My Daily Adventures in the Kitchen

Wo geht's zum Gemüseregal How Sweet It Is bakerella.com The Herbwife’s Kitchen Since so many people have trouble with gluten these days, I’ve been trying to learn about gluten-free baking. There are some good resources out there (Gluten Free Girl is great), but the recipes usually include things I don’t have in my kitchen, like xanthan gum and guar gum, and lots of obscure starches. Gluten-free bread is supposed to be impossible without these slimy, gummy additives: they create the structure that allows the bread to rise. Hmmm. I know something else that’s real slimy. Today I made gluten-free bread with ingredients I already had around the kitchen. Since it was my first try and I wasn’t really expecting it to work, I just made a small loaf and didn’t measure very well, but here’s the gist of what I did: Whip up a few (I think it was two or three) leftover egg whites with two small eggs. Grind up about half a cup of flaxseeds in the blender. In the meantime, grind up about the same amount of millet in the blender. Let it rise in a warmish place for, say, 45 minutes.

Blue-Eyed Bakers - Blue Eyed Bakers Wo geht's zum Gemüseregal Sugarcrafter Joy the Baker — I feel like I’m grasping tight to the things around me these days. I’m probably the first to shrug off the change of season, the change of moving cities, and the change of traveling a ton as no big deal…. but it all adds up to matter and I have to admit I feel a little crazy in the brain. This season I’ve started a new workout routine. Since I’ve moved away from my beloved SoulCycle in California, I’ve started practicing Bikram Yoga in New Orleans. I’m terrible. I’ve also taken out my Tender cookbook (a Spring go-to) and am daydreaming my way through Donald Link’s Down South cookbook in an effort to acclimate myself to my new city and surroundings. Here are a few more Spring flings I’m into these days. 1•• I am very pale. 2•• I absolutely LOVE this Ellovi Body Butter. 3•• I’m thinking of sporting short fingernails with Blue Orchid Nail Polish as the weather gets warmer. 5•• When I was a teenager my mom told me that I had a ‘hat face’. 8•• Two Tone Sunnies. I love you!
