Be...Yes.. the total water is 3/4 cup plus 3 tbsps. Because gf baking is soo sensitive to humidity the amount of liquid needed can vary a great deal. So withhold the 3 tbsp. and add if needed. Your dough should be more like thick batter than what you would look for in wheat flour baking.

This recipe is the one I want to try, but I am confused. The ingredient list mentions instant yeast, but your lastest secret with the unflavoured gelatin says to only use the active dry. A few questions: I want to use a bread machine--can I proof the active day yeast and then put it on top of the dry ingredients like you would if you were just using instant? Can I proof the instant yeast and pour the mixture on top or do I have to use teh pectin crystals if I want to use the breadmachine. Could I just put the dry pectin crystals and the instant yeast on top of the dry ingredients in the bread machine. Whenever I do this technique I leave out whatever baking powder the recipe calls for, right? I just got my bread machine yesterday, so this will be my first attempt.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454531829676162260.post-62635594284923597022012-08-04T23:58:10.197-07:002012-08-04T23:58:10.197-07:00What type of molasses did you use?What type of molasses did you use?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454531829676162260.post-24580131794529651982012-07-29T19:41:30.393-07:002012-07-29T19:41:30.393-07:00Love this recipe, reminds me of a light rye bread....Love this recipe, reminds me of a light rye bread.

I did mean the crystals used to make jam. <br />But I have since found something that works even better and use this trick for ALL my yeast gluten-free baking. <br />Mix one tsp. of sugar with 1 tsp of unflavored geletin, add your warm water, wisk, and add your active dry yeast(not instant) to proof. <br />I found then I don't have to bother with baking powder or pectin to help hold the rise. The dough rises wonderfully and quickly! <br />Hope that helps !!Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02029451742280017744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454531829676162260.post-4944040986383127572010-09-19T06:36:53.445-07:002010-09-19T06:36:53.445-07:00I just found this wonderful and I thank you all fr...I just found this wonderful and I thank you all from the bottom of my heart. One of my sisters has Celiac Disease. She struggles at family get togethers with the lack of GF food. We make GF whenever we can. There are fabulous recipes here that I am determined to share with her and the rest of our family. <br />My question today is about the certo crystals.

If you have a good coffee grind...Dear KipperCat... If you have a good coffee grinder (have a 10.00 grinder that I keep for my gf flour/nuts) you can use that. It is a bit time consuming but it works quite well. <br />Buy the small white beans in your local grocery store. <br />Grind some of the beans in your grinder, then pour into a fine seive, sift out the fine flour and regrind what is left in the seive. You will have to repeat the grinding several times. <br />But your end result is quite satisfactory. <br />Blessings!!Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02029451742280017744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454531829676162260.post-73130244493224274492010-02-07T12:03:20.699-08:002010-02-07T12:03:20.699-08:00Can you grind the bean flour in a food processor o...Can you grind the bean flour in a food processor or blender?

I...I feel really lost with these flour ingredients. I can usually look at a recipe and say "oh no don't have X, I'll use Y, but 1/4 cup less. Why I think I'll have it with soda, which means, hmm, have to use buttermilk/yogurt/sour milk and walnuts or figs. Etc. <br /><br />Where does the bean flour fit? Is it a flour as an ingredient, or a protein? Maybe, it's a leavening? <br /><br />Is it really true I can't use my barley flour? I see studies that say yes, others that say nooooo you cannot. <br /><br />Help Mme Julie. Maybe you need to make a post about the topic, substitutions, what works where and why. <br /><br />I cannot afford, physically or financially, to experiment. <br /><br />anon1Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454531829676162260.post-73623685980219085782009-11-25T13:05:35.652-08:002009-11-25T13:05:35.652-08:00Can't wait to try this!
