Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

Have you ever tried to make gluten free pastry crust? Well I did last night, and it did not work out so well. The crust seemed, well, slimy and chilling it in the refrigerator for hours made it look okay until I tried to roll it out. It crumbled like landmarks in a disaster movie. I decided to think of a jugsaw puzzle, which, by the way, I am horrible doing, and I pieced and pressed and mushed together a crust, which will fool no one. I figure they can eat the pumpkin filling and whip cream and leave the crust. My son is gluten free, and thank goodness I asked him to make the other pie, a cranberry curd recipe. Hopefully he knows how to do this better than I do. I've made okay popovers, scones and muffins, but a while ago when I tried making chocolate chip cookies which turned out melted down and crispy. If only they had gluten free ready made pie crusts. They probably do, but it's too late for me. This baby is going to have to do. More stuffing, anyone?

  1. I make crumb crusts using nuts instead of cookies or crackers for Eric. Almonds work best. I share your pain though! Happy Thanksgiving!
