People with celiac diseases should avoid gluten totally to live a healthy life, but it is rather difficult. As many food recipes are made of flour it is practically impossible for them to avoid gluten. So, to avoid gluten, we have to find alternatives for these gluten filled foods.
With a little strain we can find a number of recipes free from gluten and delicious for taste. You can thus be free from celiac disease. Here are a few ways to have gluten free recipes in your daily diet.
All Purpose Flour
Nearly, every baking flour has, some gluten content. By making gluten free all purpose flour you can avoid problems connected with gluten and transform all baking recipes in to gluten free recipes. By mixing one cup brown rice flour, 1.1/4 cup white rice flour, cup potato starch, 2/3 cup tapioca starch, cup sweet rice flour, 1/3 cup arrow root starch and two tea spoons of xantham gum, you can form an all purpose flour in exchange for regular all purpose flour free from gluten.
Pasta
Pasta is another staple flour, is a potential source of trouble for celiacs. But of late it is not posing much of a problem. Rice noodles are a great substitute for traditional pastas made with wheat flour.
