ARCHIVED Substitute For Beer In A Collards Recipe?
awesomeame replied to eleep's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
i usually use a hard cider, (normally blackthorn) for a beer sub. i've also used low sodium club soda as a beer sub in some recipes, it seems to work just fine. club soda is great if you just need the texture of the liquid, but if you're using the beer to add flavor, then you need to use something like blackthorn or other more beery sub. --matt -
does anyone know of a gluten-free demi-glace that's commercially available? if not, does anyone have any suggestions on which gluten-free flour to best use as a substitute? --matt

ARCHIVED Deep Fryer?
awesomeame replied to queenofhearts's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
we have a $150 unit, but it's never used. i deep-fry once every 3 months or so and just heat up a small pan of oil on the stove and stick a thermometer in it. uses way less oil then the deep fryer, and frys food just as fast! a couple GOOD things about fryers...you don't need to watch the temp, just set it at 350* & go. also you can set it outside... -

any asian store should carry them...at least they do in this area. also a healthfood store may carry them. --matt i guess mine were more opaque then transparent, so maybe thicker. something about mine don't sound right, lol. maybe time to buy some from a different store --matt -
ARCHIVED Rice Paper Wrappers
awesomeame replied to ebrbetty's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
i tried these once, but found them to be sooo chewy, like so much so that my teeth had trouble biting through them. i threw out the rest of the package. is it normal for them to be chewy, or did i get a bad batch? i had soaked them in water & filled them. if it IS normal for them to be so chewy, does the chewiness go away when it's deep-fried? tia... -
ARCHIVED Input On My New Purchase...
awesomeame replied to lorka150's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
my finished waffles with the phillips are too thick to fit into a regular toaster, i believe they're about 1" thick, whereas max thickness for normal toasters seems to be about 7/8 or 15/16...they just don't quite fit, and i've looked high and low for 'thick slice' toaster....gotta use the toaster oven warm up the ones i freeze. that might be something to... -

ARCHIVED Hard Fry Batter?
awesomeame replied to GreySaber's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
personally i like the cornmeal, lol. but besides that, i use a gluten-free 'all purpose flour' by a local manufacturer here when i'm frying fish. put about 3mm of olive oil in the pan, coat fish thickly with flour, fry on each side for 3mins on HIGH heat, (just shy of burning the oil) then turn to low heat and cook another 3 mins. i had this for lunch... -

ARCHIVED Who Here Makes Their Own Sausages?
awesomeame replied to awesomeame's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
hey janie that is good to know about the salt, or lack thereof. i hate salt, but put it in anyway 'cause i thought it might be 'necessary' for the recipe. will try next time without. i'm not a fan of keilbasa, but i'm always willing to try something new! you should get that recipe from your fatherinlaw before it's too late in any case --matt -
