So, as most of you know, I've been wheat-free for 8 1/2 years. During that time, I discovered Rudi's spelt bread, which to my taste was the best, most delicious, "closest-to-real-bread" I found. When I started going completely gluten-free this February, I realized that the hardest thing to create without gluten is actually bread. Imagine my excitement, then, when I learned that Rudi's started making a gluten-free line of breads in July. I got some last weekend, and it is great!! Great texture, flavor and it holds together well. I'm soooooo happy! And, they sell it here in Corvallis at the Co-op (and perhaps some other places).
Also, last Saturday I went to the Gluten Free Food Fair at a store called LifeSource Natural Foods in Salem. I had some super great onion rings made with a mix called The Celiac Maniac Batter Mix. It is so new that he didn't even have it in the store yet, but did sell me a bag he had with him. I went with Cynthia, a friend from work, and her roommate, Sarah. It was fun to see all these locally-made gluten-free products, and to get to taste them, too. I heard about this store and fair as I was searching online to see where to get Authentic Foods flours, which had been recommended in a cookbook. They sell this flour in bulk, which is super, so I'll try it out and let you know.
