1) Found some websites for recipes, getting an idea just how much work it'll take to get a passable loaf of bread going! (example: http://glutenfreecooking.about.com/od/glutenfreebreads/r/sandwichbread.htm)
2) Went out and got what I figured was as good as possible bread out there, to compare tastes with - "Udi's Gluten Free Whole Grain Bread." It's frozen for freshness, so I toasted a few slices and ate with butter - yum! So.... maybe I can make this work!
3) Went shopping and compared prices for the components I'll need - mixers, bread loaf pans, and even bread machines that do all the work for ya! Work smarter, not harder, eh? ;-)
Next steps - to put together a recipe and schedule time to bake!
You'll be lacking the love in your food if you use a bread machine. The real pleasure in baking is doing it by hand and you have a much better control of everything. Good luck though cuz without gluten, it sure is gonna be sticky! I would advise you to buy some wax paper to handle the dough.
ReplyDeleteMan, I love eating the bread, not makin' it! ;-)
ReplyDeleteWax paper, check. The recipes I see mention dusting stuff with GF flour to keep the stickiness to a minimum, but I appreciate the warning! Just out of curiosity, what do you attribute the stickiness to?
