Top gluten free tip - Gluten Free Suet Recipe

Ready made gluten free suet is difficult to track down, so if you're stuck, you can make your own. Take 2 parts solid vegetable fat to 1 part gluten free flour e.g. 100g of fat to 50g of flour. Put the fat and flour in a blender, and blitz for a few minutes until it is combined. Put the mixture back in the fridge and allow to cool, then use.
