Finally! We've determined that Glen's symptoms are lessened by simply cutting out gluten, so now comes the arduous task of deciding which family recipe favorites can stand the overhaul - and which ones will have to die a natural death. One thing I've learned is this: gluten-free bread is wicked expensive - $4.99 for a small loaf. I need to learn to bake the stuff myself, and then make breadcrumbs out of it. A small can of GF breadcrumbs is around $5.00!! The good news is that GF bread freezes amazingly well because it's so dense.
So I'll be experimenting today with something simple like Bob's Red Mill GF Bread Mix. I'll let you know how it turns out...but it's still pretty expensive for the mix, and I have to do all the work myself...but at least I'll get a sense of what baking GF bread is like.
