GRAVY

Sunday, September 24th, 2006

So …… where can i find a good recipe for GRAVY?
I KINDA like the kind you get at a diner, but I’m at apoint now where
seeing gravy turn into a JELLY (GEL - LY?) DROOPY form is kinda
unappetizing(from the starch or the flour they add, rigtht?).
Someone mentioned pureeing the stalky part of broccoli to act as a
thickening agent. Well, that’s nice, but ol ham bone don’t own any
cooking tools outside of his usual mess to make puree this or that.
So far, heavy cream has worked, but if there’s some other ways to
thicken up the sauce tell me.

Jane Warner ~ rice bread recipe with arrowroot

Saturday, September 23rd, 2006

Here is the only rice bread recipe I have that doesn’t have other grains in it.
Let me know how it turns out. I’ve never tried it. You might try going to
www.alltheweb.com and enter rice bread, crackers, etc.and also enter celiac
bread recipes since they are so restricted with what breads they can eat. That
will probably give you the best recipes.

saute.

Grain Trouble?

Friday, September 22nd, 2006

I am beginning to suspect that I may have trouble with some and/or
all of the BTD O secretor neutral grains. I would be interested in
other’s comments that have come to the same conclusion. Are there
particular grains that seem to be more problematic then others? What
symptoms do you experience? Does the problem go away after a period
of time? Etc?
Let me give some background. I am an O- secretor. In the past I
suffered from long-term chronic sinusitis and went through a variety
of treatments over the years. I started the BTD a year ago and was
very hopeful that the diet would help solve my sinus problem, which
is my biggest problem. My sinuses have improved some, but they are
still not normal. I still frequently have congestion trouble and
thick mucus.
Heidi has said several times in her column that consumption of any
amount of grains can cause some Os sinus trouble. The past few months

? about Blood Type Encyclopedia

Friday, September 22nd, 2006

Recently purchased the encyclopedia. Noticed that each condition has
several protocols to follow. Are we supposed to do them
simultaneously or consecutively? Thought I read or heard somewhere
that when taking any new supplements to start one new supplement at a
time in case there was some adverse reaction. Can’t find any info in
the book that sheds light on this.
Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.

ER baking tips from Heidi

Thursday, September 21st, 2006

This is from Heidi’s column for July 28, Rye Bread, Butter, and Pork
ABO-Aware Baker’s Note: For the “3 to 3 1/2 cups of bread flour,” type O
nonsecretors should substitute kamut or quinoa — and use 1/2 instead of 1/4
teaspoon baking soda - and add 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed soaked for 1/2
hour in just enough water to cover. It will form a gel-like mass. Instead of the
cornmeal, you might use crushed millet or coarse-ground quinoa. For everyone
else, just use white (rather than whole-grain) spelt instead of the “bread
flour” and the millet or quinoa instead of the corn — all except you Bs, who
should stay away from rye bread altogether! Don’t feel left out: Joan’s page
contains lots of non-rye recipes! :-

1 cup sourdough starter, room temperature, bubbly [try her rye starter]

Is there a list of resources anywhere?

Thursday, September 21st, 2006

Thanks to Kili and Merrill for answering one of my questions a
while back: where to buy organic green tea. I got it from
svtea.com. Excellent stuff.
Also from Heidi Merrit’s webpage I’ve gotten the sites for:
maca root powder: pennherb.com
Veg gly: harvesthealth.com
I’m still searching for best places to get certain items, and I can’t
help but wonder if one of you veterans out there might have gone
through all this searching and found great places to get such
recommended things as:
Jarrow egg protein
Kal nutritional yeast
game meats/poultry
hearts/sweetbreads/etc.
grass fed butter
