You can buy it in powdered form from health food shops or the ‘free from’ sections of supermarkets. However, we do get an increasing number of customers lookingforgluten-free food and this had got me thinking
It might be something to do with the fact that there'snothing fancy about banana bread - it's a delicious comfort food to be enjoyed at home, with a cup of tea and a book
My copy ofthe book is annotated with notes on how many times to multiply the recipe to feed sixty, how many times the recipe can be increasedbeforethe batter won't fit inthe food mixer, and spattered with lots of bits of chocolaty dough (now, of course, a hazard)
Besides, Easter is coming and I’ve already volunteered to decorate sugar cookie easter eggs with GG’s class – hopefully I’ll get an picture of those up beforethe holiday is over
rioting over the last piece of bacon and praising your local butcher as an everyday superhero. So you've got the sliced glutenfree bread, the moist and delicious veggie patty and at the last moment, you scrape a bit of mayo across the top bun and add a slice of cheese
Sincethen though I’ve messed around with a few different ways ofmaking syn free mash, and I can honestly say that how I make it now tastes just as good to me, as the high syn version ever did
For those of you who don't normally bake glutenfree or dairy free, you'll be relieved to note that the recipe doesn't call for loads of weird and wonderful ingredients, and you can findeverything you need in any decent supermarket
Also, not rubbingthe fat in gives the pastry an air of rough puff without theeffort. There's no need to rush thesethings, it took me years to get over my fear of wheat flour pastry and I mastered it eventually
This is a recipe you can’t really rush as these brownies are slow cooked inthe oven for over an hour to ensure they are softinthe centre and crumbly on top, so be sure to set enough time aside to let them warm through
Thebestthings were treats like brownies, that didn’t require any levening agents, and banana cake, which had the moistness ofthe banana to help save it from being dry and crumbly
So forthegluten challenged, avoiders, doubters and downright difficult among us, how do we get the same thrill that Mary Berry, Paul Hollywood, Mel and Sue and the contestants are deliveringinto our living rooms of a Tuesday evening
