Tastes Devine Brand "BBQ Pork Rib mix" is gluten free and absolutelydelicious. I bought it from Fresh Choice in Merivale Mall but I haven't seen it anywhere else. It is not even on their website. You just sprinkle the spice on raw pork ribs and leave it in the frdge for an hour then bake them without adding anything else. The "mix" goes all sticky and brown and it really does taste devine. Well worth trying to source this in your area.

2halls cake (#44) again! I made the original again and also made a version with pears and ground ginger (in place of mixed spice and apples) which worked really well. Last night I made an apricot and cardamom variation with 1 diced apple and 2/3 cup soaked (in apple juice) organic dried apricots and 2 tsp ground cardamon for the fruit and spice. I also subbed chestnut flour (a good gluten-free, high protein flour) for the custard powder. For anyone not keen on buckwheat I'm certain this would work well with rice/soy/maize flours - ideally a mix of them. The method is really simple and seems to be pretty fail safe!

I am gluten free for 4 years - tested for coeliacs while GF and so tested negative - Sometimes I really struggle - I seem to not be able to have anything with dried fruit or nuts - why would this be - anyone know! I recently was brave enough to try Hubbards GF breakfast cereal and went down like a tonn of hot bricks! Sorry I havent got time to read the whole thread but have learned quite a bit from the few pages I have - I live on Venerdi 5 seeds GF bread (toasted) and manuka honey - I love it ((YUMMY)) and recommend it for tastecheers!

hi earthangel - yes I use bakels plain flour for everything. I don't care for the texture of their pastry mix so I just make my own using their plain flour.

found some good recipes at these websites also on the gluten free kiwi website under eating G.F in nz if u scroll down enuf it will give u a list of cafes and restuants that gluten free people have sugested well worth a look
If you are gluten intolerant and suffer from diarrhoea make sure you dont have any:seaweed, vege gums, silverbeet, etc and check all those additives and preservatives in packaged gluten free foods that can cause it too :)

make sure you wash any dried fruit believe it or not, some of it is dusted with flour that contains gluten ! :)
herika,

Be very careful of spices and herbs you buy most of them are processed on lines that also process gluten containing products :)
