I Used A New Bread Recipe, It Came Out Very Bitter...

I made a new bread recipe today and the outcome was very bitter tasting. The bread itself looks wonderful, probably the prettiest loaf I've made, but it was inedible. The recipe had a quite a few ingredients I've not used before in bread so I'm not sure which one caused the bitter taste. I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me pin down what caused it. Here are the ingredients that I've not used in bread recipes before.

buckwheat (light)

garbanzo bean

amaranth

cocoa

guar gum ( I've always used xanthan, but this recipe called for half and half)

teff ( I have used this in cookies with not notice of bitterness, but maybe the sugar covered it?)

So does anyone have any ideas which flour it could be? I was leaning towards the garbanzo bean or amaranth, because they both have a strong scent to them. Any input would be greatly appreciated as this has me going crazy trying to figure out what caused the weird taste. Thanks.

I would say the garbanzo bean flour. Bean flours are generally known for their very strong flavor and aroma. Some people like them, while others hate them. I hate them. Next time i would either not use it or mix other flours with it to take away from the overly strong taste

      Sore muscles

      By Eldene · Posted

      I walk fast for fitness, 4 to 6 km per day. I am also 74 years old. Apart from the Celiac challenge, my lifestyle is healthy. I had a sciatiac nerve pinching under my one foot, with inflamation in my whole shin. It was almost cured, when the other shin started paining and burning. I do stretches, use a natural cooling gel and rest my feet. Can Celiac cause muscle pains/inflamation, or is it just over-excercising?

      Trader Joe's grocery prodcuts

      By LovintheGFlife · Posted

      I recently started shopping at a nearby Trader Joe's store. I was surprised at the number and variety of (healthy) gluten-free options sold there. I must admit their low prices are also quite tempting. However, I am curious as to the labeling on all their packages. While none of their products are certified as gluten-free, many are identified as 'GLUTEN FREE' on the packaging. Are these items safe for celiacs? Has anyone tried Trader Joe's products and have there been any adverse reactions?

      Gluten challenge

      By Beverley Ann Johnson · Posted

      HI, my doctor suggested one week of consuming gluten before blood tests.  I have been gluten free for 3 years.  Has anyone been through this and will I get exact results after one week of consuming gluten?  I don't even know if I can do this, if I get sick I am not sure if I can continue, any suggestions??  Thanks in advance.

      Not Sure What to Think

      By trents · Posted

      PPI's can be a wonderful healing agent when used as prescribed on the label which I believe recommends use of up to 8 weeks. But they are like antibiotics in that they are overprescribed and undermonitored. Docs generally prescribe them and then keep prescribing them because they take care of immediate symptoms so well. Physicians are more into treating symptoms than uncovering causes.
