Happy 4th of July everyone! In honor of the holiday, I thought I'd share the recipes I used in the scrumptious BBQ shown above. It really was to die for, if I do say so myself. :)
For the hamburger buns, I used Jules Shepard's breadstick recipe, which I unfortunately can't find online anywhere (sorry...so not helpful). But it can be found in her book, "The First Year: Celiac Disease and Living Gluten-free." I highly recommend it. I've used this recipe previously for hot dog buns and really enjoyed it, but I have to say I think it makes even better hamburger buns. It held together, wasn't too bready...I could've been eating a burger at a gourmet restaurant.
As for the fries, that's a recipe I can share! :) I don't usually like homemade, steak-style fries. They're too soft for me. But these...no no no. Nice and crispy. I think you'll like them! :)
Gluten-free French Fries Recipe:
Slice up some potatoes, skins and all.
Put them in a plastic bag, and add enough olive oil to just coat all the potato pieces. Shake the bag around until all the pieces are coated.
Add seasoning to your liking. I added chili powder, paprika, lots of season salt and a little garlic powder, and they were DELICIOUS! (You can adjust the amount to your liking...I smothered on the season salt and chili powder, and went a little lighter on the other two.) Shake the bag around until the seasoning is evenly distributed.
Spread the fries on a cookie sheet, and cook at 375 degrees for 30-35 minutes, giving them a little stir/flip every 8 minutes or so.
Yum yum yum. Hope you enjoy!
