Schar's Ciabatta And Simply Shari's Shortbread Cookies

I visited the the CDF Expo in Pasadena yesterday and sampled the Schar's Ciabatta rolls.  They were outstandingly good.  On Amazon, they get very high reviews. I also tried the shortbread cookies from from Simply Shari's that were wonderful.  They beat the Walkers brand by a country mile.  Now if I just lived close enough to some of the vendors that sell these products, I wouldn't have to pay an arm and a leg to have them shipped to me.  I got lots of coupons and samples for things I haven't tried before so I have a lot of tasting to do.

Gluten free events  are wonderful  as  you can get a great  supply  of  gluten-free  things  you may not know existed before....  sometimes online  you  can find  these  items all in one  stop &  save  on  shipping...several good  ones are available....

I have free  coupons  for gluten-free Walkers but  haven't  found  them  yet..... I will check out  Shari's.....

Lance crackers  is also on store shelves now. Peanut  butter  mini  crackers  are  good.. cheese  ones  okay...

Just to let you know, Vitacost . com has gluten free food products on sale (15% off) in honor of Celiac Awareness Month.  I think they carry the brands you mention.

Great to know that Schar's ciabatta rolls.  I purchased them two days ago at my local grocery store and cannot wait to give them a try.  I found with Udi's hamburger buns it is best to heat them in a 325 oven for about 5 minutes which crisps up the outside nicely.  I might try the same thing with the ciabatta rolls.

 

Most stores provide request cards for ordering items so that may be an option for you.  I live in a small town and surprisingly we are getting more and more gluten free items in stock but occasionally I have to put in a card for items.  it still is expensive though.  I can purchase a number of gluten free from Amazon (I am a prime member so I don't pay for shipping) or from Walmart.  Unfortunately a lot of items have to be purchased in bulk.

Actually, these ciabatta rolls are called "par baked". They need a few minutes of heating to complete the baking process.  You'll see what I mean when you look at the directions.  Enjoy!

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

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By cristiana · Posted

      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.

      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.

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
