Bread

I found a loaf of your \"gluten free GOURMET bread\'\' at my local Zehr\'s store about a month and half ago. I have searched but never found it since. It was the closest loaf to regular I have tasted. do you still make it, or does my supplier not stock it?

Follow-up

This is a follow-up to the question about the possibility of being allergic to wheat and having celiac disease. I was diagnosed with celiac disease more than three years ago. I recently had a RAST test for food allergies and the results were negative on all grains, yet I still cannot eat them. I am guessing it\'s the gluten I am allergic to and not the grain. Is my assumption correct or have I been misdiagnosed? If so, do you have any ideas that will be helpful?

how to use frozen pie dough

I've just bought some El peto frozen pie dough but no directions are written on it. Once it is thawed, does it need to be cooked (at what temperature?) before I put in the pie filling?
Or, do I just put the filling on top of the raw dough?
Thanks.

Preheat the oven at 400 F. The pie dough needs to be defrosted at room temperature for a couple of hours then rolled out with some rice flour that you put on the counter and on the rolling pin. It can be worked quite easily. Roll it into the desired shape then fold in into quarters and lift it into the pie plate or baking form. (do not use a glas plate as this does not browns the dough very well). Add the desired pie filling and put on the top. Add some eggwash to give it a nice golden colour. Bake raw pie dough and pie filling at 350 F for approx 35 - 40 minutes or till golden brown on top and bottom. Should the top brown too much and the bottom is not cooked yet, cover the top with aluminum foil and keep cooking till bottom is cooked. Lenght of cooking time may differ from stove to stove.

Gluten and dairy-free filo dough?

Does such a product exist? Do you make it? If it does exist, where in Canada could I buy such a thing?

Am I able to purchase your products personally. I am not a store chain. If so I can't seem to find your product prices.
Thank you, Ali

Phosphorous

Because of renal failure, I have to avoid products that contain phosphorous. Do you have any products are have little or no phosphorous?
