In my kitchen, I treat gluten and gluten-free the same. I have quite a few gluten-free recipes on this site but it’s not because I specifically made them to be gluten-free. I made them because I liked the flavor those particular elements brought to the dish. I’m not celiac or gluten-intolerant but I still enjoy these dishes. While these grains (and seeds) get the label of “gluten-free” I think it’s important to remember that they too have a place in everyone’s kitchens. Each one is unique and can add a lot to whatever the dish may be.

You may have noticed by now that I also have a certain love of crepes. While I typically enjoy the sweet variety, I do eat my fair share of savory (like this grilled cheese and asparagus crepe). I enjoy the lightness the wrap brings and how well it can lend itself to both savory and sweet. There’s a nice almond crepe in the book but I felt like sharing this easy oat crepe. If you saw yesterday’s post on grinding equipment, you may notice that you can make oat flour from rolled oats in a food processor + a little sifting. If I’m not careful, I’ll just lather these oat crepes with a bit of butter/honey and eat them just like that.

Also, if you want more sneak peaks at the book, some of my friends have shared a smattering of gluten-free recipes from the cookbook:
