Meet your instructor, Culinary Institute of America professor Richard Coppedge Jr., and learn more about the properties of gluten and how it affects the baked goods that you'll be replicating in gluten-free form. Throughout the lessons, Richard will also note where you should be using dedicated equipment to avoid any cross-contamination.
The key to successful gluten-free baking is in the custom flour mixes you'll make with Richard's guidance. His "strong" blend will give your baked goods more structure, while the softer blend will create a lighter crumb and tender dough. In the following lessons you'll use these blends alone and in combination to get the results you desire. Richard also discusses how to modify commercial gluten-free flour blends to suit your needs.
An easy place to start your gluten-free adventure is with crowd-pleasing pancakes. Richard shows how to mix up the batter, prepare your griddle and cook your pancakes to perfection. You'll also see with Richard's syrup test how commercial gluten-free batters measure up against pancakes made from scratch.
Yes, you can make gluten-free cookies that will delight even cookie connoisseurs. Because your cookies contain no gluten, you'll never have to worry about overmixing and making them tough. Richard starts with a jam-filled spritz cookie, prepares a bite-sized Mexican wedding cookie and shares a recipe for addictive shortbread crescents.
Blueberry muffins, biscuits and Irish soda bread can be fluffy and delicate when made without gluten. Richard explains how to combine flour blends to get just the right amount of structure and airy crumb, how to portion out your batter and how to check for doneness.
Don't dread the thought of making gluten-free pie crust! Gain from Richard's years of research and learn how to mix, roll out and shape the perfect pie shell. Blind bake the shell for a delectable chocolate cream pie, or fill it with fruit and top it with a layer of crust or crumbles for a dessert you'll love.
A tasty and light yeast-raised bread is the holy grail of gluten-free baking, and now it's within your reach! Learn Richard's secrets for working with yeast and starting a preferment to get a lofty dough. Then, see how to mix, proof and shape your dough for baking. Create breadsticks, dinner rolls and sandwich bread you'll be proud to serve and love to eat!
