For a gluten-free diet, individuals with Celiac disease should eat gluten-free foods exclusively.

However, be aware that commercially purchased biscuits, cakes, bread and pasta that are gluten-free are rather expensive and the taste usually leaves a lot to be desired.

Converting old favorites into gluten-free recipes will surely help and by doing this, you will no longer have to eat that almost tasteless gluten-free food sold in health food shops.

You can make rice only bread at home which is sure to taste better than the store bought stuff.

When baking, you can substitute wheat flour with flour that is gluten-free. If you want to make your own flour you can do so by using 2 tablespoons of potato flour and 1 teaspoon of pre-gel starch.

If you cannot find pre-gel starch you can also use guar gum or xantham gum. Add 1 cup of rice flour to the bowl along with half a teaspoon cream of tartar and half a teaspoon of bicarbonate soda.

Gluten free cooking is a lot of fun most of the time but for some people this could be rather frustrating. To make it more fun, it would be interesting to note that a lot of nations around the world survive without using flour. Mexican food for example is usually a good way to start your gluten-free diet. Gluten free cooking opens up a whole new world for those with celiac disease by discovering recipes and cuisines the world over.

Thai food is also gluten-free, so maybe it is time for you to visit a Thai restaurant or learn how to cook some Thai recipes so you can add some delicious new dishes to your gluten free cookbook!
