They're chock full of antioxidants. They help fight everything from heart disease to ulcers. They might just be the healthiest jellied stuff that's shaped like a can.
Thanksgiving is a food-centric, hedonistic, gustatory orgy. We gather and we eat for upwards of four hours, all the way from pre-dinner snacks to post-dessert dessert. But a traditional Thanksgiving dinner is literally one of the most allergen-laden meals possible. Whether this is your first allergen-free Thanksgiving or your twentieth, the following tips will help make it festive, mouthwateringly delicious, and safe.
Allergen-free Skillet Cornbread
Cooking cornbread in a hot cast iron skillet gives it that coveted crust on the outside. This cornbread tastes just like my Southern grandmothers', but it's vegan, allergen-free, and gluten-free! Make it for the holidays, or any old time!
2/3 cup white rice flour (I use Bob's Red Mill)
1/3 cup tapioca flour (I use Ener-G)
3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 tsp. kosher salt
2 tsp. aluminum-free baking powder
3/4 tsp. baking soda
1 3/4 cups oat milk * or rice milk
Homemade ice cream is a piece of cake to make if you’ve got the right machine. We lucked out a few years back and found a secondhand Italian gelato machine with a built-in compressor; you don’t have to keep it in the freezer, and it makes perfect ice cream every time. Best $60 we ever spent (they cost about $400 new, unfortunately; it will be a tragic day if I ever burn out the motor with my incessant ice-cream making.)
