What the heck is going on with gluten?
Two major grocery stores in my area no longer carry it. I may have to revert to health food store and a special order. Even cudn't find it on barryfarms.com which used to be a good supplier for weird things.
Is this maybe the result of this gluten-free kick now? I believe I read that only 2% of the population really needs to live gluten-free, but everyone takes these scares to heart, or so it seems. I use the gluten to mix my own bread flour. |

I called the Whole Foods nearest me but they don't stock it anymore however, however Rainbow does (vital wheat gluten, $5.25 lb) - so I'd suggest calling your local food cooperative... or maybe a health food store. The internet tells me that Bob's Red Mill and King Arthur sell it - so maybe you can talk to a store that stocks a variety of Bob's Red Mill items and get them to order it for you. The good news is that I saw nutritional yeast the other day in the bulk bin section at Whole Foods, so that means I won't need to trek across town for it. -- Avoid cutting yourself when slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them. |

They still have an extensive website but I just cudn't spot the gluten. Also cudn't get fresh cranberries today either - must be too early in the year. My frozen 2013 supply has been exhausted.

No, I'm talking about adding extra gluten to flour - never heard of Barry Farms until you mentioned it. In any case, I'm at the "all gluten is the same" point and not buying anything special over the internet when I have nothing to compare it to. > > Also cudn't get fresh cranberries today either - must be too early in the year.

THe amount added is based on the type of flours used in breadmaking but generally you want to add 1 TS per cup of flour used. Try it at that level then up it if you do not get the rise you wanted. -- |

The Cattleman's Beef Association actually tried to sue her for infringing on business. --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!

Ya can't even find THAT anymore. So, my modus bakerandi has been to buy el cheapo AP flour for other than bread making, and KA plus adding the gluten for ABM productions. I have tried the bread recipe using the el cheapo and no gluten and the loaf was pretty puny. |

Barry Farms isn't like it used to be. I used to order quite a lot from them but they gradually began changing what they sell. And for a time, their website was totally down but I could find some of their products (seemingly excess) at Ebay. I have not tried to look for gluten. I just bought the pre-made bread flour. |

I used to order stuff from them when I lived in CA, but now I can't remember what. In NY, they were my source for dried vegetables and beans that I couldn't find locally. They are a great source for gluten free things if you need those. |

Note that if you use the 1 symbol, T is tablespoon and t is teaspoon. Generally it depends on the gluten level of the flour. Better for Bread and King Arthor (KA) normally need nothing added. Regular all purpose can use a ts (t) per 2 cups to make pretty much the same as 'bread flour'. Now whole wheat and rye flours may need closer to 1 TB per cup but I'd start lower and test it first. -- |
