Flour Mix-center Of Cookies Won't Bake Completely

Hi,

I must have been distracted last time I mixed my flours. I've made pancakes and cookies with the batch and neither one have turned out. The center of the cookies will not cook completely (I left them in the oven for as long as 12 minutes-too brown)

I used Carol Fenster's mix of 1 1/2 Sorghum, 1 1/2 potato starch & 1 cup tapioca. Do you think it could be to much starch and not enough sorghum? I'm assuming maybe I didn't get 1 1/2 cups in the mix because it has worked perfectly in the past.

Thanks

That has happened to me, too. I have now started to use a whisk to mix the flours when I make the blend, which has helped. But, sometimes I have to bake stuff longer than she says in the cookbook.

I love her stuff, and I have the 1,000 Recipes, but there's stuff in there that's just wacky. Like in her Fresh Figs with Honey and Goat Cheese, her recipe calls for parmiggiano reggiano, and no goat cheese. :huh: Soooo, could be that something was overlooked and the cooking time needs to be adjusted. The flour blend is still my favorite, though. I made the focaccia bread this weekend for my family, and my aunt requested that I make it the next night, too!! :D

      Thanks Scott.  That's why I was hoping for a recommendation of a place known to be safe.  Jenny

      Can Celiac flares affect my eyes?

      By jeriM · Posted

      Thank you so much.  It helps just knowing there is a connection and it's not my imagination.    I am seeking help from a nutritionist and will talk to my PC about inflammation marker testing - thank you.  During one flare I went to see an ophthalmologist because my symptoms were so severe.  He didn't draw any connection but just said that my eyes were extremely dry and recommended drops, which I use.  However, when a flare develops, the drops are only marginally effective.   I think I've eliminated one source of contamination.  We had 20 chickens until less than a month ago, when we sold that property.   Although I scrubbed after feeding and taking care of the chickens, the feed is mostly wheat and I'm sure I had to be inhaling wheat 'dust' every day.   I'm feeling like there will be improvement.   Thank you so much for your reply, the help and suggestions.

      How to interpret my genetic test results

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      Thank you so much for your response! Does this mean that each of my parents on their own may not have HLA-DQ8 but combined together gave me HLA-DQ8?

      Any chance you are getting traces of gluten in your diet? This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      How to interpret my genetic test results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your interpretation is on the right track! Based on your results, you do have one of the genetic markers associated with celiac risk—HLA-DQ8—which means you inherited DQA1*03 from one parent and DQB1*0302 from the other. These two alleles together form the HLA-DQ8 haplotype, so having both confirms the DQ8 positivity (not just one alone). Since you’re DQ2-negative but DQ8-positive, this still means you have a genetic predisposition to celiac (though not everyone with DQ8 develops it). If you’re experiencing symptoms, the next step would be discussing antibody testing (like tTG-IgA) or an endoscopy with your doctor, but I think you decided not to do the gluten challenge and just go gluten-free.
