Description:
Much of my passion for food comes from working with an amazing caterer when I was thirteen. The cornerstone of many recipes is a good white sauce; but how do you make one without using wheat? It took a while to get the proportions right, I hope you enjoy it!
Ingredients:
3 tbsp butter
4 tbsp oat flour
1¼ cup rice milk
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
¼ tsp sea salt
1 clove garlic
Dash basil
Pepper to taste
Directions:
Melt the butter in a saucepan over med-low heat.
Drop in the oat flour, and sauté for a minute stirring constantly. Pour the milk in gradually while stirring. Increase heat to medium until the mixture starts to bubble, then turn down to low and let simmer.
Add all other ingredients, stirring often. Simmer until the sauce thickens properly, about 8-10 minutes.
Notes: You can serve this alfredo sauce over Wheat-Free and Gluten-Free Pasta

Strive for about a 1/2 inch of space between the end of the foot and the tip of the shoe. Wear the type of socks or stockings that will be worn with the shoes. And finally, consider having both feet measured. Feet can vary in size. |
