        "content_html": "<p>I&rsquo;ve found myself with some free time after seven years at my last job, so I&rsquo;ve jumped back in to a hobby that I&rsquo;ve been dabbling in for awhile: gluten-free baking. I was diagnosed with celiac back in 2020, and while the options available at the grocery store have gotten a lot better since the early 2000s, there&rsquo;s some stuff that&rsquo;s just better fresh. Quick breads, cookies, and the like have all been pretty good! I&rsquo;ve got a stellar banana bread, chocolate zucchini bread, and mixed berry muffin loaf dialed in.</p>\n<p>A few things have eluded me, especially pizza crust. That is, until King Arthur Baking came out with a <a href=\"https://shop.kingarthurbaking.com/items/gluten-free-pizza-flour\">de-glutenized wheat starch-based crust mix</a> that&rsquo;s <em>stellar</em>. I&rsquo;m not sure what food science wizardry was involved here, but the flavor is spot-on and the texture is a bit like biting into a crispy cloud? I can&rsquo;t sing the praises of this stuff enough.</p>\n<img src=\"https://cdn.uploads.micro.blog/291534/2026/gfpizza.jpg\" alt=\"Pepperoni pizza made with King Arthur&#39;s gluten-free crust mix\" title=\"GFPizza.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"599\" height=\"496\" />\n<p>And I think I&rsquo;m about half a decade late to the sourdough game, so I have some work to do here&hellip;but progress is being made! Turns out King Arthur also has a good bread flour mix made with the same kind of flour and starch mix. Still need to work on my rise times, but not bad for having made just a couple loaves.</p>\n<img src=\"https://cdn.uploads.micro.blog/291534/2026/gfsourdough.jpg\" alt=\"Gluten-free sourdough bread made with King Arthur&#39;s gluten-free bread flour\" title=\"GFSourdough.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"413\" />\n",
