Paleo Diet Primer
Are you new to the paleo diet? Here are some quick facts:

• The principle motto is, "If a caveman didn’t eat it, neither should you"
• Paleo eaters avoid grains, legumes, sugar, dairy and processed foods
• They do eat vegetables, grass-fed meat, seafood, eggs, fruit, nuts like almonds, coconut, almond and olive oils, and tubers

Paleo followers believe that returning to a pre-agricultural diet is beneficial: many report weight loss and increased energy. However, just because you want to align more closely with our hunter-and-gatherer forebears doesn't mean you need to throw out your recipe cards entirely.

Popular (and delicious) paleo substitutes for wheat flour include almond flour, coconut flour and cassava flour. However, having a multi-purpose flour blend on hand makes it easy to try that paleo banana bread recipe you’ve been eyeing!

Bob's Red Mill Frequently Asked Questions

Does Bob's Red Mill make any dairy/casein free products?
Yes. The majority of the products are naturally dairy and casein free. The line of gluten free products is dairy and casein free. All of the flours, cereals, and grains are also dairy and casein free. They do have a few regular mixes which do contain dairy (and casein) and they encourage you to check the ingredients to be sure.

Can the baking mixes be made with dairy and egg alternatives?
Yes. All of the baking mixes can be prepared with egg or milk alternatives. For any recipe calling for milk, you can use a replacement "milk" made from soy, rice, almond, or hemp. However, soymilk works best. To replace butter, use a non-hydrogenated margarine, shortening, or soy margarine because using a regular oil may not work. To replace buttermilk, simply add 1 teaspoon lemon juice or cider vinegar per one cup of milk replacement. Stir and let it stand a minute before adding to your recipe. If a recipe calls for milk powder, you can use a non-dairy milk equivalent in powdered form, such as soy powders or powder alternatives made from potato. If the recipe calls for less than 2 tablespoons of milk powder, you can simply omit the ingredient. Popular egg alternatives are the use of flaxseeds (great for cookies, cakes, & muffins), flaxseed meal (best with any baked good with a grainy or nutty taste), tapioca flour (great for wheat-free baked goods), premade starch blends (best for cookies or recipes calling for egg as a binder), bananas (great for muffins and sweet breads -does add a banana flavor), apple sauce (great for muffins and sweet breads with no additional taste), or blended tofu (works best with cakes).

• Where are Bob's Red Mill grains, beans, and seeds grown?
  The raw ingredients are sourced from farmers throughout the United States and Canada. Occasionally, ingredients are not available in North America, so they look internationally for those items.

Are these products genetically modified?
No. All of Bob's Red Mill products originate from identity-preserved, non-GMO seeds. This means that the seed planted in the ground is non-GMO. They do not guarantee the complete absence of GMO materials in the products because of factors like wind drift and pollinators.

Do their products have additives or preservatives?
No. Bob's Red Mill products do not contain additives or preservatives.

How should you store your products?
It is recommended that you store Bob's Red Mill products in your refrigerator or freezer, both before and after opening. This will extend the shelf life up to 6 months beyond the sell by date printed on the package. You may also store their products in a cool, dry place; however, this subjects the product to possible bug infestation and is not ideal, unless it is in an airtight container.

How long can you use a product after the "Sell By" date?
If stored properly in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer, a product can be used up to 6 months beyond the sell by date printed on the package. Because of their high oil content, whole grains can spoil easily. It is recommended using the old adage, "when in doubt, throw it out."

Are Bob's Red Mill products Certified Kosher?
Yes. All of their products are certified Kosher. Most of their products carry a Kosher certification from origin before ever reaching the production facility. Because the processing plant does not use any chemicals, additives, or preservatives and they are a pure and natural food company, they are consistent with lawful Kosher standards and certified by a Rabbi who makes regular inspections -Rabbi Avrohom Teichman of Kehilla Kosher of Los Angeles, CA.

Are their products Certified Organic?
Bob's Red Mill does offer a wide selection of organic products certified by Quality Assurance International (QAI). Make sure the product is clearly labeled organic, as some items are available both organic and conventional.

How can I integrate whole grains into my baking?
Adding whole grains to your baking can be quite simple. Replace up to 50% of your baking with whole wheat flours. For instance, when a recipe calls for white flour, you can use half white flour and half whole wheat flour. Or, replace up to 25% of your recipes with whole grain flours such as quinoa, barley, millet, and spelt flours.

Does the nutritional information refer to dry or cooked product?
All of the nutritional information represents dry, unprepared product.
