So J has been asking me (well, more like nagging me) for about 2 months now to make him some gluten free bread. Step 1 was to hunt down all of the ingredients, which of course were nowhere to be found at a normal grocery store since it calls for specialty flours and ingredients. And I almost gave up the cause when I finally found the last ingredient at Henry’s. All I needed was one tablespoon of xantham gum, but of course I had to spend 14 buckaroos on a bag of the stuff that would probably make about 50 loaves! Aaaanyways…I finally pulled together all of the ingredients and dusted off the old bread machine, which hasn’t seen the light of day since 2006 (the year we got married).
So 3 hours later the entire house smells like freshly baked bread and the machine starts beeping, letting me know it’s time to take out my perfectly shaped, cooked to perfection loaf of bread. And this is what I got.
Oh well…better luck next time. That being said, it actually still tasted alright and we made chicken pesto panini’s with it for dinner. So not a total loss J
Ha ha! Guess all that bad-for-you white flour is what gives bread its perfect loaf shape! PS Love the WS Entertaining book!
