    Wow! Thank you so much!! I have a Japanese coworker, should I run into trouble. She doesn't cook much at all, but she'll be psyched that I'm making miso. I love to make food that you have to wait for.

    You do bring up a good point. I have never been glutened by my neighbors, who have family members with celiac, but I have been glutened by our food science department at the university where I work. It is always a gamble, when you aren't processing your own food.

    Our zukes did a nice harvest and are now died out, although the yellow squash are still cranking. I'm not sure why they went, there is a little bit of powdery white mildew, but it's more likely the blight from last year, the mini-drought they went through while we were away or a combination of the three. I am in awe of your miso making abilities, would...

    I am blessed by close neighbors with whom we eat at least a couple of times a week. I think it is his uncle who has celiac, so he already knew what was going on and I've been thoroughly impressed ever since the first barbecue when he scrubbed the grill completely. Now when we have people over, there are already four of us that are at the very least gluten...

    Mine would laugh evilly and ask if I wanted to see "really weird." And I wouldn't want him any other way.

    We are growing purple kohlrabi this year that needs to be harvested soon and I was just searching recipes. I haven't tried it, but I'm excited to try a Punjabi recipe for it. In my Flavor Bible I found basil, butter, Parmesan, dill, garlic, mustard, sesame and soy sauce as complements that I want to try, too. I love it when the compost bin sprouts. We...

    If you freeze the burgers (just until stiff, if you're pressed for time) and make sure the grill is well-greased, they work wonderfully. A grill basket is also a great addition, because you can do smaller stuff with just one flip. Margaret

    Is this person saying that because the proteins are denatured there is no possible IgE response? Because if you think about it, most egg protein is denatured at a much lower temperature and yet you find people everywhere eating cooked eggs, yet still with allergies to that situation. With the protein and all. Denatured.

    Forgot to mention that at a local food fare where there was some serious sampling of Maine organic food products... Me: I can't eat wheat. Them: Weed? Me: No, wheat. Them: Meat? No?... Me: [next food vendor?]

    I have a coworker who has a serious problem with cooked whole garlic, but can do garlic powder/garlic salt without issues and ... I find interesting correlations with my gluten-free definitely not-average-blood-type diet and results as a highly atopic individual...but I'm buying food anyway and the library is free in most countries, still.

    Yo, I looked it up and it was Sushi Party's Soy Wrappers at our very cool local natural foods store. I would give the restaurant a call - it's good practice for the rest of life, you bypass a potentially busy server and also, you'd have soo much more fun on your date. Now I want some of them.

    I felt a little bit guilty plunking down ~$200 for my Zoji after going through two $30 bread machines pre-gluten-free, but it is the best thing. Evah. You can program it for different cycles and while other bread machines will also make jam, the Zojirushi will make things like cheesecake and meatloaf, since you can program it to turn the beaters off completely...

    The only soy paper that I have seen was gluten-free, but it was in a store and I could read the label.

    Hi, I was vegetarian before going gluten-free and since I had lost so much weight, I decided to add meat to my diet. It certainly helped with the weight gain. I went to pescetarian a while ago (dairy, eggs and fish, but I have to be careful with soy and some other beans), so the way that things have translated for me is that when travelling, I will eat...

    Mustards with beer in them. There are a few mustard sauce kinds of things out there, but I don't eat enough of them to remember if they are gluteny or not.

    Have you ever thought of bringing your own fish sauce or your own homemade soy sauce substitute? Seems like I ran into a recipe when my soy issues were flaring and this one looks close. I would think that it would work fine with mushroom Better Than Bouillon for a vegetarian version... Open Original Shared Link

    When I first went gluten-free, I picked up a copy of Bette Hagman's The Gluten Free Gourmet Bakes Bread. In it, she has four mixes that she uses for baking just about everything - a standard gluten-free flour mix, a bean flour mix, a featherlight rice flour mix and a light bean mix, I think? So, when I convert recipes now, depending on how much time/energy...

    I never smelled the asparagus until I went gluten-free either and always thought that I was one of *those*. Funny though, I always prided myself on how healthy I ate/ran food through my body. Ha.

    I called the store and got Jesse, the gluten-free guru of the place who read me the ingredients, which all sounded fine (my word, there are a lot of ingredients in chile powder!) When I got home, my bf mentioned that his non-gluten-free dad had had a similar experience, so I'm guessing that it was just a virus, but I'll be sure to read labels before buying...

    I've been gluten-free for about five years now and have never had any trouble with spices, even mustard and hing (Frontier brand asafoetida which uses rice flour. Yesterday I was having some of the Turkish sheperd's salad that I made with chile powder from the bulk bin at the local natural food store and it felt like I was glutened. I'm supersensitive and...

    Burt's Bees was sold to Clorox in 2007. Seems like you could sock them with some of their own promises contained here: Open Original Shared Link such as We will always stay steadfast behind our values and commitment to making the best natural personal care products with the most environmentally sensitive packaging and nature-safe manufacturing processes...

    I use Bette Hagman's New French bread recipe in the skinny perforated pans from King Arthur flour for baguettes that come out wonderfully. I think with wider perforated pans it would probably work just as well - those holes are really too small for anything to seep through without some pressure being applied. Just put a baking sheet on the rack beneath...
