Gluten Free Flour Mix

Gluten Free Flour Mix

3 1/2 cups White Rice Flour
2 1/2 cups Tapioca Flour
2 T Xanthan Gum
2 Packets (7 grams) Unflavored Gellatin - I used Knox brand
2 T Egg Replacer
1/4 cup White sugar

Mix very well and it looks just like regular all-purpose flour. 
My mom introduced me to this one and she uses it in all her baking recipes.  1 cup gf flour mix = 1 cup all purpose flour.

Happy Baking!

Cream Soups

Cream of Mushroom Soup
I had been looking for a cream of mushroom soup recipe for a while so that I could still make recipes I liked and not have to buy those horrible cans of it.  Most recipes I found looked too difficult and used ingredients I wasn't interested in purchasing or eating.  BUT!  I finally found one that works well for me.  No more buying those nasty and expensive, little cans. 

I got the recipe from the Gluten Free Homemaker (and she got it somewhere else) and I haven't changed it, but to save time I'm going to write it out.  Please visit her site though, because she has a lot of good stuff there.
Cream Soup
(makes one can worth)
1 cup cold milk
2 T cornstarch
2 T butter
1 tsp chicken bouillon or other flavoring - {You could really get creative here}
1/2 tsp salt - {oops! I lied!  I omit this because I don't like adding salt to stuff.}
Pepper to taste

Whisk cornstarch into cold milk.  Add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil in saucepan, whisking frequently.  Reduce heat and simmer about 1 minute until it thickens. 

As you can see from the picture above, I added mushrooms to mine and it came out perfect.  You can add whatever you like to make it how you prefer:  celery, chicken, etc.  Hurray for casseroles!
