I got home from work today and I really wanted to make oatmeal bread. The trouble was that the recipe I normally make (from “Complete gluten-free cookbook by Washburn and Butt) called for a couple of ingredients I don’t have in the house at the moment. One of them being apple cider. I thought that [...]

There were some lovely free-range organic chicken drumsticks on special this week. I brought them home and whipped up this simple delicious recipe. Everyone will love this recipe, kids, adults, everyone! And its versitile — there are many different flavours mingling within the glaze that make matching side dishes easy. The asian flavours love rice, [...]

Last weekend I really, really, really wanted cookies. But I was honestly really, really, really too tired to make them myself. You see, I started a new job on Monday, so I spend all last weekend cleaning the house, making gluten-free bread and soups for my lunches, and generally getting prepared to not be at [...]

I just had to share this, as I love flour-less chocolate cakes, and I’m sure that many of you do too! The wonderful people at thekitchn.com asked Lisa Yockelson, author of the cookbook ‘Chocolate, Chocolate’ to answer the question:
Does cocoa content noticeably affect baking time and results?
In answering this question she makes special references to [...]

A new blog that I just recently found http://www.justhungry.com is a blog about Japanese and home cooking. The blog’s author, Maki, wrote a really interesting article about Japanese Brown rice and green tea porridge (genmai chagayu):
A traditional custom in Japan is to eat nanakusa gayu, or seven greens rice porridge, after the New Year’s feasting [...]

I was in the mood for soup so I whipped up this in no time flat! Super easy to make, and full of flavour!
Add less vegetable broth if you prefer — the soup becomes more chili-like.
Ingredients:
3 large French shallots (or regular onions if you haven’t any shallots), roughly chopped
3 cloves garlic, diced
2 leeks, greens removed, [...]

As a foodie I am strongly in favour of using fresh herbs in my cooking. The flavour of fresh basil, oregano and thyme in a pasta sauce is far superior than the flavour of the same sauce made with dried herbs. There is nothing wrong with using dried herbs, everyone relies on them from time [...]

I’ve been trying for a couple of weeks to find a gluten-free sandwich bread recipe that I really enjoy. My new job starts on Monday and I’ll have to bring lunches with me — sandwich time! But how can I bring a sandwich if I absolutely hate all of the gluten-free sandwich bread that I’ve [...]

I know this is a new blog, its a new blog because I’m just recently diagnosed with celiac. At the beginning I thought I was far more prepared to handle this disease, than I am, for a few reasons 1) I know people with the disease, so I leaned some gluten-free recipes and knew all [...]

Today I decided to take my old gluten filled mac and cheese recipe and create a gluten-free version. All I did was use potato flour instead of all-purpose and then used glutino brown rice pasta elbows instead of my normal kamut pasta.
All I can say is YUM! There really was no difference in taste! The [...]
