    Gluten-free St. Patrick's Day

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    Celiac.com 03/11/2011 - St. Patrick's Day is once again upon us, which means it's a good time to prepare for a successful gluten-free celebration of the wearing of the green.

    One good thing for people on a gluten-free diet is that most traditional corned beef and cabbage recipes are gluten free. So, of course, are carrots and potatoes.

    Celiac.com Sponsor (A12):
    If you plan of making corned beef, you should know that most commercial corned beef is gluten free. Some brands that are specifically labeled 'gluten free,' or which the makers' websites claim to be gluten-free, include:

    • Brookfield Farms
    • Colorado Premium - all corned beef products
    • Cook's
    • Freirich - all corned beef
    • Giant Eagle
    • Grobbel's Gourmet corned beef briskets
    • Hormel
    • Libby's Canned Meats (Corned Beef and Corned Beef Hash)
    • Market Day: Corned Beef Brisket
    • Mosey's corned beef
    • Nathan's corned beef
    • Safeway, Butchers cut bulk-wrapped corned beef brisket, corn beef brisket, vac-packed cooked corn beef
    • Thuman’s cooked corn beef brisket, first cut corned beef (cooked and raw), top round corned beef (cooked), cap and capless corned beef
    • Wegmans corned beef brisket.
    Many other brands not listed are also gluten free. Be sure to read the ingredients on the package, including those for any extra seasonings. Some labels may list natural flavorings, which rarely contain gluten. Still, if you're not sure, try to check the manufacturer's website, or maybe look for another brand.

    Gluten-Free Corned Beef Recipe

    Ingredients:
    6 pounds corned brisket of beef
    6 peppercorns, or gluten-free packaged pickling spices
    3 carrots, peeled and quartered
    3 onions, peeled and quartered
    1 medium-sized green cabbage, quartered or cut in wedges
    Melted butter (about 4 tablespoons)

    Directions:
    Place the corned beef in water to cover with the peppercorns or mixed pickling spices (in supermarkets, these often come packaged with the corned beef). Cover the pot or kettle, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 5 hours or until tender, skimming occasionally. During the last hour, add the carrots and onions and cover again. During the last 15 minutes, add the cabbage. Transfer meat and vegetables to a platter and brush the vegetables with the melted butter.

    Serve with boiled parsley potatoes, cooked separately. (The stock can be saved to add to a pot roast or stew instead of other liquid.)

    Serves 6, with meat left over for additional meals.

    For those who love Irish soda bread, the following soda bread recipe is a modified version of the Irish Soda Bread recipe from Easy Gluten-Free Baking by Elizabeth Barbone (2009 Lake Isle Press). This version skips caraway seeds, because I hate them. However, if you are so inclined, you can add a tablespoon with the last dry ingredients before baking.

    Amazing Gluten-free Irish Soda Bread

    Ingredients:
    Vegetable shortening for pan
    White Rice Flour for pan
    3 1/2 cups white rice flour
    1/2 cup sweet rice flour
    1/4 cup cornstarch
    1/4 cup potato starch (not potato flour)
    5 teaspoons baking powder (Gluten Free)
    1 1/2 teaspoons salt
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
    1 1/2 cups currants
    1 cup (2 sticks) butter softened
    2 large eggs
    1 cup granulated sugar
    2 cups buttermilk

    Directions:
    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and Grease and rice flour a 9 inch springform pan.

    2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients

    3. In a large bowl, cream together butter, eggs, and sugar until light and fluffy, about 1 minute.

    Use high speed on a handheld mixer or medium-high on a stand mixer. Stir in half of the dry ingredients. Use low speed on a handheld mixer or stand mixer for this. Stir in buttermilk until thoroughly combined. Add remaining dry ingredients and caraway seeds (if desired) and raisins.

    4. Pour batter into prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake about 1 1/2 hours or until a tester inserted in center comes out clean.

    5. Place pan on a wire rack to cool. About 5 minutes. Remove Bread from pan and allow to cool completely on rack. Makes 1 loaf.

    makes 1½ pounds dough You will probably find many uses for this good, user-friendly dough. Recipe from Wendy Warks Living Healthy with Celiac Disease (AnAffect, 1998). Wendy uses this for pretzels, breadsticks, cinnamon rolls, and pizza crust. Use it as a substitution for wheat flour dough in your favorite recipes.
    2 teaspoons unflavored dry gelatin
    2¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
    2/3 cup warm water (105F-115F)
    2 tablespoons sugar
    2½ cups Wendy Wark's Gluten-Free Flour Mix

    ¼ cup instant non-fat dry milk powder
    ½ teaspoon salt
    3 tablespoons vegetable oil

    This recipe may be prepared using a mixer and oven or in a bread machine. This loaf is light and airy, yet substantial enough to use as sandwich bread (however, if you want a denser loaf, simply add 1/4 cup dry milk powder to the dry ingredients).
    The recipe boasts the addition of flax seed meal and flax seeds which contribute a large amount of dietary fiber and other beneficial nutritional properties like high omega 3.  The simple addition of two tablespoons of flax seed meal to this bread also adds four grams of dietary fiber and three grams of protein.  As an alternative, you can simply use 2 eggs in place of the flax seed and water mixture, and you will add the dry yeast to the dough at the final mixing step.
    When using a bread machine, always be sure to add all liquid ingredients t...

    Stuffing is standard fare at just about every Thanksgiving or holiday meal that involves a bird. This recipe will help those with gluten-sensitivities to keep the stuffing right there on the plate next to the turkey. Served with mashed potatoes, gluten-free gravy, and maybe a little cranberry sauce, and you've got the makings of a great gluten-free holiday!
    Ingredients:
    5-6 cups white, gluten-free bread (about 2 loaves), cut into one-inch cubes, toasted and cooled
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    3 cups celery, chopped
    2 shallots, minced
    1 large or 2 medium yellow onions, chopped
    1 tablespoon fresh thyme, minced
    1 tablespoon fresh sage, minced
    1-2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, minced
    1-1½ cups gluten-free chicken broth
    ½ cup white wine
    1 egg yolk
    1 teaspoon s...

    What was your first reaction when your doctor told you that anything containing gluten had to be eliminated from your diet?  After you stopped screaming, “But I HAVE to have my pizza!” did you begin to panic?  Know this—there is almost NOTHING that you used to eat before being diagnosed that you cannot eat now; you just have to learn to make it a little differently.
    If you don’t know how to do something it can seem difficult at first, but with a little experience it becomes easy.  This same principle applies to the multitude of combinations of the various alternative flours used in gluten-free baking.  The basic gluten-free flour mixture consists of 2 cups rice flour, 1 cup potato starch flour, and 1 cup tapioca flour.  This combination may be used to replace wheat flour in mos...
