No | Rating: 6    Pros: Cons: texture, consistency This recipe did not work for me. I have mixed reviews for carbquik in general. There never seemed to be enough gluten to make the dough elastic (I did kneed for a prolonged period of time). The dough practically fell apart in the water. Oh well. I think for sweet things, carbquik has been better, but for "bread" not so hot.

Yes | Rating: 1    Pros: I won't try it, again, and waste the money. Cons: fell apart in the water I never got to taste these. I did, exactly, as the recipe called for. As soon as they hit the water, they fell apart. I was left with muddy water, so to say. There wasn't one piece to taste. After several attempt, I tried baking them, and they turned into rocks. Would not recommend this to anyone. moonchild MAJOR LCF POSTER! Registered: November 2002 Location: Georgia Posts: 1903 Review Date: Wed October 25, 2006 Would you recommend the Recipe?
