Einkorn: A Wheat for the Gluten-free?
This post is brought to you by Jovial Foods. All opinions are 100% mine. There used to be a time when coconut milk could only be found in Asian grocery stores. Now, chain grocery stores have a section, if not an entire aisle, dedicated to the ingredients found in Asian cuisine. The same is true for Mexican foods and now gluten-free fare can be filed away in this category as well. Whether it's a voluntary ... Continue Reading
Recipe: Easy & Delicious Soaked Whole Wheat Bread
We talked about bread and carbohydrates in general a lot last summer. And I mean, a lot.

With that said, I'd like to take a ... Continue Reading

Is Your Wheat Bread Really Healthy? Probably Not.
I've been baking bread now for about a year now, and I can count with my ears the number of times I've bought bread since I started making our own: Fourth of July, 2012. We had hot dogs for lunch instead of dinner, meaning I didn't have time to make rolls. I spent $1 on a package of buns and they were absolutely awful. Never again. Family Vacation November 2012. We were out of town, in a rental condo on ... Continue Reading
