combination with rye when baking bread. Combining flours ensures the loaf will rise well.

Semolina flour – Semolina is ground from hard wheat. It is pale yellow in colour and resembles corn meal. Semolina flour has a very high gluten or protein content. It is used in both making pasta and bread.

Sorghum flour – Sorghum is a millet-like grain that is very nutritious. Sorghum flour imparts a faint, sweet flavour to gluten-free products. It needs to be combined with other flours for baking.

Potato starch – Great supplementary flour to use in gluten-free baking. Potato starch is also used as a thickener for sauces and soups.

Potato flour – Heavier then potato starch, potato flour can be used in a similar way but it does carry more of a potato taste.

Cornstarch – A good combining ingredient in gluten-free baking – its taste is undetectable.

Amaranth flour – High in both protein and fiber, amaranth flour is also a good source of calcium. It has a nutty flavour and combines well with other gluten-free flours.

Quinoa flour – Quinoa, considered the most nutritious grain, is high in protein, calcium and iron.

Xanthan gum – Used as a thickening agent in gluten-free baking, xanthan gum is used as a binder and to retain moisture. Xanthan gum also adds to the volume of the bread. Can be replaced by guar gum. (Tip: Xanthan gum is also a good and natural way to keep blended vinaigrettes, dressings and marinades emulsified after blending.)

Gelatin – Although it is not necessary in gluten-free baking, gelatin adds protein and gives elasticity to bread. (If you are a vegetarian, you may not wish to use gelatin, as it is derived from meat.)

Tapioca flour – Grain-free flour that is derived from cassava root. Tapioca flour is starchy and imparts a slightly sweet flavour.

Cider vinegar – or dough enhancer (powder containing ascorbic acid) – improves texture of the bread as well as shelf life.

The Cuisinart CBK-200C is a sophisticated bread maker that has been designed for both novice and experienced bakers. This appliance offers a balance of usability, versatility, and advanced features, making it an ideal addition to any kitchen.

One of the standout features of the CBK-200C is its range of customizable settings.

The Cuisinart CBK-200C also boasts a unique technology called the dual kneading blades. This feature ensures that the dough is kneaded thoroughly and evenly, resulting in a better texture and crumb structure in the finished loaf. The dual blades work in tandem to knead the dough with precision while pushing the ingredients towards the center for maximum efficiency.

Another impressive characteristic is the machine's 3 crust settings: light, medium, and dark. This allows bakers to choose how toasted they want their bread's crust to be, catering to individual tastes. For those who enjoy time management, the CBK-200C offers a 13-hour delay start timer, letting users set the machine to start baking bread at their convenience, whether it be overnight or before they come home from work.

The user-friendly LCD screen provides clear visibility of settings and countdown timers, making it an easy-to-navigate interface even for those who are new to bread making. The removable pan and kneading blades are non-stick and dishwasher safe, ensuring clean-up is quick and hassle-free.

Safety is also a concern with the Cuisinart CBK-200C, which includes an automatic shut-off feature that kicks in once the bread is done baking. This gives users peace of mind, especially if they have to leave the kitchen during the baking cycle.
