<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Since learning of my condition less than 2 years ago, I've been particularly disappointed in the various bread/flour replacements. For example, I used the Gluten Free Pantry's famous bread mix -- the end result never even made it into my mouth. I recently tried two mixes made by Sylvan Border Farms, distributed by Mendocino Gluten-Free Products, PO Box 277 Willits, CA 95490. 800-297-5399. One is a brown bread mix, which while not exactly wheat-based pumpernickel, is actually good. Apparently the flour combination they use, which includes amaranth and quinoa in addition to the usual culprits, removes the heavy rice flour smell and after-taste. The second product is their General Purpose Flour. Yesterday, I baked a banana bread with it (recipe came in the package) and brought it to a friend's house. No "fool your friends" here. These guys knew that if I baked it, it was GF. Friends, let me tell you. This banana bread was as good or better than any I ever tasted, and my friends agreed. I can hardly wait to try this fine flour in other recipes! -- Mark Kolber Denver Colorado [log in to unmask]
