The Best Gf Bread Ever!

I think someone already posted about this, but it deserves a second airing! I just made a loaf of gluten (and dairy) free bread from a mix by Breads From Anna. This bread is amazing. The texture is exactly like real bread, it's chewy and stretchy and light. Tastes fantastic. Next time I think I will replace the olive oil with (DF) butter and maybe substitute salt for the sugar (or just add some extra salt) - but that's my English tastebuds. American wheat bread always tasted too sweet to me anyway.

I feel like a whole new world has opened up! Only downside is, I think my Paleo diet just became extinct! :lol:

Oh yeah, here's the link: Open Original Shared Link

It's not cheap, but god is it worth it!

I have been raving about this bread for a year, I love it! It is better then some gluten breads in my book. I do mine in a bread maching but I keep wanting to try it in a french bread roll so I can then make crostini out of it and use it for dipping in olive oil, garlic and red peppers. Yum.

I am certain I am her best customer! I buy it by the case (the regular mix) and make it into loaves. I slice it with my handy-dandy knife that cuts uniform slices and freeze them in packets of 2 for sammies to take to work. I also make it in English Muffin rounds for rolls.

Anna (with whom I've emailed) said it makes great pizza crusts too, but I've not tried that.

It was the ONE terrific find that took away all my feelings of deprivation at having to follow a gluten-free diet.

I agree, Anna's breads are a gift from heaven. I use the regular bread mix. I am lucky, as I can buy the mix locally and bake two loaves with the one bag of mix. It is much cheaper than buying a loaf of that disgusting gluten-free bread they sell in the freezer in specialty stores! If Anna (who lives in Iowa) were here right now, I would give her a big hug and kiss!!! :D

Dear Luvs2eat:

Can you share Anna's email address with me? I would love to tell her how much she is brightening the lives of Celiacs. Thanks.

glutenrevolution@eathlink.net is her address. Also, she is about to introduce a new gluten-free pie crust very soon. I'm so excited! :rolleyes:

Good timing - I just made my first loaf last night. I bought it over 6 months ago but finally hauled out my bread machine. It IS awesome! I was emailing with Anna today, too, because on her website, all of the mixes have potato starch in them, but the one I made last night didn't. She looked into it and the regular one does not have potato starch - the website is in error. Just in case anyone else is nightshade-intolerant like me.

I had the best chicken salad sandwich today, and didn't even have to toast the bread! I hope I can handle the cornstarch and the bean content because I would have to have to give up this bread. Looking at my checking account - can I buy a case right now???

Stephanie

PS on edit - most amazinig was the fact I didn't have to fish out my bread machine's paddle before the second kneading cycle, like I have read to do with so many gluten-free bread recipes... ahhhhh, just pushed a button and it went!

this might be a dumb question -- but can you also make the mix with a mixer (i.e. without the bread machine)? i don't have a bread machine; actually, i don't have the mixer yet either, but i'm hoping Santa will be good to me this year! i need fresh bread. :(

Sure you can, my mom mixes it by hand and bakes it in the oven. I will say the texture of hers is a bit different then mine but the taste is the same. I would think with a mixer it would be more "mixed up" like the cycle in my bread machine (as opposed to my moms hand mixing) and would be more like the consistancy of mine.

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Sarah Grace,  Thank you for the update!  It's so good to hear from you!  I'm glad Thiamine, B Complex and magnesium have helped you.  Yes, it's important to take all three together.    I had to quit eating cheese and nuts a long time ago because they triggered migraines in me, too.  They are high in tyrosine, an amino acid, found also in fermented foods like sauerkraut and red wine.   I found taking Tryptophan very helpful with migraines.  Tryptophan is a precursor of serotonin and people with migraines are often low in serotonin.  (Don't take tryptophan if you're taking an SSRI.)     This recent study shows tryptophan really helps. The association between dietary tryptophan intake and migraine https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31254181/   For immediate respite from a migraine, try smiling REALLY BIG, mouth closed, tongue pressed against roof of mouth, and crinkle up your eyes like you just heard or saw the funniest thing...  This causes an endorphin release in the brain.  Usually it's the funny event, then the endorphin release and then the smile.  Smiling first makes the endorphin center think it missed something and it catches up quickly by releasing endorphins after the big crinkle eyed smile.  Must make crinkly eyes with smile or it won't work.  If you do this too frequently within a short time frame (several hours), you can deplete your endorphins, but you'll make more in a couple of hours, so no worries. Get your thyroid checked, too.  Migraines are also seen in low thyroid function (Hashimoto's or hypothyroidism).  Celiac and thyroid problems go hand in hand.   Vitamin D helps, too.  Low Vitamin D is found in migraine.   I'm so glad you're doing better.

      Its been a complete nightmare dealing with all these health issues one thing after another and being told many different things.I am looking for a new primary care physician considering when I told my past doctor of 25 years I was diagnosed before any foods eliminated from my diet and now this year at age 54 no longer able to push considering Im always exhausted, leg pain , stomach,skin and eye issues,high blood pressure to name a few all worsen because I was a  school bus driver and few years until my immune system went to hell and was fired because of it.Im still struggling now, Im sibo positive and been told im not celiac and that I am.I have a hernia and dealing with menopause. Its exhausting and is causing depression because of non medical help. Today I saw another gastrointestinalist and he said everything im feeling doesn't add up to celiac disease since my ITg levels are normal so celiac disease is under control and it's something else. I for got I had Barrett's esophagus diagnosed in 2007 because recent doctors down played it just like my celiac disease. Im currently looking for a pcp in my area because it is affecting me personally and professionally. Im told since celiac looks under control it's IBS and I need to see a therapist to control it. Gastrointestinalist around here think only food consumption and if ITG looks normal its bit celiac disease it's something else. Is this right? This is what im being told. I want medical help but told its IBS.Im feel lost by " medical team "

      My migraines generally have their onset during the early morning hours as well. Presently, I am under siege with them, having headaches all but two days so far this month. I have looked at all the things reported to be common triggers (foods, sleep patterns, weather patterns, stress, etc.). Every time I think I start to see a pattern it proves not to pan out in the long run. I'm not sure it's any one thing but may, instead, be a combination of things that coalesce at certain times. It's very frustrating. The medication (sumatriptan or "Imatrix") is effective and is the only thing that will quell the pain. NSAIDs, Tylenol, even hydrocodone doesn't touch it. But they only give you 9 does of sumatriptan a month. And it doesn't help that medical science doesn't really know what causes migraines. They know some things about it but the root cause is still a mystery.
