celiac disease is a thing that some people have when you are allergic to gluten.
Gluten (say:
gloo-tin) is a protein found in wheat, rye, and barley — grains that are in many everyday foods. Most of us eat food with gluten with no trouble. But for some people, eating gluten can cause a reaction in their bodies. Someone who has this problem has celiac (say:
see-lee-ak) disease.
so that means that it's hard to know what you can eat and what you can't and you also can't have normal food like......
cake
white bread
wheat bread
pizza
and gluten is even found in some chips
I never want to have celiac disease but it's in my blood so I have a 50-50 percent chance that I'll have it, because my dad has it and my mom doesn't. Well I guess that's all I'm going to tell about
"the disease" right now.
Mom and I were Going to try to make a gluten free bread recipe that we had found online called "Alison's yeast bread" but we didn't have all the ingredients actually that's a understatement we changed the recipe so much that now its my recipe. I can't believe how lucky we were. We started out using this recipe...
Alison's Yeast Bread (Gluten-Free)
3 cups gluten-free flour mix(see below)
¼ cup sugar
3 ½ teaspoons xanthan gum
2/3 cup dry powder milk
1 ½ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons sugar
½ cup lukewarm water
1 ½ tablespoons yeast granules
¼ cup shortening
1 ¼ cups water
1 teaspoon vinegar
3 eggs
Combine flour, sugar, xanthan gum, milk powder, and salt in bowl of heavy duty mixer. Use strongest beaters. Dissolve the 2 teaspoons of sugar in the ½ cup of lukewarm water and mix in the yeast Set aside while you combine the shortening and 1 ¼ cups water in saucepan and heat until shortening melts. Turn mixer on low. Blend dry ingredients and slowly add shortening and water mixture and the vinegar. Blend, then add eggs. This mixture should feel slightly warm.
Pour the yeast mixture into the ingredients in the bowl and beat at highest speed for 2 minutes. Place mixing bowl in a warm place, cover with plastic wrap and a towel, and let the dough rise approximately 1 to 1 ½ hours or until doubled. Return to the mixer and beat on high for 3 minutes.
Spoon the dough into 3 small (2 ½ by 5) greased loaf pans or 1 large one. Use muffin tins and bake any remainder as small rolls.
GF Flour Mix:
2 cups white rice flour
2/3 cup potato starch flour
1/3 cup tapioca flour
Combine and measure amount needed for recipes.
Here's my recipe.
Mix these together in a heavy duty mixer with the strongest beater.
1c. Brown rice flour
1c. sorghum flour
2/3c potato starch
1/3c sweet rice
3 1/2 tsp xanthan gum
1 1/2 tsp salt
Dissolve the following in 1/2c luke warm water
2 tsp sugar
1 1/2 Tbs yeast granules
put into sauce pan and melt
1/4c lard
1 1/4c water
add
1tsp vinegar
3 eggs
into the lard/water mix while still boiling so eggs kind of cook in it, let cool for 2 minutes
mix every thing together on high speed for 2minutes
Then put bowl and all into a warm place for an hour.
After an hour take bowl out and put in mixer again for 3minutes on high speed.
Put in 2 greased pans for about 20minutes insert a thermometer and keep cooking till thermometer show 205 degrees then remove from oven and eat it hot or let cool.
Enjoy!!
You won't be able to tell it's gluten free!!
Get Steaks you like.
Put them on a hot grill that hasn't been used with gluten
Take the steaks off when they're just right.
Eat.
Eating gluten free can be very simple. And it can be very complex
