I can eat that! Gluten-Free Bread, Crackers & Muffins Playshop 6/22 & 6/29

As people learn their bodies don’t respond well to the wheat that’s in today’s diet, many food items containing it are easy to replace or eliminate. But some things, like bread and crackers, can be a real challenge to give up, and the gluten free versions of these items available in stores are wildly overpriced and usually pretty gross. When I started my gluten free baking business, since I didn’t need to eat that way at the time, my rule was that I had to want to eat it anyway. It took me many months and even more loaves, but I have developed a bread recipe that is delicious, nutritious, and even slightly easier to make than traditional bread. After we get the bread set to rise, we’ll tackle savory herb crackers and finally muffins. You’ll go home with knowledge, recipes, and an assortment of the products we’ve made.

6/22 or 6/29.  1pm-4pm

Oh My Condiments: Mustard, Mayo and Catsup Playshop 6/18 & 6/27

Face it: condiments you buy in the grocery store are pretty gross. They are full of preservatives, food dyes, high fructose corn syrup, and countless other unpronounceables. But when you get to a basic recipe, all three of these condiments have relatively few ingredients and are fairly easy to make. Another bonus to making it yourself? The taste, of course! Not only does the homemade version taste better across the board, but you can also tailor it to your own preferences. Me? I like a tangier, brighter mayonnaise, so I add more lemon juice. I’ll show you how to make and then tweak mayo, mustard and catsup and then send you home with a sample of all three with recipes, all in time for grilling season.
