Special Diets / Re: Gluten Free Bread - Cyndi O'Meara
« on: June 11, 2011, 02:21:11 pm »
I made this yesterday for my gluten-free visitor, and it got a thumbs up as being better than the bought stuff.

A light day today. Have a batch of ice cream now waiting in the freezer for its final spin in an hour or so. Will use the leftover eggwhites for a cherry or mango fruity dream for the kids afternoon tea, then a loaf of gluten-free bread tonight.

Chris, do try the bread. While there are heaps of recipes here as well, I find the one in the EDC works really well for me every time.

We had this for dessert tonight. I made it with soy milk as my husband prefers non-dairy (although I did use melted butter, but I guess I could easily have swapped for oil!). It was very nice, and my 10yo son would have happily polished off the lot if he'd been allowed. I think next time I will reduce the sugar a little bit.

Thanks MKR. That looks quite do-able - not too many hard to find ingredients. Also, I hadn't seen the UK website. Looks like it has some nice recipes.

Bread / Gluten-free bread
« on: June 06, 2011, 03:09:24 am »
Hi Everyone,
I have visitors coming this weekend, and need to make gluten and lactose free bread for one of them (or something that can substitute for bread!). Does anyone have a good gluten-free recipe I can try?
Thanks,
Jenny

Picked up my copy of Rainbow Recipes today. Really looking forward to trying some of these recipes. As a predominantly ovo-lacto vegetarian, I usually find vegan cookbooks a bit dull, but not this one. Still trying to decide which recipe to try out for tomorrow's dinner. Great job Aileen.

Bread / Re: Anyone heard of this "speed proofing"

I'm with Dede - now the weather is cool I preheat the oven to low. Then turn it off and put my Thermomix jug and dough in. Set the timer for 30 minutes and check whether it is at the top of the jug yet. I have also been known to put the bowl out in the sun on the trampoline. Works well too.

Recipe Requests / Re: Yoghurt for kids
« on: April 27, 2011, 01:42:37 pm »
Thanks Meagan. I just want to cut down on the shopping bill as yoghurt is a fairly big expense on my grocery bill. My 7-year-old will only eat vanilla yoghurt and is super fussy about most other foods too, so if I can wean him on to a slightly sweetened homemade yoghurt I'll be happy. I had some success with him when I mixed half homemade and half store-bought in his bowl. The 10-year-old is less fussy and loves fruit yoghurts, but hasn't been a fan of what I've produced so far! Some of my yoghurts turn out well set, others not so well set. So I'm going to try ordering a proper culture and work on my incubation technique first, then I'll go back to experimenting with flavours. In the meantime, I eat or freeze the results.

Could you stew some fruit and puree it before folding it through the yoghurt. I also love natural yoghurt that has had sultanas left in it overnight. They swell up and sweeten the yoghurt. You can do the same with sliced banana over night.

Still experimenting, without success to date, but I'm determined to crack it. I'm going to try the Cheeselinks 'mild' starter and see whether that is a good base to work from.

Recipe Requests / Re: Yogurt... still confused!
« on: April 27, 2011, 07:13:05 am »
My yoghurt making attempts are very hit and miss, I think partly because of the weather - often too cold, despite coddling my Thermoserver in a towel and insulated shopping bag. Can anyone comment on their experience with yoghurt makers? Not only Easiyo, but also on electric yoghurt makers?

My son is a Star Trek fan, so calls ours the 'Replicator' since it produces food so easily, just like in the show.

Recipe Requests / Yoghurt for kids
« on: April 14, 2011, 02:00:25 am »
Hi,
I have now made several batches of yoghurt, but sadly my kids won't eat it. They love shop-bought yoghurt, but don't like the tast of my homemade yoghurt. I have experimented with sugar to sweeten, but still no luck. Does anyone have a yoghurt recipe that suits kids' tastbuds? I have one child who will only eat vanilla yoghurt, while the other loves fruit yoghurts.
Thanks,
Jenny
