mamaw replied to zarfkitty's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I Usually get stuff like that alot. I try to remember that it is the thought that counts....They must think highly of you to give such a nice dollar amount gift. I would trade it for another place on the re-gift sites or have a party for the students. I always send a big thank you & don't go into detail because some people just don't understand . If they... -

mamaw replied to ackdavis's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I have a Kitchen Aid...... haven't had that happen. It does happen with my hand kitchen -aid mixer for five power levels though. I just think the reason it happens with it is tomuch dough for it to handle. Happens when I double or triple some recipes. -
ARCHIVED Help With Board And Health Food Store
mamaw replied to Rindy's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Hi & welcome I agree with the other two posters... Unless your are also dairy free whey is ok...... I think if you remember that if a product states no wheat , that does not mean no gluten . But if a product stated no gluten then it is safe....... So I always tell my newbies to look for products that states no gluten & you can feel safe about... -

ARCHIVED Where Do You Buy Xanthan Gum And What Is It?
mamaw replied to Kathy'sUnicorns's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Most health food stores carry xanthan gum or guar gum. I find it cheapest at GNC'S. Whole Foods carries it also.... plus you can buy ready mixed flour blends that have this already in the mix. There are several comapnies that have their own blend...... We use BetterbatterFlour Blend. Open Original Shared Link Its on sale at present.... mamaw -

I do sometimes make a gluten dessert for my husbands work. Not because it tastes any different but this stuff is pricey & I don't want to waste it on employees who don't need it. Call me L'cheapo I guess. I would say it depends how sensitive you are to gluten,for some a crumb puts them down for days & others don't react at all. I only do this maybe...

Those are usually so good. Do you think the mix was out of date? Maybe you could use the crumbs for an ice cream topping or to sprinkle over a cake... I never has that happen, like Jersey Angel I just cut apiece as needed.... well I could eat the whole thing but I try to limit !!!!! mamaw
