Guest guest Posted January 16, 2003 Report Share Posted January 16, 2003 I have a technical question: I know that in making cakes, muffins, etc. with " regular " wheat flour, you don't stir because you don't want to develop the gluten. So in these non-gluten recipes, I have wondered why the directions say no to stir too much? I know it sounds pickey, I don't mean to be difficult.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2003 Report Share Posted January 16, 2003 Sometimes when one over processes non-gluten flours they react by becoming tough. It really depends on the recipe. For example, with Noah's Bread if it is stirred or beaten it will not rise because the processing has stirred out the fizz from the tonic water and hence no bubbles in the batter. In others the exact opposite is recommended and you will find recipes which tell you to use the best mixer you can find and whip it to add the air. I think it's a process of trial and error most times. BL ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What does Yhwh Elohim require of you?
