Benefits to Eating Gluten Free Dairy Free Foods

Many people are discovering that cutting out gluten and dairy can have profound benefits for their health.  For starters, both of these foods are very constipating, so removing them can help relieve bloating and constipation.

In addition, gluten and casein can escape the intestines of people with leaky guts.  When they reach the brain, they can activate the same receptors as morphine and heroin, making your child who’s just eaten macaroni and cheese seem as if they are on drugs, acting very spacey and unfocused.  Thus, removing gluten and dairy foods can improve your child’s attention.

Wild Mushroom Soup

WILD MUSHROOM SOUP “Yum!” is what I wrote in my notes when I made this wild mushroom soup the first time.

This is one of my favorite recipes from Peter Berley, one of my favorite guest chef instructors at the Natural Gourmet Institute in New York, NY.

Serves:  6

Prep time:  10 minutes

Cook time:  1 hour, 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1oz dried porcini mushrooms
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1-1/2lb mixed mushrooms (trimmed and thinly sliced)
  • 1 medium onion (thinly sliced)
  • 3 cloves garlic (peeled and left whole)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 teaspoon fresh sage (finely chopped)
  • 3 cups roasted mushroom stock (see recipe)
  • 1/2 cup SCD yogurt or coconut milk (for a dairy-free version, use coconut milk)
  • 1 tablespoon dry red wine (or to taste)
  • sea salt (to taste)
  • freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley or chives (minced)

Directions

Cover the porcinis with 1 cup hot, filtered water for 30 minutes. Massage the softened mushrooms to dislodge any grit and transfer them to another bowl. Strain the liquid and pour back over the porcinis; set aside. Discard the grit at the bottom.

Heat the oil in a wide saute’ pan over medium heat. Add the onions, mixed mushrooms, garlic and herbs, saute’ for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden brown. Add 1 cup of stock and scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Transfer the mushroom mixture to a 3-quart pot.

Add the porcinis, soaking liquid and remaining 2 cups stock. Simmer for 20-30 minutes. Puree the soup with SCD yogurt or coconut milk and stir in the wine. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with chives or chopped parsley.

Lacto-Fermented Mayonnaise

LACTO-FERMENTED MAYONNAISEThanks to Cheeseslave for this awesomely delicious homemade lacto-fermented mayonnaise recipe that is GAPS and SCD legal!

Serves:  2 to 2-1/2 cups

Cook time:  15 minutes

Source: Cheeseslave

Ingredients

  • 3 large pasture-raised egg yolks (room temperature)
  • 1-1/2 – 2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3-5 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon mustard
  • 2-3 tablespoons fresh whey (leftover from making homemade yogurt or kefir)

Directions

Mix the egg yolks for 1-2 minutes. If using cold (not room temperature), mix a few minutes more. This is the key to mayonnaise that will set. If you use cold egg yolks, the mayo will not set unless they are warmed up in the blender (or whisked long enough in a warmed bowl).

Add the lemon juice (or vinegar), sea salt, and mustard. Mix for 30 seconds more.

With the blender running, add the olive oil drop by drop. When I say drop by drop, I mean drop by drop. Or at least a very thin, slow stream. This is the other very important element for making a mayo that will emulsify. If you go too fast, you’ll end up with runny mayonnaise.

Once you’ve added about 1/2 a cup of olive oil, the sauce should have thickened into a heavy cream, and now you can add the oil in a thicker stream. Not too fast, though (especially if you are a beginner). If the mayo becomes too thick, add a few more drops of lemon juice or vinegar.

Blend in the whey. Spoon into a mason jar, cover with a lid, and leave it on the counter or in a cupboard (at room temperature) for several hours. Then transfer to the fridge.

Serves:  1

Prep time:  5 minutes

Source:  Culinary Farmacy

Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond milk, coconut milk or hemp milk

Coconut-Flour Chia Crackers

COCONUT-FLOUR CHIA CRACKERS Yes!  These coconut-flour chia crackers from For the Love of Food are egg-free as well as being Paleo-, GAPS and SCD-legal.  Enjoy!

Serves:  8

Prep time:  10 minutes

Cook times:  20 minutes

Source:  For the Love of Food

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 1/4 cup ground chia seeds
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil
  • 3/4 cups boiled, filtered water
  • 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh rosemary (minced)

Directions

Preheat oven to 375F.

Using a whisk or fork, mix the dry ingredients in a bowl until well incorporated. Add the coconut oil into the bowl. Add the hot water a little at a time, stirring as you add it in. (This will melt the coconut oil.)

Mix well with a spoon, stirring and mashing out any lumps that might still exist. Once you have a uniform dough in a ball, place it on your silpat or unbleached parchment-paper lined tray and roll out. Keep rolling your dough until it is as thin as you can get it without seeing through or tearing it. Feel free to move pieces of dough around and press it in- the dough is forgiving and easy to “cut and paste.” Slice into squares with a pizza cutter.

Bake for approximately 20 minutes, depending on your oven.
