eggs at all. The egg replacer is a levening agent that aids in the rising of gluten-free breads. :)

I personally can't wait to try more of her recipes. My hubby (when we were dating) bought me one of her books nearly three years ago. I finally tried her pizza - it was great!!!!!! Now I have to rearrange my pantry so I can have containers with all of her mixes. I know it seems pricey, but it's SO worth it and having yummy bread substitutes is worth every penny (IMHO). The egg replacer from Enr-G runs about $5.60 or so, but you only need two tbls so it would last forever.

I like Carol Fenster's "Cooking Free" better than Hagman's books. I'll look through my Hagmans (gluten-free and More gluten-free), but find myself continually going back to Cooking Free instead.

      Hi I've been told I need a MRI on my bowels , I was booked for a colonoscopy, but because of my sever back issues and trapped nerve it can't be done , the nurse told me I will have to have a manitol drink a hour before the scan , I'm just a bit worried has I have issues with sweeteners like even a little,  I get a weird throat and ears and I've read it is a similar substance , not sure if anyone has had one of these scans or could give me some advise on the drink prep thanks in advance 😄

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
