#GF NEW World Cuisine with a Vegetarian Twist
The bad thing about living in a small town -- I can't get these here. But I can't wait to try them on my next trip to Atlanta.
I will report back with a full review!
**************************************
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
World Cuisine with a Vegetarian Twist
Saffron Road To Unveil Four New All Natural, Halal Certified Vegetarian Items at Whole Foods Market®
Stamford, CT –
Manchurian Dumplings with Basmati Rice
Thai Basil Chili Tofu with Basmati Rice – Thai basil is no ordinary basil – it has subtle undertones of anise or licorice, and it’s a perfect complement to zest up our protein-rich firm organic tofu. Thai cuisine is based on balance, and each spice works in harmony with this medley of fresh crunchy vegetables to make an extraordinary entrée. Gluten free, authentic recipe, all natural, and vegetarian.

Cook: 1 hr 45 min
Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

· Salt and freshly ground black pepper
· 1 tablespoon butter
· 1 tablespoon olive oil
· 5 ounces bacon, sliced into 1/4-inch pieces
· 1 large onion, halved and sliced
· 1 large carrot, peeled and roughly chopped into bite size pieces
· 2 ribs celery, roughly chopped into bite size pieces
· 12 pearl onions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
· Place a large pot or a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper. When the pot is hot, add the butter and olive oil. Place the chicken pieces into the pot, skin side down so that they fit snugly yet have room to color. Turn them after 2 minutes then cook for a further 2 minutes on the bottom. Remove the chicken to a plate. Add the bacon and cook until golden. Reduce the heat to medium, add the sliced onion, carrot and celery and cook for 2 minutes.
· Blanch pearl onions in a 6 to 8-quart pot of boiling water 1 minute, then drain in a colander. When onions are cool enough to handle, peel. Set aside.
· Next deglaze the bottom of the pot with 2 tablespoons of brandy. Stir all the ingredients well, lifting the browned bits off the bottom of the pot. While stirring, add the flour and cook for 1 minute. (This will create a roux and hold in all the flavors that have been created.)
· Place the sprigs of thyme the pearl onions and the mushrooms into the pot and give them a stir, then return the chicken to the pot. Add the chicken stock and simmer for 5 minutes.
· Add the red wine and the bay leaves; cover the pot and place into the preheated oven for 1 hour and 30 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and quite tender.

NFCA's Critical Research Study: Gluten in Medications
As somone who has a bag of 19 prescriptions I take almost every day, this is an issue that clearly concerns me. I am indebted to NFCA for sharing it, and I post it here.
Thank you NFCA for all you do. You are my go-to source for GF and Celiac Information.
*****5 Stars
In case you haven't heard, NFCA has launched a very important survey for anyone living gluten-free, and we need help from all of you to spread the word! Here are the details:
Last November, the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness (NFCA) announced that it would conduct a first-of-its-kind research study on gluten in medications, funded by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). NFCA, partnering with St. John's University College of Pharmacy and Allied Health Professions, is conducting this research in two parts. The first part of the study is happening now: a survey of the celiac and gluten sensitive populations.
NFCA urges all people who are following a gluten-free diet to participate. Participants will be asked about their experiences taking medicine. They will also be asked to share information if they think they might have had a gluten-related reaction to an over-the-counter or prescription medicine. Results from the survey will guide the second phase of the study: our team will test some of the medicines identified in the survey to see if they contain gluten.
This critically needed preliminary research aims to validate or nullify the anecdotal adverse experiences associated with gluten in medications that have been reported by people with celiac disease and gluten sensitivity. It is a first step to determine if more investigation is needed, which may lead to additional research, labeling, and safe use guideline initiatives. More information about the Safe Use Initiative can be found at www.fda.gov/safeuseinitiative
We are looking to generate as MANY responses as possible to strengthen our research. We need YOUR help in this effort. We ask that you circulate this message and invite all those who are gluten-free to complete this survey.
To participate in the this survey, please go to www.CeliacCentral.org/Survey. The survey takes between 4-15 minutes to complete. It closes on February 28, 2012.
When posting about this survey, please use the above survey link or post the following link to our announcement in NFCA's Research News: http://www.celiaccentral.org/research-news/gluten-in-medications-survey-now-a...
