Replacements

Marinara Sauce

A vibrant, velvety sauce bursting with the essence of ripe tomatoes, fragrant garlic, and a hint of fresh basil. Its rich, tangy aroma is like a warm embrace from your Italian grandmother's kitchen.

Oat Flour

Oat flour is a gluten-free flour made from finely ground oats, offering a nutritious alternative to wheat-based flours. Originating from ancient agricultural practices, it has gained popularity in modern health-conscious cuisines. Its flavor is mild yet distinctly nutty, with a subtle sweetness that complements both savory and sweet dishes. The texture is fine and smooth, providing a tender crumb in baked goods. When used in cooking, oat flour absorbs liquids well, contributing to a moist consistency in batters and doughs, though it can brown quickly if overheated. Its unique properties make it a versatile choice for those seeking to avoid gluten or incorporate more whole grains into their diets.
