Kinnikinnick Angel Food Cake Mix


Lisa

Recommended Posts

Lisa Mentor

I ordered four boxes of Kinnikinnick Angel Food Cake Mix, since I have not had my favorite cake in over six years and it's strawberry season here.

 

I am a bit dismayed when the additional ingredients call for 12 egg whites.  Not a worry about the egg whites, but what to do with a dozen egg yokes. Any suggestions?

 

 

I must have this cake with sugared strawberries and the juice and whipped cream and it summer and stuff.

Yumm caramel creme brulee...on my short list of favorites.  I printed it  out.  Thank you.

Last time I made angel food cake I made lemon curd to top it with and ice cream with my yolks. You don't need an ice cream maker to make ice cream, just patience and an alarm to remind you to check on it frequently.

1st - you totally do not need to buy a mix for this sort of cake.  It's flour and sugar, and most flours work just fine.

2nd - when I did angel food cupcakes for my daughter's second birthday, I used the egg yolks to make homemade ice cream.  it was super yummy, and goes well with strawberries and angel food cake. ;)

We bought this mix last week at Green market, it was super yummy.

If you think the mix is good, try homemade - just as easy and more delicious!  I did a taste test. 

 

My favourite way to use egg yolks is in Zabaglione.  I sometimes throw in an extra couple of yolks into frittatas.  My husband would say chocolate pots de creme would be his first pick.  They are fantastic!  And don't forget Hollandaise.

I think I would just buy the egg whites in a carton and use what the package calls for...seems like it would be cheaper since you wouldn't be having to find a use for all the yolks.

I appreciate all the suggestions and have put some to use. But, this is by far the most practical use/method ever!  Duh... Thank you so must for that suggestion Karichelle! ;)   Some times we (or I) get too far into the forest to see the trees. :rolleyes:

Egg whites in a carton won't work.  Carton egg whites (by law) must be pasteurized.  The process of heating them for pateurization prevents them from being able to form stiff peaks when beating them to incorporate air.  (And I have verified this by personal experience. It really doesn't work.)

 

There's chemistry for ya!

I have used that cake mix with egg whites quite a few times and it turned out fine each time. It's possible I am buying unpasteurized egg whites (I never noticed) but egg whites from a carton can work.

 

That is my boys' favourite type of cake - puffy sugar cake. Yummy.  LOL

A regular cake can use eggs in a carton. Angel food cake is functionally different from a standard cake, and relies upon creating a matrix of egg protein and air to have its height and texture. If you've managed to whip carton egg whites into stiff peaks, well, more power to you, and congrats!

      So, is their reasoning for doing another biopsy after you've been gluten free for awhile to get a comparison of before and after? In other words, there should be healing of the SB lining if you go gluten free for awhile if you have celiac disease?

      Welcome to the forum, @Tazzy11! Yes, your DGP-IGG test is positive. It means you could have celiac disease. But there are other possible causes for an elevated DGP-IGG count. I note that your TTG-IGA was not positive. The TTG-IGA is considered the chief celiac antibody test and a bit more reliable than the DGP-IGG. But let me ask you an important question. Prior to the blood draw, had you already begun to limit your intake of gluten? Also, were these the only two tests ordered to check for celiac disease? A physician should always order what we call the "total IGA" test (it goes by other names as well) to check for IGA deficiency. If you are IGA deficient, the scores for individual IGA celiac antibody tests, such as the TTG-IGA will be falsely low. By the way you spelled "coeliac" I judge you must be in the UK. There are several other antibody tests that can ordered when checking for celiac disease in order to get a more complete picture. Here is an article outlining the various tests:

      This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.    Per this article: They will likely schedule an endoscopy to see if you have celiac disease, and for this they would want you to continue eating gluten daily until that test is completed.

      You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
