Gluten Free All-Purpose Flour

Mixing flour is not one of my favorite chores.  Recently I was contemplating this trying to figure out why.  I think the reason is two-fold.  First and foremost, I don't receive any immediate yummy results from this.  Second, it is messy - very messy!  I don't like glitter because it spreads everywhere, flour does the same thing especially when working with large quantities of it.  Anyhow, I bit the bullet and mixed up twelve (12!) pounds of flour today.

Unlike New York, there is no bulk foods store here where you can purchase large quantities of potato starch, tapioca flour, and white rice flour.  However, when we are near Lincoln I stop in to the Natural Foods store and they sell 2 pounds of white rice flour for $2.22.  The biggest quantities of the potato starch and tapioca flour are the 24 ounce bags of Bob's Red Mill flour but I'll take what I can get.

Wondering what twelve pounds of gluten free all-purpose flour looks like?

If you're wondering what recipe we use, it's the Silvana's Kitchen Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour.  I've had the best results with this flour combination.  In most cases you can substitute this flour cup for cup in any gluten-full recipe.
