PRODUCT: Cheddar Cheese Biscuit
There’s no shortage of gluten free breads, pastas and pastries on the market today, which is great news for people sensitive or allergic to the controversial protein. Many of the aforementioned, however, often miss the mark when attempting to recreate the texture and mouth feel of the so-called “real thing.” Fortunately, Duinkerken Foods has discovered the secret formula.
Hailing all the way from Prince Edward Island, the company is family owned and specializes in allergen free baking mixes. Established in 2005, everything started when president and CEO Brenda van Duinkerken, an avid baker, was diagnosed with celiac disease a decade earlier. Not loving the selection of gluten-free items available at the time, she spent the next several years developing the wide range of healthy and great-tasting recipes now sold across the country.
The Cheddar Cheese Biscuit Mix is a perfect example. Almost everything needed is included in the box except four tablespoons of oil, half a cup of cheddar cheese and a little butter and water. Simply combine all the ingredients, bake for 20-22 minutes and out of the oven come golden, fluffy biscuits that are crunchy on the outside and soft and crumbly on the inside. PRODUCT
OF THE YEAR
All of Duinkerken’s offerings — like cake, cookie, muffin, pizza mixes and more — are made in a dedicated gluten, wheat, nut, and soy free facility so no matter the dietary restriction, those affected can breath easy. In addition, the non-GMO ingredients contain zero preservatives, artificial colours or flavours and are enriched with essential vitamins and minerals.
Look for its products at major stores and retailers like Amazon, IGA, Safeway, and Walmart. Duinkerken also provides commercial services to places like restaurants and hotels, and private label opportunities. More info can found be on the website at www.duinkerkenfoods.com. ◆
