Home-made Gluten Free Gnocchi
We can all agree that store-bought gnocchi is pretty good. It’s hard to argue with a soft potato dumpling covered in your favorite sauce. However, once you’ve made home-made gnocchi, there’s no going back. Home-made gnocchi is more tender and has more potato flavor than the store-bought ones. If you enjoy social cooking, they are …
Simple Gluten Free Buttermilk Waffles
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, I love a good waffle. Before my diagnosis I received a fancy Belgian waffle press and practically every weekend I would make waffles and top them with whipped cream, lemon curd, and mint (it’s a killer combo, give it a try). This waffle recipe is simple …
Gluten Free Sesame Tahini Swirl Cookies
I’m a sucker for both sesame seeds and tahini, they’re just too delicious to pass up. I thought that a swirl of tahini caramel could be a phenomenal addition to a sugar cookie, and I was not mistaken! These sugar cookies are delightfully crisp around the edges, chewy in the center, and have a delicious …
Gluten Free Pumpkin Sage Dinner Rolls
When I was around 12 years old, my mom clipped a roll recipe out of a magazine to try for our Thanksgiving dinner. It was called something like “Winter Squash and Sage Dinner Rolls” and it had you roast your own winter squash to puree to make the rolls and tie them in these fancy …
Mock Gluten Free Flour Blends
There are a plethora of gluten free flour blends out there, some of them excellent, but despite this I don’t use flour blends when I bake. I have found that flour blends can be very restrictive. What happens if I make a recipe that was developed using Cup4Cup with King Arthur’s Measure for Measure flour …
Gluten Free Sour Cream & Green Onion Biscuits
I’m a sucker for a good biscuit. There’s something about the rich, flakey layers and the buttery flavor that I find irresistible. If I’m being honest with myself, it’s the butter that really does it. What can I say, I like butter. These biscuits check all those boxes for me while having depth and complexity …
Gluten Free Sourdough Discard Waffles
Back before my diagnosis, I liked a good old fashioned Eggo waffle. I especially enjoyed eating the chocolate chip ones while they were still frozen during summer; I just took them straight out of the freezer and ate them. Yes, I did this as an adult. For a while, we also had a fancy Belgian …
My Ingredient Preferences
I started reading cooking advice and cookbooks (really reading them, not just looking at the recipes) when I moved into my first apartment. Until then, it hadn’t occurred to me how much the very base ingredients that you use in everyday cooking change the way your food tastes. The types and quality of the oil …
Gluten Free Chocolate Almond Cutout Cookies
Those who know me know that I have always loved chocolate. When I was very young I used to pilfer bars of chocolate from my dad’s stash and hide in the closet to eat them. As an adult, I find that I’m much less interested in large amounts of highly sugary chocolate and much more …
