My dad always loved learning and cooking from all of the cultures he encountered, and he was a military man so he got to encounter so many. I miss his joyful “Gong hei fat choy!" (恭喜发财)

Happy New Year 🐉

Bob Moore, the founder and bearded face of internationally distributed Bob’s Red Mill food products, died Saturday.

He was 94.

Moore launched Bob’s Red Mill in 1978 with the help of his wife, Charlee, after their family embraced a nutritious diet full of whole grains. Bob’s Red Mill today offers more than 200 products — from whole wheat flour to classic granola and grain-free brownie mix. His grandfatherly visage — complete with cap, glasses, white beard and bolo tie — adorns every item, making his face recognizable on grocery store shelves in Oregon and beyond.

Rice cakes are an easy gluten free substitute for crispy rice cereal, if anyone is craving some peanut butter rice crispy treats. Crush them up, coat with melted marshmallow and peanut butter and press into pan or molds! ❤️

Spice blends and seasoning mixes often contain gluten and more sodium than most of us would like - making your own is easy! Small mason jars keep spices fresh and organized. A small coffee grinder works great for mixing and crushing your blend into a powder. It’s also a great way to personalize to suit your taste, since you can adjust amounts until they taste perfect for you.

Basic taco spice: onion, garlic, chili powder, cumin, black pepper and salt

Pizza blend: garlic, onion, nutritional yeast, black pepper, fennel, basil, oregano and salt - this will make anything taste like pizza and is awesome on fries!

Seasoned salt: garlic, parsley, salt, rosemary, paprika and black pepper

Going gluten free can be overwhelming and more than a little frustrating. I’m always available for tips and tricks!

One of the things I hear most often from people is that their baked goods aren’t turning out right with the cup for cup blends that are supposedly a straight substitute for wheat flour. To be brutally honest - there is no substitute for that texture. Look carefully at ingredients, be mindful of the amount of gums in them.

Give your gluten free flours more time to absorb liquid, and adjust amounts until it’s the texture you’re after.

If your dough or batter looked perfect, but turned out very dry bake for less time. Gluten free flours tend to not brown as well or as quickly, so golden brown can actually mean overcooked and dried out!

It gets easier. We’re rooting for you :)

It’s a soup kind of day - what’s your go to for cold winter days? We’re headed to the kitchen to do some Italian wedding soup to go with the garlic focaccia.

This looks delicious. I absolutely love every one of those flavors but have never had them all together.

This looks delicious. I absolutely love every one of those flavors but have never had them all together.

Flódni is an elaborate, multi-layer cake consisting of four different fillings—first plum jam, then walnut, apple, and poppy seed—each between sheets of pastry. https://bit.ly/3O2ahdR

It might sound like a dessert Turducken, but this treat is no novelty. The labor-intensive dessert has been one of the most potent symbols of Hungarian-Jewish cooking since the 19th century, when it was often enjoyed during Purim celebrations.⁠ https://bit.ly/3O2ahdR
