There are many different formulas for gluten-free mix and not one of them is “all-purpose.” Some people have different allergies in addition to gluten (like corn and potato) and other people (like me) have difficulty finding special flours that aren’t sold wherever they live. I picked up this copy of Gluten-Free Gourmet Cooks Comfort Foods when I was in the U.S. last October. The book includes a variety of GF mixes and recipes that use these mixes. I’ll be posting a few of my favorite recipes later.
