When I made my final test batch of bread sticks, there were plenty of people over at my apartment, including an old friend who’d been out of the country for most of the past few years and so had mostly been out of touch. He was obeying our “no gluten in the apartment” rule, of course, but hadn’t stopped to think through how that meant every bit of food in sight was gluten-free. So when I handed him his share of the freshly buttered breadsticks, then came back five minutes later to ask how they were, he said, “Yeah, they’re good.” I asked him, “So they don’t taste fake? or weird? or anything like that? You wouldn’t think they were gluten-free?” He blinked at me several times, then asked as it sank in, “Wait, these are gluten-free? Really?”
That’s always how I know a recipe is done. 🙂 |
