RE: cornstarch substitute in baking

[Guest guest]

What are you making?I'm making a dish that has a sauce which uses cornstarch (I assume as a thickener) What would be a good SCD legal substitute?-UC - 1 yearSCD - 3.5 months 100% strict and 4 months restricted diet.Asacol - 4 pills 3 times a day - hopefully scd will help me get off these! No more Hydrocortisone or Prednisone!Hotmail® has ever-growing storage! Don’t worry about storage limits. Check it out.

What kind of dish? What are the other ingredients? There are several ways

you can proceed, depending on what you're making.

making apple and leek stuffed pork tenderloin. The loin is butterflied and stuffed with the leek/apple. There is also a sauce that is cooked down and you pour on top or dip into. The sauce is garlic, brandy or applejack, thyme, apple cider, cornstarch, and dijon mustard. I will be leaving out the brandy/apple jack though.-UC - 1 yearSCD - 3.5 months 100% strict and 4 months restricted diet.Asacol - 4 pills 3 times a day - hopefully scd will help me get off these!

Though in your instance, a spoonful of almond flour might work.I bought a pressure cooker yesterday. Tried it out with a pork loin, with a carrot, onion, celery leaves, chicken broth and some seasoning (along with the water needed). When the pork was done, I reduced the broth, but didn't wait long enough to actually make it sauce consistency. (I could have, but everything else was ready.) So I pureed it with a hand blender and we ate it like soup. It was fantastic. But I do routinely reduce liquids to sauce-thickess when I cook, because I'm a sauce freak.M.

i'll do that. I remembered reading something about that in the book but it's impossible to remember everything about this diet when you need the info!

Since you are making a sauce for the pork, could you sautee onions very soft and puree them to serve as your thickener?
