Is sticky rice safe to eat?

Hopefully, you are referring to the type of rice called 'sticky rice', and not leftover rice that has gone bad. Sticky rice is also sometimes called glutinous rice, in a reference to the gluey texture the grains acquire while being cooked, rather than actual gluten; like other types of rice, glutinous rice is safe to eat for people who are gluten intolerant. The rice may be sold milled, in which case the outer husk is removed, or unmilled, in a pale brown variety. Brown sticky rice tends to be less sticky, although it is still gluier than other rice cultivars. It is also possible to find purple sticky rice, a Thai delicacy with a rich, nutty flavor.

What does shortening do to gluten when added to bread dough?

Shortening make the doughs for bread more workable and renders the final product more tender, and moist. Practically, thd fat shortens the gluten development and the length of the gluten strands when the flour is stirred with that moisture (so, they are called shortenings). Ever noticed the gluten structure form too much and the dough to be very sticky on over mixing, this is due to excessive gluten production from the proteins glutenin and gliadin. This is shortened by shortening. This problem is more in wheat breads which contains more gluten than others like rye bread. Hope it helps


What animal lives in the Rain-forests animal and starts with the letter X?

The Xenophilia. It is an arthropod that lives in the Amazon rainforest and feeds on flying insects. It catches these insects in a remarkable manner. The Xenophilia has evolved a long hollow snout from which it shoots a sticky substance known as gluten. As a flying insect zooms by the Xenophilia will shoot it out of the air with amazing accuracy. When the bug hits the ground it will have its wings pinned down by the sticky gluten and then will be easy prey for the Xenophilia.

Yup, gluten free. Sometimes the yeast starters that ferment other types of vinegar are made with malted barley (contains gluten) but not any apple ciders. They add dried yeast to ferment the sugars from the apple juice, then the acetobacter is added to convert the alcohol into acedic acid (vinegar). Enjoy it!
