Yes, I'd be concerned with cross contamination as well - just as sushipup explained so well. I use a different mill for gluten-free flours (grains/beans/seeds) to avoid cross contamination and never use gluten-containing grains in it. I was hired to make a selection of GF cookies for Christmas for a person who has celiac disease, as a surprise from her husband. I wouldn't mill flour containing gluten in the kitchen for a week prior to making the GF foods, and throughly wiped down every surface in the kitchen before making anything GF. I use stainless steel bowls, rather than plastic to make sure there's NOTHING to cross contaminate things. My mother (now deceased) had celiac disease and I did a lot of food prep. to stock her freezer for her BEFORE there were so many things so readily available. There are a number of ingredients used in gluten-free baking that you're better off having than trying to substitute. These additional ingredients help to reduce dryness, increase volume and tenderness, and enhance flavor in baked goods and other foods. I was challenged to come up with cookie recipes, for a sorghum mill outside of town, that were made with "common" ingredients. WHAT, no xanthan gum, potato starch, arrow root, guar gum....??? But I did it! Instead of potato starch or potato flour I've used dried potato flakes (used for instant mashed potatoes), BUT, I made sure I found a brand at the health food store that didn't contain a lot of questionable ingredients. FYI - Potato FLOUR has a strong potato taste and I don't use it as much as potato starch. Potato STARCH, however, is often used in GF baking, especially in combination with other flours. I consider potato STARCH a staple ingredient for GF baking. Combining gluten-free flours with NUT FLOURS will increase protein and help mask the gritty texture often associated with GF flours. Nut FLOURS are made AFTER the nut oil has been expressed from the nuts and is a fine flour. Nut MEALS are made from the ground nut (oil included) and are more gritty than nut flour. You'll find the names are often interchanged, so buyer beware.... Ground almond meal can replace dry milk powder in recipes as a dairy-free alternative. You can also make your own nut milk at home to use as a dairy-free alternative.

So what is this about Glacier Milk? I did not see this in the Hunza Diet Bread recipe. Is it an integral part of the recipe? So far I have learned that it includes - water, buckwheat flour, molasses, honey, sea salt, unrefined sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, soya milk, and baking powder (without aluminium.

RECIPE: ingredients for hollywood diet recipe Posted by KAREN MOORE (leafdrop5@yahoo.com) on Mon, Aug 27, 01 at 17:51 Hi there, I have finally come around to posting this recipe on the forum. There are some recipes which stipulate this diet should only be done for 2 days and others are saying 3 days. Well I checked with my doctor and he recommended that I should only do it for 2 days at first and the next time I tried it I could actually do it for 3 days. ( Only if my body could handle it!) Also you will notice that the recipe that I used also has an addition of strawberries. KAREN Here is your copy of the "hollywood diet" (please feel free to forward it in its entirety to all your friends!) * 1 C papaya juice * 1 banana * 1/2 C green tea/ strongly brewed * 1 scoop soy protein powder w/spirulina * 1/2 C blueberries (can be frozen) * 1/4 C carrot juice * 1/4C apricot juice * 1/2 C non fat plain yogurt * 1 pack sweet and low * 6 large strawberries Blend all of the above together till smooth.
