Re: Question about food and baking       09/04/04 07:57 AM Edit Reply Quote atomic rose Reged: 06/01/04 Posts: 7013 Loc: Maine (IBS-A stable since July '05!) I've had the same problem with IBS-safe baking. My theory was always that the chewiness comes from the high sugar content - even in commercial low-fat baking, they tend to go a little higher with the sugar, to compensate for the flavor you lose when you cut the fat. That's just my theory, though. And not that this really helps at all, except to say that I don't think it's due to anything *you're* doing - I've had the same problems, and I'm a pretty damn good baker. As for the density... yeah, that seems to be pretty much unavoidable too. I was able to experiment a little and come up with a very basic, plain muffin recipe that came out pretty light - it relied on the reaction between orange juice and a LOT of baking powder to give it some "poof". I'm still working on that recipe, though - I'd like to modify it to make a decent cake and some lighter quick breads - I'll be sure to post when I'm feeling better and have time to figure that out. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful... but at least you know there's another good cook having the same problems. Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
