Hi Gang,

I am a allergy newbie and a new member. I don't have food allergies, so
I might not be that helpful to others. I did want to recommend a
product that I tried a few weeks ago. This natural supplement really
helped the itchiness and irritation I felt in my body.  Might help with
food stuff, don't know.  Here's the information:

Take Care,

Julie

I just got e-mails back from all three of the places that sell Expandex saying that it's not kosher because they repackage it. So I'm not sure how to find hekshered Expandex (I believe the original product IS certified, by OK) in a consumer sized package. I've e-mailed the company and will let you all know if/when I hear back.

Thanks for the info, Brenda-Lee!

The difference between tapioca and manioc is that chebe uses a true flour as opposed to a refined starch.  It contains the natural proteins which a refined starch does not.  In Brazil one can purchase many different kinds of manioc from meal to flakes to flour to starch.  That's what makes chebe mixes work differently from standard north american fare.

We are trying the expandex tapioca in some of the Ms. Roben's mixes to see how it works too, and are seeing some good test results, especially for cakes, but I haven't had word yet about how it works in our breads.

Isaiah,

Thank you for contacting us.  In April we moved our packaging from a third
party to our own building.  Since then, we have not used the kosher marking
on our packages.  We may go back to this in the future, but currently our
products are not certified.

Ailsa,

I haven't tried doubling or tripling it - In fact I don't think I've ever doubled or tripled any of my breads. Good luck, I hope it works, because this would be a really nice bread to make for holiday meals. Let me know how it turns out.

Ailsa,

Thanks - I'm so glad the post was useful to you.

 The rest, I won't know until I've cooked it.


I am the same way :)
 
 You asked;

"Is the rule against spicy food between Rosh Hashanah and Simchas Torah a hard and fast one, or just a local custom that I can choose to discard?"



I don't know - I don't think it's hard and fast, I think it's like most of the other food customs, which are minhagim that you follow only if your family and community does. I've never heard of people taking it as seriously as gebrokts, because gebrokts is an interpretation of halacha or a fence around a mitzvah I think - Whereas I don't believe that the spicy food thing is. But I could DEFINITELY be wrong. I'm sure that as with any other minhag there are people who swear it's hard and fast law :)

For better or worse, I'm cooking for a bunch of religiously liberal Jews this year (my parents' friends), who mostly just care that there is plenty of honey and apples in the food I make.

Wow, that post has got to be one of the most useful blog posts I've ever SEEN!  Thank you, thank you, thank you.  (I've subscribed to your feed on LJ, so I saw it a while ago and sent the link to my husband as well.)

Also, I'm wondering if anyone wants to share what their menu plans are
for the upcoming holidays?

Plans?  You want I should have plans already?  I do know I'm making honey cake and applesauce and "something with chicken and honey and curry and peaches" (that's how I described it to my husband) that I'll probably serve with brown basmati rice.  The rest, I won't know until I've cooked it.

Is the rule against spicy food between Rosh Hashanah and Simchas Torah a hard and fast one, or just a local custom that I can choose to discard?  I mean, I now it's a minhag, but there are minhagim and minhagim, if you know what I mean.  If it's just the HHD equivalent of gebrochts....

revised and updated for 2007.

You can find photos and more info about the recipe here:

Enjoy!

GLUTEN-FREE ROSH HASHANAH HONEY CAKE (Version 2.0)

[ Gluten-Free / Soy-Free / Nut-Free Option /
Dairy-Free / Pareve ]

3 cups Carol's Flour Blend
3/4 cup turbinado sugar or white sugar
2 tsp gluten-free baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp xanthan or guar gum
1 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
4 eggs
1 /4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup applesauce
2 tsp finely grated orange zest
1 cup honey
1 cup orange juice

Optional: Honey, toasted almond slivers, pecan pieces and/or powdered
sugar for topping

Preheat oven to 350 F (175 C). Cover the bottom of a 9" circular
baking pan with parchment paper, then spray the inside of the pan
lightly with dairy-free baking spray. If making miniature cakes using
silicone mini-bundt or mini-fluted cake pans, place pans on a baking
sheet and spray lightly with baking spray. Well-greased loaf pans may
also be used.

Stir together flour mix, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg, cinnamon,
salt and sugar in a medium bowl.

Separate the eggs. In one large mixing bowl, combine egg yolks, honey,
oil, applesauce, orange juice and orange zest. In a separate medium
bowl, beat egg whites with an electric beater until they form stiff
peaks.

Using a whisk or hand beater, slowly add the flour mixture to the wet
mixture. When thoroughly combined, fold the egg whites carefully into
the batter, stirring very gently just until the ingredients are fully
combined.

Immediately pour batter into pan/s and bake for approximately 20
minutes (for miniature cakes), 40 minutes (for round cakes) or 45-50
minutes (for loaves), or until a toothpick inserted into the cake's
center comes out with just a few crumbs on it. Watch cakes carefully
to make sure that the edges do not burn. Remove cakes from oven and
allow to cool before carefully removing from pan/s and placing onto a
cooling rack. For bundt and fluted pans, once the cakes are cool you
can use a sharp serrated bread knife to gently remove the domed
"bottoms" of the cakes (the side facing up when you baked them) so
that they pretty cake "tops" can sit flat on a plate, if you wish.

Immediately before serving, fill bundt/fluted cake centers with nuts
or fruit (if applicable) and sift powdered sugar over them or drizzle
cake/s with additional honey.

I need to learn how you all handle the holidays and what you serve. How to make a GF Challah, and Passover,etc. Any help and Guidance will be appreciated. Looking forward to hearing from you all.

Thanks for shedding some light on why there are so few kosher dressings -- in the end, the camp was able to come up with a dressing (I'm not sure of the name).  I did find that some Cain's dressings were kosher, and some were gluten free, although I didn't have a chance to figure out if any of them were both!  Similarly, some Ken's Steakhouse dressings fall in both categories, although again I didn't have a chance to compare.

I have had SUCH a hard time finding kosher salad dressings that I don't even bother anymore. My understanding is that the thing with salad dressings is that vinegar that's made from grapes has to be kosher (grape products are their own special area of kashrut) which is why it is hard to find hekshered grape juice and vinegar except specifically kosher brands sold at kosher groceries (in my experience at least)... and even the dressings that aren't made with wine or balsamic vinegar are often made on the same equipment (same reason plain old tomato sauce is hard to find... it's made on the same equipment as treyf meat and cheese tomato sauces).

Couldn't you just take an empty bottle, fill it up with some dressing you make at home (a simple mixture of dijon mustard, balsamic vinegar, olive oil and garlic powder is my quick fave) and send it with her? It should stay good unrefrigerated for a while. Ultimately it will be healthier, cheaper and probably tastier than the storebought kind. I have a special dressing bottle I use for this. I've never had a problem leaving a dressing out for a few days if its mostly just oil and vinegar.

If you're dead-set on storebought, I recommend starting with a list of kosher salad dressings and then investigating their ingredient list for gluten. The OU site is a good place to start. Go to http://www.oukosher.org/index.php/consumer/product_search and enter "dressing" and see if you come up with any brands that you've seen at local stores.

I haven't verified or confirmed the accuracy of this but a quick online search shows someone on a gluten-free bulletin board saying "Hidden valley ranch produces a Kosher ranch dressing powder mix"

In addition, Bragg's makes a bunch of delicious salad dressings that are gluten-free and kosher but I'm not sure with which hechsher (maybe KSA?) - I haven't had them for a while. You can find them at most healthfood stores and maybe even some supermarkets. I love their Ginger & Sesame dressing. Whole Foods is likely to have them.

Good luck - And please let us know what you find!

I have had SUCH a hard time finding kosher salad dressings that I don't even bother anymore. My understanding is that the thing with salad dressings is that vinegar that's made from grapes has to be kosher (grape products are their own special area of kashrut) which is why it is hard to find hekshered grape juice and vinegar except specifically kosher brands sold at kosher groceries (in my experience at least)... and even the dressings that aren't made with wine or balsamic vinegar are often made on the same equipment (same reason plain old tomato sauce is hard to find... it's made on the same equipment as treyf meat and cheese tomato sauces).

Couldn't you just take an empty bottle, fill it up with some dressing you make at home (a simple mixture of dijon mustard, balsamic vinegar, olive oil and garlic powder is my quick fave) and send it with her? It should stay good unrefrigerated for a while. Ultimately it will be healthier, cheaper and probably tastier than the storebought kind. I have a special dressing bottle I use for this. I've never had a problem leaving a dressing out for a few days if its mostly just oil and vinegar.

If you're dead-set on storebought, I recommend starting with a list of kosher salad dressings and then investigating their ingredient list for gluten. The OU site is a good place to start. Go to http://www.oukosher.org/index.php/consumer/product_search and enter "dressing" and see if you come up with any brands that you've seen at local stores.

I haven't verified or confirmed the accuracy of this but a quick online search shows someone on a gluten-free bulletin board saying "Hidden valley ranch produces a Kosher ranch dressing powder mix"

In addition, Bragg's makes a bunch of delicious salad dressings that are gluten-free and kosher but I'm not sure with which hechsher (maybe KSA?) - I haven't had them for a while. You can find them at most healthfood stores and maybe even some supermarkets. I love their Ginger & Sesame dressing. Whole Foods is likely to have them.

Good luck - And please let us know what you find!

Hi -- I'm trying to find a gluten free, kosher (U) salad dressing that
I can send to a shabbaton with my daughter. She prefers cesear or
balsamic vinagrette, or Italian in a pinch.  For some reason, it seems
really hard to find salad dressing with a U.  Any ideas would be
appreciated, particularly of items that can be found in a Whole Foods,
Trader Joes or mainstream supermarket.  Thanks so much.

I think the site Brenda-Lee is talking about is http://www.bookofyum.com - It's a "blogging event" and the "roundup" (the post where Book of Yum links to all the different blogs who posted tributes to Bette) hasn't been posted yet but should be up within a few days at bookofyum.com

My own tribute is here:

http://glutenfreebay.blogspot.com/2007/09/baking-for-bette-sorghum-bread.html

In my own post there are links to the specific post Book of Yum made about the event and the guidelines.

Enjoy!

After Mrs. Hagman passed away a week ago Sunday, I wondered if there would be a run on her books.  There was a very nice site where people could post pictures of food they had made using her recipes as a form of tribute to her.

Steve,

I didn't end up baking it this weekend because I didn't get the recipe in time. I will try it this week if I have the chance and of course I will let everyone know how it turns out! I am totally a cooking exhibitionist <grin>, what with my blog and all.

Isaiah

How did the challah turn out?  Post pictures!  I tried a recipe for
challah last year that wasn't that great - definitely french toast
material, but for sandwiches, not so much.
