  1. I'm so glad you tried the hasselback potatoes! They are different and look beautiful, too. And just think of all the flavour combinations possible! Yum.
  2. They use white rice flour, tapioca starch, potato starch and albumen in the focaccia. Their lean bread includes white rice flour, potato starch, guar gum, albumen, defatted soy flour and whey powder. In their multigrain bread they use the same as the lean bread but include a soaker of yellow cornmeal, flaxseed, caraway and sesame seeds. I really like the...
  3. Thai Green Curry Chicken (making my own curry paste) with Lemongrass and Kaffir Lime Leaves Wide Cellophane Rice Noodles Julienned Carrot and Daikon "Pickles" Blood Orange Panna Cotta
  4. Yes, I know how you feel about it rising. Some breads just don't. There are a few that do - I like the recipes in the Culinary Institute of America gluten-free Baking book - there are recipes for bagels, English muffins, doughnuts...
  5. So, tell us - did you enjoy your warm home-baked bread? Eight years is a long time!
  6. I can have Greek yogurt but stick to lactose-free regular yogurt when I want flavoured. Greek yogurt is so wonderful, especially in Middle Eastern cookery. Love it drizzled with chestnut or sage-infused honey and fresh figs (which we only get once a year where I live) and toasted walnuts. Well, heck - I love it with anything!
  7. I was for several months then gradually found I could tolerate some cheese (i.e. buffalo, goat, aged cow and sheep). Thank goodness! But I do use lactose-free milk as I cannot tolerate regular. And I do not eat ice cream.
  8. Fresh buffalo mozzarella is hard to find - we got it in an Italian specialty store. It only lasts for a few days so you buy it and use it quickly. It is more flavourful than regular fresh mozzarella and has a lovely creamy texture. I just love it.
  9. Tonight is pizza night! I cannot wait to roll out my dough. We found fresh buffalo milk mozzarella and fresh basil to tear on it. Will serve it with arugula salad with lemon Parmesan vinaigrette. Humble and yummy.
  10. That sounds like a very balanced yummy meal! I have just read on another thread about your troubles - so sorry you are going through so much. I hope you enjoy your dinner and that it will agree with your body!
  11. Wow - what and where in Croatia does he teach? Our house is in Istria, a 2.5 hour drive or ferry from Venice. It is gobsmackingly gorgeous there!
  12. After the seared duck breast the other night we thought we should go healthier tonight so we are just having Mung Bean Vermicelli (cellophane) with Chicken Stir Fry (and lots of fresh veg).
  13. Yes, the economy is very good. There is a lot of money floating around, that is for sure! Very transient and very, very wealthy. But very, very cold! Often we see major storms in the St. John's area on TV and are grateful for where we live until we go outside. We had rain a few weeks ago and the streets are sheer ice and likely will be now for the...
  14. In northern Alberta. The funny thing is, nothing shuts down - everyone is expected to continue going to work, school, whatever. Our vehicle tires become square and thump when driving until they warm up; skin can freeze in 90 seconds. It can be downright dangerous! Blech.
  15. I know - sometimes we think we are quite insane. We cannot wait to move to Croatia! The Mediterranean climate is certainly a far cry from this frigid barren giant ice cube!
  16. Yep! The MINUS 37 does not include windchill which can make it feel far worse. The coldest temperature we had was -51F and with windchill -65F. Not so good.
  17. On our most recent visit to an Asian store we got eight different kinds of noodles including cellophane, green bean, sweet potato, mung bean, green pea - they are so inexpensive and lovely and, best of all, gluten free.
  18. Friday Night: Seared Scallops with Vanilla Bean Aioli Smoked and Seared Duck Breast to a perfect medium rare Parsnip Puree Beet Coulis Goat Cheese Mousse Pickled Shallots Earl Grey Pot de Creme It was absolutely sublime!
  19. Guess what our high is for Monday? MINUS 37 F. Now that is brrrrrr....
  20. Funny! Sometimes I do have Chex for breakfast! We eat whatever we want but in moderation - that is the key. We eat on smaller plates and I cook things in a very healthy way whenever possible. We eat a lot of raw fruit and vegetables and an incredibly varied diet. I could easily cook three meals a day for an entire year (actually, longer) without doubling...
  21. We had much of the same tonight except I added steamed broccoli to the mix. The blueberry ketchup is amazing! It is almost like a savoury jam that would go so well with wild duck or venison, too.
  22. So true! I love that we are able to eat just as well, if not even BETTER than the gluten fiends!
  23. Momofuku Ginger Scallion Noodles Roast Pork Balls Stuffed with Scallions and Garlic served with Bibb Lettuce Cups Homemade Nuoc Cham and Blueberry "Ketchup" for sauces
  24. How great! I so enjoy making pasta and potstickers with all sorts of delicious fillings.
  25. Smoky Chipotle and Black Bean Soup with Bacon Homemade gluten-free Focaccia Winter Greens with Peppered Pecans, Goat's Cheese and Grapefruit Tarragon Vinaigrette Poached Pears in Red Wine with Cardamom Creme Fraiche
