Ever heard of Xanthum Gum? It’s the secrete ingredient people use to make non gluten stuff glue the non-gluten flours to make bread. Apparently, this is one of those occasions for too much of a good thing is a bad thing. Needless to say, I’m back to making adobe bricks…that taste like beans and almonds.
My mistake was thinking that I would need on tablespoon of Xanthum Gum for every cup of flour…seemed like a fair trade-off, so this time around I’m going to make it with a teaspoon of XG for every cup of flour. And hope, pray, that it’s sticky enough to rise together but not too sticky to stick to the bottom of the pan….or for a week at the bottom of your stomach.
