Mom to Many

Open Original Shared Link Whoops! I seem to have lost the 72 hour kit list in the transfer between computers. If you contact Against the grain they can send it to you. If I can help you firther let me know. Arkansas is beautiful! I made a whirlwind quick trip to Greenwood with my preemie and flew into that tiny airport years ago. Wow, that was...

I am a terrible gadget queen. I love them in the kitchen. But, my cupboards have reached overflowing with gadgets. If you are gadget challenged like me try cutting a gallon zipper bag up the sides, cut off the zipper and then with it still folded in half put the dough ball in the center and with a large bread board apply even heavy pressure. Viola....

I am answering this post even though it is old in hopes that someone is interested in this topic. I visited a friend last year and attended a party at her home. It was all gluten free. She served Buckwheat Pete's pitas that she had made. They were yummy I recently made my first batch of pitas. They were very good. Mine turned out just a bit different...

My husband called me into the room to see what Alton was doing. I was thrilled to see media buzz about gluten-free cooking! We love goods eats! We watch it a few times a week. I spend so much time in the trenches trying to take good care of my celiac kids. (As all of you do.) Our cookie recipe is very good, but I will happily try Alton's. I...

It makes total sense to me that your symptoms are more severe around your cycle. Do you have cramping with your cycle? If you are it makes total sense that the smooth muscles of your bowels would be affected since things are kicked up anyway. As for the paxil... Could it have further irritated your digestive tract and made the syptoms surface? Dr...

I understand the picky eater problem. My 4 year old son tried gluten free bread. He said Mom, it's hairy. He meant it is gritty. His 15 year old sister says that she loves her bread. Lol! Marianne

I have The Kitchen Mill and I am in the market for a second one, as I mentioned. Open Original Shared Link Since you are local... Sometimes you can get a deal on a second. THey sell them as seconds for cosmetic reasons. Be sure to ask questions about the machine if it is a second. It saves you about 20.00 to buy a second. It may or may not be...

Places to buy Food Storage items / Potato Starch, taopioca starch, rice flour, corn starch in Utah for Celiacs / Celiac sufferers. Some great resources are; Against the Grain in Taylorsville, everything in the store is Gluten Free! What a great service to the Celiac community. Blue Chip Group in SLC, they have flour blends, french bread mix, and many...

Hi The food storage information that was shared at the GIG meeting got me thinking. I googled Gluten Free food storage and found your post to my surprise. Yes! I was at the Ut County GIG meeting. (Just to let you know Marianne is my internet name. So If you look for me as Marianne at GIG meetings or at the walk you won't find me. ) We discussed...

see the next post... oops, posted twice.

I use a pasta machine and for thinner noodles we cook them for 5-7 minutes depending upon the thickness. (I use Bete's recipe also) We are going to add some chichen bouillon next time for extra flavor in Kimiko's chicken noodle soup. I keep them in bags in the freezer. But, Kimiko is bored and wants spaghetti. So I'll buy her some Tinkyada.

I learned a trick for nicer bread tops. If you are not afraid of a little cooking spray.... First spread the top with a knife, then we cut 3 diagonal slits to help with even expansion. Then I spray the tops with cooking spray so that the loaves do not dry out during rising. I have found that the top is a bit nicer this way. Mom to 7 really great Kids

I use a kitchen mill to grind my own rice flour. (It is a steel blade grinder like the whisper mill and the nutrimill.) Be aware that sticky rice ground is the same as Sweet Rice flour. It is not the same as regular long grain rice. I grind regular old long grain rice for Rice Flour. We broke up Fava beans in a course corn grinder from the 19...

I tested negative. But, as a young woman, I had a lot of gas bloating and diahrea. But, when I started having my children it got better. I do have shoulder strap pain (gas pain felt in your shoulder area because it refers) a lot now at age 35. But, no diahrea. I seemed to have a milk and egg allergy as a young woman also. Since my mother has celiacs...

Have you looked at Bette Haagman's bread book? My mom has our copy or I'd look. ANYTHING Bette does is good. As for sourdough, I was watching good eats on the food network and he mentioned that bakeries use sour dough start in freeze dried form. (If it is gluten-free) He mentioned that you could approach bakers and request purchasing a small amount.
