During a recent grocery trip, I saw the most lovely parsnips out on display. This led to an impulse purchase of 3 huge parsnips. When I arrived at home I was at a loss — what do I do with parsnips? Normally I only put them in my vegetable stock, but this seemed a [...]

I managed to break my blog layout somehow. It might happen again, I’m in the midst of updating the css. Finally I have time to do things! I’m on night shift this week so I have the whole day to update css, cook, bake, read journal articles and post recipes. So get ready for a [...]

So, why haven’t I updated my blog regularly this month?
Good question, and the answer is: I have been sick. First with some sort of cold, then with some sort of virus, and this week I was glutinated by something. I don’t know what. When I’m sick I don’t write coherently, and I don’t want to [...]

When I was diagnosed with Dermatitis Herpetiformis (DH) I immediately looked up the ingredients in all of my health care products (soap, shampoos etc) in order to determine if they contained any gluten containing products. I had to change my soap and my moisturizer but my other regularly used personal hygiene products were gluten-free! Hurrah!
Getting [...]

I have taken this article from a press release published by Queen Mary, University London. The article in question was published in the March 2, 2008 edition of Nature Genetics.

Last week I wrote a post about the latest research in celiac disease. Today I received a comment about that that post from Kristina:
“I just read your summary of the latest CD research and am wondering what your thoughts are on this- my fiance and I lived in Nicaragua for two years. I drank water [...]

I have no idea where this photo came from. It was emailed to me. Made me giggle. I guess Mark Bittman does know how to cook everything!

Now, I’m not bothered by people bringing in gluten filled desserts to share with co-workers. To be honest it gives me a medical excuse to say no to food that I really shouldn’t be eating anyway.
But I’m really, really fed up with having to repeat myself. \Every other day I have a conversation similar to [...]

Just so we are all on the same page: if you mix too much cornstarch in with your turkey drippings, you will get a gravy that is closer in consistency to smooth porridge. Perhaps I can use this to spackle my bathtub. Gluten-free, turkey and sage flavoured spackle.
Other than that disaster, my turkey dinner shaped [...]

Many people have posted sunbutter or peanut butter cookie recipes on their GF site. I’m posting one that is just slightly different. Its based on Karina’s Sunbutter cookie recipe but its not exactly the same. First, I use both organic sunbutter and organic chunky peanut butter (nobody is allergic to nuts in our household) and [...]
