Are you not able to enjoy eating any bread made from regular flour (wheat)?
Well no more worries!
Sanyo Electric began selling GOPAN, the world’s first bread maker that can make bread from regular grains of rice! Now that’s amazing! Just throw in some washed rice with water, salt, sugar, and shortening, dry yeast. Then, press START, and in about 4 hours, viola! Rice bread is ready!! And it seem like it does’n’t taste like ‘rice’. It’s a bit more chewy than flour rice, but from the reviews, it seems to taste pretty good. The machine is sold for approximately $600 in Japan. Hopefully, this will spread worldwide and will be available here as well.
I got the Panasonic one from Japan and use it with a transformer. The basic recipe uses added wheat gluten, so you need to use the gluten-free recipe and mode. The manual and controls are all in Japanese so I needed a friend to help figure out which mode to use – but am happy with the result. I think the Taiwan version could be used in the USA and am looking into getting one there for my parents in the US.
Thanks for the info PJ! They should have realized that products these days are being used around the world…English translation (in small type or something underneath) would have been smart. Great to hear though that you’re happy with the results
