1000 Gluten Free Recipes - Carole Fenster

So a week ago I bought 1000 Gluten Free Recipes by Carole Fenster for my tablet. I was curious and it was an experiment to see if I liked cookbooks on my tablet rather than in paper format.

I discovered that I hate cookbooks as ebooks but this is a great cookbook.

I have made:

Cinnamon Raisin Bread (twice)

Oatmeal Bread

Granola with Dried Fruit

Lemon Poppyseed Muffins

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Chocolate Cherry Coconut Cookies

Double Chocolate Cookies

Lemon Poppyseed Scones with Lemon Glaze

The Oatmeal Bread collapsed on itself but that was my fault for massively over-rising it, it still tasted good and we ate it all.

Other than that one mistake everything has been wonderful. The Lemon Poppyseed Scones are really great. I made them today and they are almost gone. I will be making another batch this evening to have in the freezer for coffee dates.

I was a bit apprehensive about buying the book since many of the recipes call for Expandex which is a modified tapioca starch that is nearly impossible to get in Canada unless you want to pay a fortune to have it redirected across the border by a 3rd party shipping company. I made the muffins without it and they were great. I have also just subbed xanthan gum in the recipes which call for both xanthan gum and guar gum and haven't noticed any problems.

If you are looking for a cookbook, this one gets a great review from me. (As I sit here munching on my Lemon Scone)

Oh, and a huge bonus for me is that she uses almost no rice flour in the cookbook. Her basic blend is Tapioca, Sorghum and Corn or Potato starch (whichever you prefer) I use Corn starch as it is cheaper. I am thrilled since my niece is allergic to rice and oats and I have an awful time trying to bake for a family gathering. Now I have a whole bunch of great recipes that are gluten/rice/oat free.

      Rosacia

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Nita hearn! It's interesting that you should ask this question. I just has an appointment with my dermatologist last week because I have developed a red rash on my cheeks and red bumps/pimples in the bridge of my nose. My wife was concerned that I might have developed rosacea, which she developed years ago. She's not a celiac but I am and I was diagnosed with celiac disease over 20 years ago. This rash is a very recent development, however. The dermatologist was not yet ready to call it rosacea but he did prescribe a antibiotic cream for me (Metronidazole) and an over the counter medicated gel called Aquaphor.  I'm sure you've heard of dermatitis herpetiformis, the classic rash that some celiacs get. But what I have doesn't look like that and there is not itching or discomfort. Dermatitis herpetiformis comes with an intense itch and it has pustules in the center of the bumps. So, I am wondering if I have developed rosacea but not sure at this point. And so far, the two meds prescribed haven't helped but I've only been using them a few days.

      nuts.com -- no longer Celiac safe?

      By RMJ · Posted

      I noticed that too! I emailed them to ask if this had always been the case and the labeling changed, or if the manufacturing had changed.  Their answer unfortunately didn’t answer my question. The organization (GFFP) they use to certify only requires ONE test per product! Product must test less than 5ppm gluten, so that is good. I can’t tell from their website if they actually audit the manufacturing facilities like GFCO does. GFFP certification I’ve decided to go to Tierra Farm for nuts.  They are certified by GFCO, which uses a 10ppm standard, but they require more than one lot to be tested, they do audits of manufacturing facilities, and their detailed requirements are available on their website. Unfortunately Tierra Farm nuts are expensive.They have all three nuts/seeds that you mentioned. Their packaging says gluten free facility. GFCO certification

      is equate menstrual complete gluten free?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      A combination of Thiamine B 1, Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12 relieve pain.   Takeda ALINAMIN EX Plus Vitamin B1 B6 B12 Health Supplementary from Japan  is the brand I get for a convenient, all-in-one pill.  However separate vitamin supplements of each if the three vitamins works just the same.   This works for pain from all sorts of reasons.  I take it for back pain for crushed vertebrae so I know it works well.
