Question about subs in recipe

I want to try this recipe but I'm worried about subbing the eggs since it calls

for three. Would flax goo work ok here or would something else be better?

 

What about a sub for potato starch? I did some reading and read that potato

starch = potato flour (in which case I'd probably use sweet potato flour) but

this recipe says NOT flour. Would I be able to use tapioca starch or arrowroot?

 

Thanks

Rosemary-Thyme Dinner Roll Recipe

Bread Alternative Grains American

 

Ingredients

3 eggs - use Extra Large!

1/4 cup oil

1/4 cup sugar

1 1/4 cups milk

1 tsp. salt

1 TBSP xanthan gum

1/3 cup potato starch (NOT flour)

1 cup white rice flour

1 cup brown rice flour

1 cup tapioca starch

1/3 c. GF teff or buckwheat flour (M's modification)

1 TBSP active dry yeast

1 tsp. apple cider vinegar

 

For rosemary thyme variation, mix chopped fresh thyme and rosemary, and dried

onion flakes with a dash of olive oil and reserve.

 

If desired, minced sundried tomatoes, to taste

 

Garnish: More fresh, chopped rosemary (or dried), fresh thyme, chopped, black or

kosher/gourmet salt (large crystals are key), dried onion flakes, and anything

else you feel like.

 

Directions

Preheat Oven to 380 degrees.* Note: I actually started these at a higher

temperature, more like 450, and then turned the temperature down, in the attempt

to get a crunchier crust. Try experimenting with the temperature and see what

you like. I'll be trying different things the next time I make this recipe. :)

 

Beat eggs in heavy duty mixer and then add oil, vinegar, and sugar, combining.

Add dry ingredients. Warm milk in the microwave (or on the stove) and add to the

bowl, gently folding it into the flour. Add your rosemary thyme mix. Turn on

motor, let ingredients combine thoroughly then turn power to medium and leave

for 4 minutes while it stirs. If you want sun dried tomatoes, add for the last

minute or so of mixing.

 

Spray baking pan (cookie sheet type) with nonstick cooking spray and/or line

with parchment paper.

 

Flour your hands with gluten free rice flour and grab a ball of dough from the

mixing bowl. Gently shape it into a roll. Place it on the prepared cookie sheet.

Make another roll, continuing until all dough has been used for rolls. (This

part is fun!)

 

Brush with whisked egg. Sprinkle with garnish (fresh herbs, salt, onion), poppy

seeds or sesame seeds if desired.

 

Let it rise in a warm place until doubled.(*edited)

 

Five minutes before you put the rolls in the oven, put ice cubes (in a pan) in

the bottom rack of your oven and let them evaporate into steam. Open oven, put

in your rack of rolls and let bake for 20-25 minutes. (Halfway through baking

time, you may wish to turn over your rolls for even browning.)

 

Alternatively, place a pan w/ 1/4 to 1/2 inch of boiling water on the lowest

rack in the oven 5 minutes before you put the bread in and leave in there until

bread is done.

 

These two baking methods should result in a crunchier outer crust.

As a general rule, I avoid recipes that call for 3 eggs. Most eggs subs

just don't work well after you go past two subs.

 

Potato Starch does NOT equal potato flour. The starch is just the starchy

part of the potato and the flour is whole potato -- think the difference

between corn starch and corn meal. Tapioca starch, arrowroot, or corn

starch would be fine subs.

 

BTW... I just took basic class on different kinds of gluten free flours at

my local whole foods. Don't know if all or many whole foods are starting to

offer such a thing, but I found it really useful in understanding how

substitutions might or might not work.

When a recipe calls for 3 eggs, I use a mixture of egg subs. 2 eggs flax, 1

egg applesauce, or 2 eggs egg replacer, 1 egg baby squash. In baked goods I

like to use 1 egg as applesauce or baby squash because the final product is

moister and seems to stay fresher longer. If you do 3 eggs though then it

gets too moist and doesn't bake through. You may be able to cut it down to 2

eggs and use one and one of your choice of subs or 2 flax eggs. Flax gel

would probably best if your using flax.

 

Potato starch and potato flour are different. Perhaps where you saw them as

equal was in reference to an allergy. The flour is much more dense and the

starch gives a lighter fluffier texture to baked goods. Any starch can be

subed for potato starch. Corn starch, arrowroot starch, as long as it's a

starch it will give you the texture you want.

 

Good luck.

I'm with Margaret---I usually avoid recipes that call for 3 or more eggs,

because I struggle with the subs. That's not to say it can't be done, but

do it with an experimental mindset instead of a normal baking ( " this will

come out great! can't wait! " ) mindset so that you don't end up utterly

frustrated.

 

You can certainly learn by doing. :D

Oh, and occasionally starches and flours mean the same thing---e.g., tapioca

starch and flour are the same thing. But in the US, Margaret's right that

potato starch and potato flour aren't the same thing. I would certainly try

subbing in tapioca starch or corn starch to see if it works out in a recipe

that calls for potato starch.

That's what I figured but I've been gluten free for a couple months now and I am

really struggling with not having any bread, rolls, or anything. We used to eat

rosemary wheat rolls often and these just sounded soooo good. We are so limited

in what we can eat that most bread/roll recipes have too many subs for us. I

saw this and thought it might be feasible :)

 

Thanks

Amy

I did a search on potato starch substitutes and the first link I found said they

found this on foodsubs.com. It's all so confusing!

 

potato starch = potato flour = potato starch flour = katakuriko Notes: This

gluten-free starch is used to thicken soups and gravies. Its main advantage over

other starch thickeners is that it's a permitted ingredient for Passover, unlike

cornstarch and other grain-based foods. Liquids thickened with potato starch

should never be boiled. Supermarkets often stock it among the Kosher products.

Substitutes: cornstarch (This is very similar, but not permitted for Passover.)

OR arrowroot OR tapioca starch OR ground Passover matzo (This is also permitted

for Passover.)

When a recipe calls for three eggs, I use 1/2 cup of vegetable puree plus 2

tsp extra baking powder PLUS add flax seeds and chia seeds to the recipe and

this seems to work fine. I haven't tried this particular recipe of course,

but using the replacement for 2 eggs plus adding the flax and chia seems to

work for most yeast raised breads.

 

I usually use squash baby food (stage one organic) but have also used

carrots or sweet potato. In the non-babyfood line I have also tried mashed

white potato, mashed sweet potato, butternut squash, turnip, pumpkin and

tomato. Anything that has the ability to bind works just fine plus adds

extra nutrition. My least favourite was the turnip and the carrot. Turnip

was too noticeable and carrot adds too much colour.

Approximately how much flax and chia seed (I'll have to find this, never had

chia seed)?

 

Thanks

Hi Amy

 

About 1/4 cup each of the flax and chia seed. Chia is the seed used

in those silly Chia Pets. It's actually Salvia Hispanica and many

health food stores carry it now, as well as some main stream groceries

like Wholefoods (I am told, I am not in the US). Chia is high in

EFAs, like flax so it also adds good nutrition and taste very nice.

I have actually never heard of it or tried it. I can't believe I didn't connect

it with Chia pets haha. Thanks for letting me know about it. I'll have to

check my local grocery store, no Whole Foods around here :(
