  • 30 Favorite Recipes
    Pamela’s 30 Favorite Recipes 30 YEARS OF CREATING DELICIOUS GLUTEN-FREE FOODS On April 1, 1988 I drove my very first forklift down the street from my family’s natural foods bakery to my own warehouse where Pamela’s Products was born. The family business was in its third generation, and up until that day, I had spent a lot of my life there, in many different jobs. I was originally a cookie packer, which was one of the few jobs available for a girl. I worked with Virgie who had six kids and whose husband Mike was our bread baker. No hairnets or gloves were worn, and there would be crumbs under my nails and I’d smell of cookies by the end of the day. With an aching back from bending over the BW6 wrapping machine six hours a day, I’d pull out the racks of heavy metal sheet pans filled with soya cookies and rice cookies. My cousin Piero, who came from Italy to work for my grandfather, was the cookie baker. Every time he pushed another rack of cookies into the packing area, I’d pray it was the last one for the day. My grandfather, father, uncle, cousins, brothers, and from time to time my sister, mom and aunt all worked there. It was truly a family business, which was one of the reasons I loved it so. In my time, I was a paper filer, a cookie packer, and a secretary. Then I started baking my own little line of bran products that I created.

  • How to Make the Best Vegan Pizza
    How to Make the Best Vegan Pizza By Courtney Davison February 02 2021 Vegan pizza is nothing new: In Virgil’s Aeneid (written around 30 B.C.), weary travelers top “thin wheaten cakes” with fruits, veggies, and herbs. That 2,000-year-old scene touches on the customizability of pizzas and flatbreads, which makes them a popular option among plant-based eaters today. Cheese- and meat-free pizza isn’t just for vegans; it’s a smart choice for anyone seeking to eat more healthfully. Pizza vs. Flatbreads So, what’s the difference between a flatbread and a pizza? Not much. Some purists insist that flatbreads should be made with unleavened dough, but many chefs have broken with that tradition. The only persistent practical distinction is crust-deep: Flatbread crusts tend to be thinner and more oblong than pizza crusts. The building blocks for pizza and flatbreads—dough, sauce, and toppings—are the same for both. How to Make Vegan Pizza Dough Traditional pizza dough is vegan. It simply consists of flour, yeast, sugar, water, and salt. However, some contemporary restaurants have added dairy to the mix, with “buttery” or “stuffed” crusts and whey in the dough—something to take note of if you’re trying to order a vegan pizza out. Making a vegan pizza crust from scratch is easy with our simple recipes: Try the whole wheat version or the gluten-free version. How to Parbake a Pizza Crust Parbaking refers to a method of partially baking a pizza crust and then freezing it for future use. Bake the crust for 15 minutes 1 O F 4 (continued) How to Make the Best Vegan Pizza By Courtney Davison December 19 2019 at 450°F; then freeze it.

Vegetable Antipasti 2· Seafood & Meat Antipasti 3. Bruschetta & Cheese 4· Insalata 5· Pasta 6· Pizza 7· Gelato & Sorbetto Glossary Sources Searchable Terms Acknowledgments About the Author Other Books by Mario Batali Credits Copyright About the Publisher Introduction I have written and spoken perhaps too many words about Italian food and how and why I translate its inherent excellence and deliciousness to the American table. I have been on and in several thousand television shows and explained to a very large audience the philosophy of the Italian family, the importance of the table in daily life, and the significance of regional variations and the fierce respect and love for these regional differences from town to town—and even from home to home on the same street. I have and will continue to espouse this Italian strategy, and I love to interpret it and illuminate it for the many of us who are Italians, whether or not we were born there—that is, we have ancestral roots there—and for the many of us who merely want to be Italians, at least at the dinner table. Us is a big word these days, and I do not use it lightly. Who are we? By we, I mean those like-minded individuals who seek out the delicious, the traditional, the innovative, the unique, and the geo-specific in the world of nutrition and pleasure at the table, almost always in the company of others like us or of the same mind.

  • Six Steamy, Hot GF Yeast Rolls
    Six Steamy, Hot GF Yeast Rolls from Gluten Free Cooking School written by Mary Frances Pickett Page 2 elcome to Six Steamy Hot Gluten Free Yeast Rolls – the cooking class that will make W hot dinner rolls a part of your life again. The number of gluten free foods that can be bought ready-made has increased exponentially in recent years, but it's still nearly impossible to find a pre-made, frozen, dinner roll. Why? If my experience is any guide, it's because it's really hard to make a good gluten free roll. But, you're about to learn how. In fact, you're going to learn how to make 6 different kinds of yeast rolls using just one recipe. We'll start with basic dinner rolls, and then I'll show you 5 techniques for shaping different sorts of yeast rolls. Goal: Your goal for this class is to bake a batch of dinner rolls that you'd feel comfortable serving to dinner guests. To complete the class you'll need to make two batches of rolls. The first will be the basic yeast roll recipe and the second will be one of the shaped roll variations. What To Expect: This class builds on the skills that you learned in Gluten Free Bread 101. We're going to make a slightly tighter dough and work on shaping it to make decorative free-form breads. You'll also get to see how a few tweaks to the bread recipe that we worked with in Gluten Free Bread 101 affects the bread crumb.
