Trying To Make Gluten Free Bagels
It went terribly. Let’s start with that. They were edible, hideous and took a while to dry out. However the bread texture inside was a bit like sourdough in a way. They were horribly dry and stale the next day as is a lot of gluten free homemade bread, it’s best fresh. When fresh it…

Chickpea Mayo, Surprisingly Awesome!
First of if it’s runny add more oil. I used a basic recipe from YouTube but I added 1/8 of a teaspoon of onion powder and garlic powder to much batch for a gentle flavour. It’s surprisingly good and like Mayo. I have a mild issue with eggs and thought I would try it out.…

Attempted Gluten Free Eclairs & Profiteroles & Failed
Please excuse my oven window. I have to take it apart to clean it and I don’t know how. I’m working on. In the oven looked great. Followed the instructions except I forgot to poke holes in them to allow steam out and they all fell flat! However I am worried that they will still…

Gluten Free Sourdough Discard Pancakes
I overcooked a few. I had a hard time getting the right temp going. I had a harder time getting the right consistency but when I did, these were really good with a nice taste to them. As I totally winged it I don’t have a recipe with measurements. Just a review of my trial…

Sourdough Discard Bread That Sort Of Worked
This is actually double size I just used an inappropriate sized loaf pan and didn’t proof as long as I could have. It wasn’t too dense though. It’s actually a lovely sandwich loaf texture. If I were to change anything, I would probably add some xanthum gum and be less timid with the proofing. If…

Gluten Free Sourdough Success!
The one on the right was fed and younger and fragile. The one on the left has a blend of 1:1 YesYouCan plain gluten free flour and rice flour with enough water to make it like a cake batter consistency. I made a loaf successfully and it had that sourdough taste. But I slightly underproofed…

Retrying Gluten Free Sourdough Starter & What Failed
First I did brown basmati but it went horribly. So I had to starter over. I tried brown basmati and white and it went horribly. There was just an undesirable flavour unique to the brown basmati. And I couldn’t get it to a fine enough grind. This was the jar on the right. I since…

Gluten Free Starter Is Fussy!
I’m retrying gluten free starter. I have had an awful time with it. It gets contaminated fast! I even made sure to use metal spoons sanitised in boiled water. My biggest issue is cost as well. And I don’t have a grain mill but I am going to need one. It’s over 15 dollars for…

My first Gluten Free Croissants
Many things surprised me. I was not expecting to get anything even close to working out. I was too cautious with the proofing. It had a bit of a jiggle but I could have gone further. I was very worried about over proofing. I cut the mini one and a medium one even though they…

Gluten Free Lamington Experiment
I made Lamington fingers because I was worried the cake would be too fragile and I made the icing quite wet so it might help keep the cakes moist. I had an idea to make meringue for my cake to be a sponge cake and the next day I saw a recipe from a celiac…
