Hello everybody. Back again.
Well, here is the thing. I stopped making my bread for a while, turns out
my wife has some food allergie issues, and seeing as how she just really
loves my home baked sourdough bread and now cant eat anything with wheat or
gluten anymore, I have thusfar refrained from baking my bread. She wants me
to go ahead and bake for myself and friends, but I just cant fill the house
with fresh bread smells when she cant indulge. So far we have tried some of
the available gluten free breads from area markets and after a slice or two,
threw them out (horrid and pretty expensive too). Seem to be made mostly
from rice, tapioca and bean flour and starchs (potato & corn) along with
guar and xanthan gums, yeat and salt. Far cry from sourdough. But I am
hoping someone may have a suggestion for something we may try, I would like
to have bread on our table again, to enjoy -with- my wife. Her allergies
include wheat, gluten, eggs and dairy. She is avoiding oats as that contains
some gluten also.
Is any hope out there for us?

I don't think you're going to be able to reproduce the sourdoughs
you're used to, but start he

It gets a bit more complicated with your wife also being allergic to
dairy and eggs, but do start your searching amid the web pages that
offer celiac support.
Good luck.
