I receive numerous inquiries about gluten-free bread and how to make it. 🍞 Gluten-free bread presents several challenges, such as a lack of rise, a crusty texture, a corn-like taste, the presence of a rice aroma, and a sandy texture. 🌽🥲🍚 In order to address these issues, it is important to consider the following key points:
1️⃣ Accuracy in measuring ingredients is crucial, so it's recommended to use a scale for precision. ⚖️
2️⃣ Binders like xanthan gum and psyllium husk play a significant role. Understanding the characteristics of each binder, when to use them, and in which recipes is essential. 🌾
3️⃣ The choice of flour can vary as different companies produce different types of flour, even if they are of the same kind. 🏭
4️⃣ Liquid and fatty ingredients have a crucial impact on the dough. Insufficient water can result in a dry and tough dough, while an excessive amount of fat can lead to crumbly bread. 💦
5️⃣ The dough's density and texture, as depicted in the picture, should resemble that of cookie dough. 🍪
6️⃣ The method of baking gluten-free goods in the oven differs from that of wheat-based goods. 🔥
