In addition to the baking mix, they also sell the flour by itself
under=20 the name "carbalose" for around 2.50 a pound. You might be able
to find=20 it cheaper through google or bizrate or ebay.
As to how it works, why don't you try it and get back to us?
One other consideration or possibility would be to look at more whole=20
grain breads. Reinhart's recent book on whole grain breads is quite=20
good. The breads I've made from the book taste very good, and being=20
made with whole grains should have lots of fiber. Thay offsets carbs
as=20 far as the late and unlamented Dr. Atkins was concerned, and I am
told=20 the fiber slows carb uptake whch is a good thing for diabetics
also. =20 Still, I don't know if that would work for you..... I'm not a
doctor and=20 I've never even played one on TV.
Thanks, Mike. I know about the Carbalose and appreciate your research. I
hadn't thought of whole grain flour. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll check
Bob's Red Mill and see if they sell it. Does Reinhart's book include
sourdough recipes?
