ARCHIVED Stevia?
clbevilacqua replied to a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I use liquid stevia and it sweetens great, but goes from sweet to bitter in literally a drop. Recently, the barista at Whole Foods had me try xylitol. It was great! Looks like sugar, measures like sugar, bakes like sugar and tastes like sugar-but with 40% of the food energy (calories). I bought some, took it home and replaced the sugar in the sugar bowl... -

You are giving your daughter such a huge blessing! Your life as the chief cook and bottle washer will be much easier if your entire house goes gluten-free as the instance of cross contamination is high.

ARCHIVED Why Cosmetics Need To Be Gluten Free
clbevilacqua posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications

Most product lines I have looked at are some gluten-free some not and I worry about cross contamination. I also need a line that has... -
ARCHIVED My Bread Always Falls...
clbevilacqua replied to cathzozo's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Another thing you can try is dissolving 1/2 to 1 tsp of unflavored gelatin in the liquid. This helps with the texture-making it more "gluten like". Orgran also recently came out with a product they call "Gluten Free Gluten Replacer".

ARCHIVED Chebe Pizza Crust Mix
clbevilacqua replied to ebrbetty's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I was a pastry/bread baker pre-diagnosis and made homemade pizza every Sunday night for my family. It took me 3 years (and MANY failed/nasty crusts) to come up with a recipe that even my father (who does not have celiac and is probably the pickiest eater on the planet) likes. If you are interested-send me an email and I will get the recipe to you! Re...
