Cauliflower Flour Is the Latest in Alternative Low-Carb Baking — Food News

Cauliflower flour is here to make all your low-carb, gluten-free baked goods an (easier) reality. It’s a fantastic development that will be great for Paleo and keto dieters, people who don’t eat gluten, and anybody who wants to cut down on carbs in their baking.

It is, however, driving me absolutely bonkers today, because every time I say the words “cauliflower flour” to anybody, the conversation devolves into a “Who’s on first?”-style comedy routine.

Ina Garten’s Advice for Getting Thrifty, Quality Kitchenware — Pop Culture

If I could be anybody at 70 years old, I would want to be Ina Garten. Actually, scratch that, I’d want to be her at any age. I want her Hamptons house and her $15,000 French stove, and I want to smile all the time and look 25 years younger than I am — just like she does. The last part I’m still optimistic for, but the Hamptons house and the shiny oven are things I might just have to be content with by watching Ina on TV. Ina Garten has beautiful things, but a person doesn’t need Ina Garten-level cookware to make food like she does. A few quality pieces will do it for most of us.

I own and regularly use a cookie dough freezer tray.

This past January Kitchn did a deep dive into the ketogenic diet. The high-fat diet puts people in a state of ketosis where their bodies burn fat instead of carbs. You essentially eat a lot more fat — like cheese, bacon, and butter — and limit your carb intake (here’s a list of what you can and can’t eat exactly). While the lifestyle definitely isn’t for everyone, it is gaining in popularity — especially on Pinterest.

According to Pinteret’s Holi-YAY 2017 report, searches for holiday keto-friendly recipes were up 4460% year over year.
