I recently had a friend whose daughter was diagnosed with Celiac. She was really upset, rightfully so, and is really intent on focusing on what her daughter can't eat. I think it is incredibly important to be vigilent, especially when there is a health concern. That being said, I think you should focus on what you CAN eat. This week, I was reading Gluten Free Girl and she posted the most amazing salad. I especially loved the colors in it, given it is winter and everything is sooo drab. I knew the moment I read the recipe I would love it and indeed I did.
Even though there is so much I can eat and usually I am not down it...I LOVE challah. I am Jewish and this is a weekly staple in my diet. I mean this WAS a weekly staple in my diet. I always thought that as a Jewish mom, I would perfect the art of making a good challah. So today, while working at home and multi-tasking on a conference call, I kneaded the dough, let it rise and popped it in the oven. It really did look fantastic, only I couldn't eat it. Maybe, somewhere the GF gods and goddess will invent a GF challah that doesn't taste gritty or make me sick.
