Real food for active lives: Simple and delicious real food - always gluten-free & dairy-free
Terry Hope Romero recently released her latest cookbook: Viva Vegan!: 200 Authentic and Fabulous Recipes for Latin Food Lovers . Thumbing through the index, I realized she must be Venezuelan. Sure, she includes recipes from all across Latin America, but I was immediately biased when I saw the words arepas, mechada, caraotas, and cachapas.
Placinta cu branza si marar is traditional to Romania and the Republic of Moldova, a country where I spent a year as a Peace Corps Volunteer. With talk of a reunion trip amongst my fellow volunteers, I was feeling a little nostalgic for some of their food. With some modifications I was able to craft a GF, DF version of the dish that tasted pretty close to the original.
I’m not much of a bread person – I prefer tortillas. So if a gluten-free bread recipe is not outstanding – it doesn’t have to taste like gluten-based bread, but it does have to stand on its own legs – I don’t really want to spend time making it. Today, I decided to try Roben Ryberg’s French Baguette to see if it would make the cut.
