I’ve struggled to find a satisfactory gluten-free bun that in some ways mimic a regular bun. So Emma and I are constantly on the look-out for new possibilities. The other day we found a “new to us” roll courtesy of Schar, it looked perfect, but many gluten-free breads do — until you taste them. So how’d this one do?

It appears we gluten-free eaters are some of the trendiest eaters in the US. Folks who watch the food industry say gluten-free will be hot again in 2010. That only bodes well for us right? Sure, but not so fast.

How are you grateful on this Thanksgiving, when it comes to celiac disease? You may wonder why anyone would even ask that question. But on this holiday I think it’s worth revisiting.

I am sure this post won’t be too dramatic, it will get right to the point — about these new gluten-free ice cream sandwiches I’ve discovered! If you’ve had a hankering for something like that — this is for you!

Thursday will be here before you know it. I am assigned to bake gluten-free pumpkin and apple pies. But do you have all the ingredients you need and are they safe? I’ve got a few reminders so you can save yourself from a last-minute rush to the store.

I had a great experience this weekend at Maggiano’s Little Italy located in Edina, Minnesota. It was the first time I had been there. I decided to try their gluten-free pasta…

I’m having a quiet wrestling match in my brain, trying to figure out how Emma could have been glutenized. If you’ve been there, you know you’re filled with questions as to how this could have happened. Or you rationalize other reasons why you might have symptoms. Is it a stomach bug? Nerves, Stress? It’s enough to make you crazy!

Butterball’s Fresh and Frozen whole turkeys are gluten free, but the stuffed turkey is not. But now the gravy packet in many of their items is gluten free too! They key word is many! Check out which Butterball turkeys and gravy packets are gluten-free, and which ones aren’t.

Yellow cake mix worth a try, but I’m here to make sure you expect the unexpected!

This week I did it. I ventured out beyond your typical gluten-free, white flour. I broke into my brand new bag of sorghum flour. That may not sound very exciting to some of you. But for a gluten-free baker (and I’m using that term VERY loosely), trying different flours is important. As I understand it, finding the perfect mix of gluten-free flours can be the difference between a favorite bread and a flop. So…which one was my bread?
