WELCOME TO DIABETIC ENJOYING FOOD

I have chosen this name for this blog because it truly states my story. I am a type II diabetic who most certainly enjoys food. When I was diagnosed with diabetes several years ago, my blood sugar level was over 400. With some oral medications, a lot of research and some trial and error, I have found that unlike my ancestors I truly can continue to enjoy food. I hope this blog will help you to also enjoy food and be healthy. Some recipes are my originals and some I have collected. Everyone reacts different to various foods. Check your blood sugar readings so you will know whether or not a recipe works for you! And feel free to take a recipe and adjust it to suit your needs.

HOW TO MAKE GLUTEN-FREE ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR


4 cups finely ground or stone-ground white-rice flour

2 cups stone-ground brown-rice flour

2 cups tapioca flour or tapioca starch

1 cup potato starch (not potato flour)

In an extra-large bowl, combine all ingredients; whisk together until thoroughly blended.

Using a large spoon bring the flour from the bottom up to the top and whisk again to be sure mixture is thoroughly. Repeat the process a few times to be sure the ingredients are evenly distributed through the mixture.

Store your flour mixture in an airtight container or a zip-top storage (I prefer freezer) bag. Flour may be store this way for up to one month. If you need to store for a longer period of time, place in the refrigerator or freezer. Bring to room temperature before using.

Stir flour mixture lightly before using. Spoon lightly into measuring cup and use the straight back of a knife or other straight utensil to level off.

Yield: Approximately 9 cups
