I couldn't afford a stand mixer, and I burned out the motor of my small (and very old) hand mixer with the thick gluten-free doughs. I bought a heavy-duty KitchenAid, 5-speed hand mixer for $50 that comes with regular beaters and dough hooks. It's working out very well.

I have a kitchen aid and just love it. My mom just got a bread machine from cuisinart with a cycle for gluten free and she seems to really like it

rh,

You might want to try your hand mixer and see what happens. The gluten-free bread recipes I have tried produce doughs that are much wetter and lighter than regular bread dough. At first I used my Sunbeam Mixmaster Heritage Series Legacy Edition stand mixer (a beautiful machine), but decided it just wasn't suitable enough for my needs (or wants, as the case may be). So I got a Kitchenaid Artisan stand mixer. My purchase was accelerated by the fact that I lucked into a deal too good to pass up. I saw a display model on a discontinued color (almond on almond) without a box or manual at a local department store (Kohl's) for $179.

I don't want to get too far into an evaluation of it here, as I want to start a new thread at some point titled Sunbeam vs. Kitchenaid Revisited. Suffice it to say it's met my expectations, I'm very impressed.

Theres plenty of research you can do for just a little effort. Do a search of this site for mixer, stand mixer, or hand mixer (that's 3 different searches). Go to the top of the page where it says "example search". In the little box, replace the words 'tomato sauce" with the word "mixer" or the other suggestions. Not all of the results will be a discussion of the mixers, some will be a part of recipe discussions.

Before actually buying a new mixer, or anything else really, I would suggest going to amazon .com or epinions.com and reading some reviews of the product.

best regards, lm

p.s. Valda, not being able to afford something hasn't deterred me yet!

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.
