Savory Sauteéd Oat Cakes

Makes : 4 servings (16 oat cakes) | Appetizers/Snacks , Main Dishes Vegetarian

I love oats. Their flavor conveys a mild earthy sweetness with a chewy, satisfying texture, versatile enough to star in both sweet and savory dishes. Oats are naturally gluten free, yet more often than not they’re cross-contaminated during processing or storage. I kind of thought this was bunk; I mean how cross-contaminated could they possibly be? But as it turns out, I always react poorly when I eat regular oats, showing the exact same symptoms I have when I ingest gluten. Since I’m so sensitive, I wasn’t sure I’d be able to tolerate certified gluten-free […]

Almond Panna Cotta with Dark Cherry Sauce

Makes : 6 servings | Desserts

My daughter looks forward to Valentine’s Day the same way she anticipates Halloween, the other “sugar holiday”. She loves making Valentines for her friends at school and collecting cards and goodies in her homemade “mailbox”. I know she also secretly hopes for an unexpected treat from me. I’m not a big dessert person–eating it or making it–but I can appreciate a little girl’s desire for something sweet and pink on a special day. Usually I cave and make heart-shaped pancakes with bright red berries for breakfast, but should I fail to plan ahead, then dessert […]

Chinese Radish Cake

Makes : about 50 1-inch cubes | Appetizers/Snacks Dairy Free , Vegetarian

In honor of the Chinese New Year, I’ve been at the stove creating several new gluten-free Asian recipes. Since the release of The Gluten-Free Asian Kitchen last fall, I backed off developing Asian recipes for a while, mostly to give my kids a break. (Ask any cookbook author what she’s currently working on and you’ll know what her family doesn’t want to see again for a year!) Of all the dishes I’ve been tinkering with, my favorite is this Chinese Radish Cake. Chinese Radish Cake, also known as Turnip Cake or Law Bok Gow, isn’t a […]

Red Curry Soup with Chicken and Rice Noodles

Makes : 4 servings | Soups/Stews Dairy Free , Soups/Stews

The thermostat inside my house currently reads a very chilly 58°. A winter storm knocked out our power last night, and 12 hours later it’s still not back. Sleeping wasn’t so bad; we bundled up with extra blankets and got a little cuddly, but once the sun came up this morning we were at a loss. My daughter and I passed some time with a rousing game of sevens, followed by a few hands of “go fish”. My son had absolutely no idea how to occupy himself without electronics during the two-hour delay before school […]

Eastern European-Style Mushroom and Buckwheat Soup

Makes : 4 servings | Soups/Stews Dairy Free , Soups/Stews

On almost any given day over the past few months, I’ve had a pot of soup simmering on my stove. Often it’s for me, but more likely than not I’m cooking up a brew for a sick friend or someone who needs a little boost. Soup nourishes and satisfies. It conveys warmth and comfort. Soup heals and hydrates. When I’m cooking for someone requiring nutritional support, I always make homemade bone broths and stocks, a satisfying yet time consuming effort. For everyday cooking, though, it’s entirely possible to whip up amazing homemade soup in short […]

Shaved Fennel and Parsley Salad

Makes : 4 servings | Salads/Sides Dairy Free , Vegan , Vegetarian

I’m having trouble getting back to work this week. After two weeks of holiday cheer, not to mention a month filled with parties and events, it’s hard to saddle up back at the desk. Staying gluten free over the holidays wasn’t much of a problem, but I always feel a bit off my game after so many heavy meals and a little more meat (and sugar) than usual. I welcome the new year with a tinge of excitement over getting healthier foods back on our table. One easy way to do this is by pulling […]
