Making A gluten-free "cup Of Noodles"?


kareng

Recommended Posts

kareng Grand Master

Last year, when we were skiing, some people had the ingredients from a gluteny Cup of Noodles instant soup in plastic baggies.  At the warming hut, they used the hot water and cups and made a little cup of soup.  I would like to do something like this.

 

I know I could use Knorr instant bouillon packets and that may be all I can do.  I wanted to see if anyone had any ideas for little noodles that would cook in a minute with some hot water?  Or little dried peas or carrot pieces?    Any ideas?

I was thinking more along the lines of a completely dried soup.  Something that doesn't need refrigeration or could go bad.  Like a gluten instant noodle cups where you just add hot water to reconstitute.

 

this sort of thing

What about the Thai Kitchen ramen noodles? You could take those out of the package and put them in a cup and add boiling water.

And even if you don't have a food dehydrater you can dehydrate carrots in the oven. Open Original Shared Link

You can also purchase dehydrated veggies off of Amazon. I buy them to have them on hand for making soup.

I guess I will have to experiment.  See if hot, not boiling, water will make noodles soft.  I wonder if WF has dehydrated veggies?  Maybe I am making this more complicated than it needs to be.  I might just be happy to have the warm chicken broth from the KNoor packets.....

I  think  gluten free on a  shoestring  has  a recipe  .......Trader  Joe's  has  a  noodle bowls  that  should be  microwaved  but  we  have  done  them  with just  boiling  hot water  when  primitive camping....

Those thai kitchen noodle packets are pretty good.  Give you that ramen feeling.

kareng Grand Master

Thanks.  I'll look for those Trader Joes ones.  I don't think I have seen the Thai Kitchen ones.  I'll look for those, too!

LauraTX Rising Star

I have seen the thai kitchen ones at walmart.  Also, they make thin rice noodles that you cook by putting them into hot broth or water, they are so thin you can't boil them really to keep them intact.  I think thai kitchen makes them, as well as others.  Those may be good to have a larger quantity and control what broth you use- maybe put some dried noodles and broth in a mason jar and take it along where you are going.

I love the Mai Fun rice sticks. Sit them for 5 minutes in hot water and they're done. I love the texture, too.

You could put some HerbOx Chicken Bouillion in a zip lock bag with some broken rice noodles.  Put it in a cup with water and microwave, when wanted.

Yeah... but even a small microwave can get kind of heavy in my backpack while skiing.    :lol:

Oldest son does ride a snowboard - that thing is wide enough to strap a microwave to!  Now we just need to find a plug on the top of the mountain!

The Thai Kitchen soups in the little bags are easy to make without cooking.  Squeeze the bag to break the rice noodles into smaller pieces (just to make it easier) and pour the noodles into a cup.  Add hot water to cover, add seasonings, and just let it sit until the noodles are soft.  Some of the seasoning packages are a little hard to open, so you might need a scissors.

Thanks.  I would probably open them and separate into smaller portions - so they would fit in a paper coffee cup.  But this has gotten me to thinking about bringing a "tin" camping cup.  

 

I just know that I will be happier if I can have a little something hot when everyone else is eating.

Sorry to jump in, but I've been doing kind of the same thing at work. Get some thin, easy to soak rice noodles (this might take some time to figure out at home first. Sit them in some hot or boiling water and see how well/quickly they soften up), you can break them up into smaller bunches if you want, zippie bags, whatever, and soak in hot (as you can find) water in a mug or whatever.

For seasoning, maybe a powdered broth of some sort, mix in extra spices. Get some dehydrated veggies if you can.

I just soaked noodles and steamed broccoli in some hot water from the kettle here at work, so no reason why it wouldn't work on the go.

A good insulated mug/themos would be a great thing to have on you.

 

Additional thought: If you had an insulated mug, you could actually put the noodles, seasonings, and even some fresh veg in there, seal it up, and then when you're ready fill it up with "boiling" water, shake it up good, and let it sit for 10-15 min or so. Tahdaaaa...
 

I haven't skied in years. Let me know if you figure out the portable microwave.

Thanks.   I am going to experiment tomorrow.

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.
    • trents
      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.
