Soy & Linseed Bread
Tasty gluten free bread.
Ingredients
2 cups brown rice flour
1 cup tapioca flour
3 tablespoons sugar
3 ½ tablespoons xanthan gum
2/3 cup skim milk powder
¼ cup linseeds
¼ cup soy grits
1 teaspoon salt
1 ½ tablespoons dried yeast
¼ cup canola oil
1 ¾ cup warm water
1 teaspoon white vinegar
3 eggs
Mix all dry ingredients in a large bowl. Mix oil, water and vinegar in
separate bowl and then add to dry ingredients. Mix well.
Add eggs, and then mix well again. Cover mixture with plastic wrap,
then leave to rise in warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Stir mixture well, and then spoon into medium sized loaf pan and let
rise for 30 minutes to 1 hour (covered loosely with plastic wrap). Bake in a
moderate oven, 180°C, for approximately 1 hour or until golden brown. Turn

Flax Seed Wheat Bread
200g bread flour
50g whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon salt
100g flax seeds
2 teaspoons malt powder
150 grams water
1 teaspoon instant yeast
Makes 1 one pound loaf. Combine the flours, salt, seeds, malt, and yeast in
a bowl. Stir in the water and mix until thoroughly combined. This dough is
14
not a terribly moist one: it should be slightly tacky but not sticky. When
shaped into a ball it should easily hold its shape.
The seed and bran from the whole wheat prevent a high level of gluten
development in this dough, so extensive kneading is not necessary.
Once all of the ingredients are thoroughly combined, place the ball of
dough in a greased bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and leave to rise for an
hour to an hour and a half.
Shape the dough into 1 large or two small loaves, cover the loaves with
plastic, and give them another hour to rise. In the meantime, preheat the
oven and baking stone to 425 degrees.
Brush the top of the loaves with water, score the loaves, and place them in
the oven. Bake them at 425 for 20 minutes, rotate them 180 degrees, then
bake them another 20 to 25 minutes. When done, they will be nicely
browned on the outside, make a hollow sound when tapped upon, and
register approximately 205 degrees in the center when measured with an
instant read thermometer.

2 (14.5 oz.) cans chicken or beef broth
1 1/2 cup chopped tomato

until slightly soft, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add soy flour and stir constantly as
flour starts to brown, about 2 minutes. Add cans of broth. Raise heat to high
and stir to loosen any brown bits from flour. Add green pepper. Cover pot

Unbeef Stew
1 pound extra firm regular tofu
1 large onion chopped
1 quart vegetable broth
5 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon tamari
2 cloves garlic finely chopped
4 of each large carrots and large peeled potatoes coarsely chopped
1 tomato seeded and diced
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon each of pepper and basil
3 tablespoons soybean margarine
5 tablespoons cornstarch mixed with water until not lumpy
Directions:
Freeze the tofu and then let it thaw completely. Drain the water from the
tofu, and cut into slices and squeeze more water out. Then cut the slices
into chunks and bake at 200 degrees on an ungreased cookie sheet while
chopping the rest of the ingredients (check the tofu about every 10‐15
minutes so that it doesn't get browned ‐ it should just be dried out, not
burned). The tofu should be well dried out, like croutons. Place all of the
prepared ingredients into a Crockpot, stir well, and cook on high for at least
6‐8 hours, stirring occasionally. The stew is ready when it is thick and brown.
It makes a lot!
Yield: 8 servings.
