Last year, when health challenges sprung up alongside the quick desire to be free of all GMO wheat substances, Qalil.com decided to go gluten free.
If you have had the very uncomfortable feeling after you eat bread and end up feeling bloated and uncomfortable and probably even constipated, it may be necessary to ask your health practitioner if you may have gluten sensitivity.
Part of the black experience for many African Americans and Africans is the flatulence that follows ingestion of dairy products, being black ourselves, we decided we would go dairy free as well.
This meant that we either had to give up bread and bread products (including all those yummy pastries) or find gluten & dairy free products that we could enjoy. We happened upon Red Mill's Wonderful Bread Mix that could be used with a bread machine (or not, but since we already had one, yay!) and the success of this bread has been very high.
In the recipe shown in the video we used the entire package and got a very big loaf. If you are good with numbers and have a good scale I would suggest halving the ingredients.
The recipe for the bread can be found at the back of the package, but we found that separating the eggs was inconvenient and we ended up eating too much custard in order to use up the left over egg yolk. Here are our tweaks.
For 1/2 the package
- 1/4 Teaspoon of apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 plus 1/3 cups of almond milk warmed in the microwave
- 2 whole eggs
- 1/2 package of flour (usually between 240 and 245 grams)
- 1/2 packet of yeast (about 4 grams of yeast)
Red Mill Wonderful Breadmix gets our 5 star rating!
