What can I use instead?
egg (silken tofu or skip (depends on the dish)) → silken tofu or skip (depends on the dish). Carbonara without egg is not carbonara. Fried rice can skip the egg. We will not pretend otherwise. flour (a gluten-free blend (not plain rice flour alone for bread)) → a gluten-free blend (not plain rice flour alone for bread). Coatings and roux can swap. Yeast breads need a blend designed for gluten-free baking. cream (whole milk + a knob of butter) → whole milk + a knob of butter. Thinner and less rich. Reduce a little longer if you need body. butter → olive-oil. Use a little less oil than butter. Pastry and laminated doughs are a different problem.
