Hi List,
I am new to the list but I've been on a gluten free diet for ten years so
I'm going to stick in my two cents worth right away.
 
To AMY  DONNER who has a Wellbilt bread machine and in the last few minutes
of baking, the top collapses.  It has been happening to me too the past few
months and I've done some experimenting.  I have a DAK bread machine.  The
machine checked out ok and I bought a new bottle of yeast (I use bread
machine yeast) which helped some, but it still collapsed a bit.
Today I tried another thing:  I added a little more bread mix than is called
for and the machine is now in the cooling phase after baking and it looks fine.
Also, I want to explain something.  I use spelt bread mix.  All the
organizations say no to spelt and I did too for seven years.  Then another
celiac told me he had tried spelt on the recommendation of his health food
store mentor and found it to be wonderful.  So I tried it with great
trepidation and found it okay FOR ME.  Please note that I am not
recommending spelt for you.  So far as I know spelt has never been tested
for alpha gliadin.
 
LINDA BLANCHARD gave an excellent review of "Against the Grain" --thanks
Linda.  Are you reviewing anything else soon, I hope?
 
JIM BARRON about cravings:  you didn't mention what to sustitute for a
craving for chocolate.  Look that up for us chocoholics, will you?
