In the last few months we tried several receipes and all tasted funny to all of the family. I've used both potato starch (not flour) and corn starch in place of the tapioca successfully. I've used the flour blend listed here on the website and have NO issues with any funny tastes -- thought at first the funny taste was the X-Gum, but it was the tapioca for us. Hope this helps.

My first question is what is tapioca flour supposed to taste like? When I have used it in a biscuit and bread recipe, they had an overwhelming chemically taste. I dipped my finger in the tapioca flour and realized that was the culprit. Is there something wrong with mine or is tapioca flour just bad tasting? Second, my daughter just arrived home from school and is craving pizza. I found your pizza crust recipe and am eager to try it. Can I substitute white rice flour for the brown, or more importantly, what is the different between the two in regards to using them in a recipe? Thanks for your time and for all the information you provide. I look forward to exploring your sites more fully.

So sorry I did not get a chance to enter mine in, but my latest favorite mix is sorghum, brown rice and teff. I have been getting great results with it too. Hope you are having a great day!
