Accessibility isn't just ramps and captions. Inclusion is imperfect, but organizations need to listen when disabled people tell them their needs. Especially when it's a fairly simple one like this, they should find ways to accommodate (or at least not make us pay for something we can't eat!).

Advocating for yourself and others like you when you have celiac disease feels incredibly difficult sometimes. I can often end up feeling like I'm being a problem when I speak up for what is actually an accessibility issue for people with this disability.

Update on this: self-advocacy is hard, but it's worth it! Edmonton Opera just emailed me to let me know that there will now be gluten-free boxes available for people who need them (celiac/allergy). It's good to see an arts organization being responsive to concerns like this.

Go, Doughfus, go!

Fed and watered Doughfus this morning 7AM. By noon, it grew above the black ring as pictured.

Remember, gluten free sourdough is not going to double in size when making dough. But when done correctly, it will still rise.

Gluten-Free Ginataang Gulay (Vegetables in Coconut Milk)
Celiac.com 06/07/2025 - In the heart of the Philippines, Ginataang Gulay has long been a beloved comfort food, blending the richness of coconut milk with the earthy freshness of local vegetables. "Ginataan" comes from the Filipino word "gata," meaning coconut milk, and refers to any dish cooked in this creamy, aromatic liquid. Ginataang Gulay, specifically, highlights how Filipino cuisine celebrates plant-based ingredients without compromising flavor. Traditionally served during family gatherings or humble everyday meals, this dish reflects the tropical abundance of the islands and the ingenuity of a cuisine that makes simple ingredients truly shine. Today, it's an easy favorite for gluten-free eaters worldwide, as its base ingredients are naturally gluten-free — just be mindful that any added sauces or thickeners are checked for hidden gluten. Our version of Ginataang Gulay stays true to its rustic roots but introduces a colorful mix of vegetables that are easily available in most markets. It's a vibrant, hearty, and nourishing dish that not only fills your stomach but also connects you to centuries of culinary tradition. Best of all, it comes together with minimal effort, making it perfect for weeknights or lazy weekend dinners. Ginataang Gulay Recipe Ingredients: * 2 tablespoons coconut oil (or any neutral oil) * 4 cloves garlic, minced * 1 small onion, sliced thinly * 1 thumb-sized piece of ginger, peeled and julienned * 1 cup squash (like kabocha or butternut), peeled and cubed * 1 cup eggplant, cut into bite-sized pieces * 1 cup string beans, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces * 1 cup bok choy or pechay, chopped * 1 cup coconut milk (full fat) * ½ cup coconut cream (for extra richness) * 1 tablespoon gluten-free tamari or coconut aminos * 1 teaspoon fish sauce (optional; check it's gluten-free) or salt to taste * ½ teaspoon ground black pepper * 1–2 red chilies, sliced (optional for heat) * ½ cup water (as needed to adjust consistency) * Cooked rice, for serving Instructions: Sauté Aromatics In a large pan or wok over medium heat, warm the coconut oil. Add the garlic, onion, and ginger, and sauté until the onion becomes translucent and the mixture is aromatic, about 2–3 minutes. Add Harder Vegetables First Toss in the cubed squash and eggplant. Stir well to coat with the aromatics. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Pour in Coconut Milk Add the coconut milk and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Stir in the tamari (or coconut aminos) and fish sauce if using. Let the vegetables cook in the coconut milk for another 8–10 minutes, or until the squash is tender. Add Remaining Vegetables Stir in the string beans and bok choy. If the sauce looks too thick, add a little water to loosen it up. Simmer for another 3–5 minutes, until the greens are vibrant and just cooked through. Finish with Coconut Cream Pour in the coconut cream and season with black pepper. Add chilies if you like some spice. Give everything a final stir and cook for another minute, just to heat through. Serve and Enjoy Remove from heat and serve hot over steamed rice. Spoon plenty of the creamy coconut sauce over the top. Final Thoughts: Ginataang Gulay is more than just a vegetable stew; it's a creamy, comforting hug in a bowl that speaks to the heart of Filipino home cooking. This gluten-free version remains true to tradition while being accessible to modern kitchens anywhere in the world. Whether you're new to Filipino flavors or grew up with a pot of ginataan always bubbling away at home, this dish is sure to nourish your body and soul. Serve it simply with rice, or pair it with grilled seafood or meat for a fuller meal — either way, it’s an easy, wholesome way to celebrate the beauty of plant-based, gluten-free eating.

Ok recipe. This is my go to scone recipe. I swapped out the flour for Bob's Red Mill one to one gluten free and added a cup of frozen cranberries. The glaze is just 2 tablespoons orange juice and icing sugar. Easy peasy 😂

One of my favourite gluten-free bakeries in Montréal has a Toronto location now! This is amazing/dangerous news. Croissants to die for — as good as any I've had at the best GF bakeries in France.
