Haha cannot believe I wrote "Wholecornsstore" LOL Thats funny!! I am sguessing itred tho and still have the "Brain fog" It "Whole Food Market?" I cannot even remember the name of the store LOL Any hoo I found 1 bag of the noodles I bought and it is made by : bionature : They are Rice , Potato and soy. I said I only found one of the bag , but I think I only bought one bag. I had two and only ended out buying one. Well maby I should go to bed now huh?

That could have been my error. From time to time, my tablet likes to jump all over the place and inserts letters and words. I am guessing it happened when I was typing "cornstarch" and my less than brilliant tablet added it to your blurb. Weird!

I get the trader joes brown rice pasta. I can't hardly tell the difference. It has a nice texture too and is hard to overcook to boot.

I really like GoGo Quinoa brand. It is a rice/quinoa combo pasta and it has a mouth feel and texture of wheat pasta. I belong to the ONFC and order it all from there as it is much cheaper than any grocery store or Walmart.

My daughter is vegetarian , ( not that , that makes a big dif in this thread) but she came to visit and I was telling her that I had bought some gluten-free pasta. She said the rice ones were really good. I know I have had rice noodles b4 and like them.

I'm very happy for this thread! I'm new and I just made spaghetti last night with De Boles rice spaghetti. OMG it was NASTY. Weird tasting and like a thick glutinous sludge in my mouth. BLEAH. 

Sorry I have nothing to contribute as I'm still experimenting, but thank you all!

Ty because I just made something with De Boles, I ate it but didn't like it!!! 1st the water was super thick as it was boiling, would of been good for gravy!! They package said do not over boil so I boiled it 3 minutes less than they said ... It sucked up all the gravy I had and it was a big pile of mush!! Yuk!!! I will cook the rest up for the cats or something I am not sure!! Good thing I didn't try it on hubbs 1st! I just bought what they had at the store!! I guess I'd better buy some on line. pftttt!! Well I love to order on line!! :) I will go for the Tink next time!! :)

You are correct on every point you made.  Gluten free pasta will never be the same as we remember....it's a different animal.  I use it for spaghetti and it may last one day, as left overs, with the sauce combined.  It does suck up liquids and leftovers are not too good.

 

Over cooking gluten free pasta is not too good.  You have to experiment and try different brands.  I do like Sam Mills (found at my local Food Lion) and I can't wait to order some Depuma's Gluten Free Fresh Raviolli.

 

 Maybe someday it will be the pasta of the past. :)

I am not a big fan of pasta anyway or bread!! hahaha must be my body knew i was allergic :) Not really I was forced to eat Biscuits and Gravy as a child and sense then I have never been a big fan of Bread!! Specially wet bread!! noodles I am not a big fan of because Hubbs loves them and eats them at just about every meal!! I get sick of them! So when I am in the mood, they'd better be good!!

Ancient quinoa is somewhat forgiving if it is overcooked, but it depends on the shape. Elbows hold up better than any other shape.

I've had good luck with the rice & corn pasta at Target. It's the store brand, Archer Farms, & it's made in Italy.  I've tried several rice-only brands, & they seemed really starchy. One brand turned the cooking water gelatinous.  However, Target has no dedicated gluten-free section (in spite of my FB posts...lol) so you'll have to look for it in the pasta section.

 

 

After seeing your post, I bought some of the Archer Farms Fusili last night - WOW. I am hooked! Thank you, bc if not for your post I never would have tried it!

We like Tinkyada. I boil it in a *lot* of salted boiling water, and only until slightly undercooked.

I always know it's done when all the starch rises to the top.

 

A suggestion, no matter what kind of pasta you're using: undercook it a little (al dente), rinse it it cold water, then put it in with whatever sauce or such your having it with and let it heat back up in it. That seems to help get the starch off and it holds together a bit better.

Another fan of the Ancient Harvest corn/quinoa pasta here. We have tried many, many gluten-free pastas & this one is GOOD.

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thank you very much @trents! This is super helpful. The only time I wasn’t sick after my diagnosis was when I was ordering and eating certified gluten-free meals from a company. I did that for a few months right after being diagnosed and then I started to try to figure it out how to cool and eat gluten-free meals myself. I think I’m probably getting low levels of gluten exposure and maybe that’s what’s making me ill. Possibly other things also not helping the situation (like dairy). Anyway this gives me something to focus on to see if it helps. So thanks for that!

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com, @Rejoicephd! 1. "Gluten Free" does not equate to "contains no gluten". According to FDA advertising regulations, it means it cannot contain more than 20ppm of gluten. This is a good standard for most in the celiac community but not good enough for those on the sensitive end of the spectrum. If you find the "Certified Gluten Free" symbol on a package that is even better, indicating that there is no more than 10ppm of gluten.  2. When you are choosing "gluten free" items from a restaurant, realize that it only means gluten is not an intentional ingredient. It does not rule out CC (Cross Contamination) caused by those cooking and preparing the food back in the kitchen who may be cooking it on the same surfaces or in the same pots/pans as they are gluten containing food items and handling it with the same utensils they are handling gluten-containing food. 3. About 8% of celiacs react to the protein avenin in oats as they do the protein gluten in wheat/barley/rye. In addition, some cultivars of oats actually contain the protein gluten. Many celiacs also react to the protein casein in dairy products as they do gluten or they are lactose intolerant. Eggs, soy and corn are also common "cross reactors" in the celiac community but oats and dairy are the most common.

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Hi everyone! I was diagnosed with celiac a year ago (they confirmed it on endoscopy following a positive TTG antibody and positive genetic test). I thought the gluten free diet thing wasn’t going to be that hard of an adjustment, but man was I wrong. I’m a year in and still having issues in terms of accidentally glutening myself and getting super sick (I’m starting to think I need to just bring my own food everywhere I go). And also even when I am eating foods that say they are gluten free, I’m still dealing with an upset stomach often. My GI doc said I should avoid dairy as well, and the internal medicine doc said my gut microbiome might be messed up from all of this. I’m just looking for some answers/ideas/tips on what additional things I can do to feel better. Do you all do avoid additional categories of foods beyond just gluten to help alleviate symptoms? Thanks!

      Weakly positive DGP IgA

      By trents · Posted

      If your total IGA is low then the values for the other IGA tests cannot be trusted. They will be depressed. Celiacs who have the DQ2 gene typically are on the more sensitive side as opposed to those who only have the DQ8. But keep in mind that having either or both of those genes does not equate to having celiac disease as 40% of the general population have one or the other and only about 1% of the general population develops active celiac disease. Genetic typing can be used for ruling it out, however. Because of the low total IGA, symptoms and the possession of the DQ2 gene, my suggestion would be for you to go seriously gluten free for a few months and see if your symptoms improve. It may be the only way you can ascertain if you are gluten intolerant because of the low total IGA.

      Weakly positive DGP IgA

      By Cat M · Posted

      Ah ok, I just saw didn’t even post the DGP IgA at all. 😫 I started with itching and hives Jan 2024, been taking a ton of meds and on Xolair and even that is not providing total relief. The other primary symptoms: intermittent but worsening abdominal pain, diarrhea and bloating. This summer I am just exhausted. I uploaded my 23andMe data to genetic lifehacks and discovered quite a few variations, including DQ2, MTHFR, VDR and I have always had very low ferritin, vitamin D and B12. I still think that mast cell disease makes the most sense, but latest labs show I am barely in range for thiamine, zinc and vitamin A, so the GI stuff feels more important to figure out than the hives right now. I did SIBO testing this morning. TTG IGA <2   0-3 is negative TTG IGG  3   0-5 is neg DGP IGA 21    20-30 is weak positive DGP IGG 4    0-19 is negative Although total IGA is not resulted, there is a footnote stating it was low and the reason they ran IGG.
