    Oh, Finnish, EU, this is going to be easy: We have thousands of small gourmet chocolatiers. The big gourmet ones like Domori generally have a “may contain traces” list, but e.g. Bonnat Chocolatiers should be completely allergen-free. Expect 60-100 Euro/kg but the taste is worth the price (at least once in a while), finding a shop that delivers to Finland shouldn’t be too much of an issue.

    Regarding sauces: Try gelatin as a thickener, boiling it, as happens naturally with glace, so it doesn’t turn into jelly just a thickener. I usually use roux because it’s slightly better than plain starch but gelatin, it just coats the whole mouth. Buckwheat should also be an option for noodles. Modern soba noodles generally contain wheat but traditionally they were pure buckwheat, steamed instead of boiled they’re too brittle to survive that. Ready-made glass noodles should often be gluten-free, best if fried IMO.

    And yes you definitely should start a food blog. Restrictions foster creativity every artist knows that. Probably did my best cooking when keeping pretty much keto for “this looks like really good food” reasons, not even nutrition. You can make a cake out of almond/nut flour, carrots, whipped honey and whipped egg, and it’s darn good. Also fills you up after a single slice.

      Thanks.

      Yeah rice noodle have been great. Rummo glutenfree pasta made with care is also pretty nice. They’ve put effort in.

      I’ve been using the butcher’s a lot more, I can tell you.

      I also realised why I always preferred Haribo candies to some local ones like aakkoset or Pantteri etc, Haribo is made with gelatin, no wheat, as opposed to the others.

      Yeah it’s not a huge challenge finding some, but it’s not like theyre on every small grocery store shelf. Although this does make me cycle to better stores, sometime annoying but also rewarding. Sometimes just feels so restrictive walking past 90% of the products in a store.

      Butcher’s for like horse, reindeer, elk, deer. A few beef steaks as well, although beef isn’t as moral, so to speak. Beef tallow next when I find some, to replace butter in some dishes.

      Sounds delicious. I’m still not yet into baking, trying to manage the cooking part first. Could do both, but I’m just so lazy at cleaning I do the necessary one and I think that’s actual nutrition. Although I have had problems finding proper breakfast pastry gluten free, but there’s some delicious dark chocolate gluten free dairy free cupcakes. Kinda expensive tho.
