<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Dear Friends, Just a note to let you all know the result of my baking experiments with various brands of rice flour. I began with Bob's Red Mill white rice flour and the package had a wonderful muffin recipe on it which I was using and making delicious muffins I ate for breakfast (and snacks, since I usually added chocolate chips!) Well, I realized I was still seeming to have some minor problems and that I had never called Bob's. When I did call them, I just wasn't sure the woman knew what she was talking about, so I called another company: Arrowhead Mills. They also do not have dedicated lines for GF products (which I think isn't that great), but this woman went into great detail about how they take apart their equipment on Fridays and clean it all with steam and high powered blasts of air and how they produce most of their GF products on Monday morning after this cleaning process. They also do not release the first 50 pounds or so of GF flour they produce for sale just to make sure they aren't contaminated. I thought this was about as good a method as one could ask for (except for dedicated lines) and decided to support this company. Unfortunately, the flour isn't as fine and I couldn't make my muffins work with it. They sunk in the middle and were very hard and crumbley. At first I couldn't believe that it was "just" the brand of flour that made such a difference, but that was the only thing which changed. I have now switched back to Bob's Red Mill (since I think my distress was actuaLly caused by something else anyhow) and am having again wonderful results. I guess the best plan would be to order products from a company which does not make any gluten products, but while I am researching that and considering it, this is my plan. As far as those of you who suggested I try an asian foods store, I did go to one on Friday. It was very busy and I didn't want to ask anyone because everyone was doing already a hundred things, but I didn't see large bags of rice flour. Also, this store is very out of my way (sometimes it's worth it to pay more for a product which is more convenient!) Though I looked up more asian stores in the phone book and will probably try another one soon. Thanks for all your advice and I wish you all a happy week! -Christie in Chandler, AZ
