Hi everyone, Yesterday I bought some Fearn Rice Baking Mix (the store I went to was out of the Brown Rice mix, so I just got the regular white rice mix instead.) I've used the brown rice mix before and I loved it! But, yesterday I made muffins with this mix and found it had a really weird aftertaste - very strong and almost acidic or something. The brown...

Hi everyone, I've found a few recipes calling for corn flour. I thought that instead of finding that more specialty-type item, I could simply use cornmeal and grind it down well in my blender. Would that work okay? Thanks! Christina

ARCHIVED What Is Masa De Maize?
happyslob posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Hi all, I've found a delicious, highly rated chocolate chip cookie recipe online that uses instant masa de mais (maize?) I wonder - is this just corn flour? Do you know where you can purchase this? I found the gluten-free chocolate chip cookie recipe on CDKitchen.com - if you search, I'm sure you'll find it too. It's been a long time since I've eaten a... -
ARCHIVED Cooking Tinkyada Rice Pasta (spaghetti)
happyslob replied to happyslob's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Hey all, I tried it again, and this time I did drain the pasta really well in cold water and then again in hot water to, well, heat it up! hehe And, as you all suggested - 13 minutes seems like the perfect amount of time to get pasta al dente. It was really wonderful! Take care, Christina -
ARCHIVED Impossible Chocolate Pie
happyslob replied to beanpole's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I was going to suggest using Bob's Red Mill gluten free baking mix. I've tried it for a really simple microwave sponge cake (British Style) and it was really good. I served it with berries and whipped cream. Yummy and super fast and easy! I'll find the recipe and post it later... -
ARCHIVED Best Gluten Free All-purpose Flour
happyslob posted a topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Hi everyone, I just picked up a bag of Kinnickinnick (sorry if I spelled that wrong) Celiac Flour blend, and I can't wait to give it a try. Have any of you tried this one? Have you had fairly good results? Or do you prefer Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free flour? I haven't had a piece of cake in a LONG time (I was avoiding white flour for a year and half... -

ARCHIVED Cooking Tinkyada Rice Pasta (spaghetti)
happyslob replied to happyslob's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Thank you so much you guys! I guess I hadn't read the package carefully enough - thought rinsing with a bit of hot water would do the trick, but I did find it slimy. And I definitely DID overcook the pasta. Can't wait to try again, since I love pasta too! Take care all, Christina -
ARCHIVED Cooking Tinkyada Rice Pasta (spaghetti)
happyslob posted a topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Hi everyone, Last night, for the very first time, I tried cooking rice pasta! It was a bag of Tinkyada brown rice spaghetti. I was pretty pleased with the results, because I've heard some horror stories about some rice pastas being REALLY bad. (Mushy, etc.) I had only two problems I was hoping you guys could help me with: * How long to cook the pasta... -
ARCHIVED Can Cornstarch Replace Flour? And gluten-free Cupcake Recipe
happyslob replied to happyslob's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Hi David, Thanks so much! I will definitely go and check that out. It sounds delicious. To let everyone else know - I did make those cornstarch cupcakes last night. I changed the recipe slightly, by adding an egg (was surprised the original recipe didn't call for one), a bit more vanilla, and a handful of chocolate chips. The result was surprisingly... -
ARCHIVED Can Cornstarch Replace Flour? And gluten-free Cupcake Recipe
happyslob posted a topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Hi everyone, This is my first post here, and in fact my first day here! I've known for quite some time that I'm intolerant to white all-purpose flour, but I think I've figured out that any wheat makes me sick. Anyway...I found a recipe for cupcakes online that are gluten-free, and they use cornstarch instead of flour. Have any of you had success using...
