What Cooking Items To Replace?


KBart

Recommended Posts

If I missed a sticky on this, I apologize. I had a few questions about specific items in terms of replacement.

 

1) Cast iron - I saw several threads but I'm just wondering if I should just repalce or try and clean.

2) Le Cruset Enameled cooking pot - the enamel isn't worn off but the bottom is black and I haven't been able to get it clean.

3) Food processor

4) Crock Pot

5) Stand mixer

6) Outdoor grill - I will likely just clean...just making sure I'm not overlooking anything here.

 

Anything rubber, plastic or wood, anything scratched or grooved, I'm going to or have replaced.  Am I missing anything?

I wouldn't use the things you can't get clean- the cast iron and the cooking pot.  The rest should be fine as long as you clean them well.

If the pot has burnt on food and you can not remove it without taking off th enamel, I would not use it. Ask for a new one for your birthday or get a Lodge enamel pot. I found mine discounted and have been happy with it and the price. It performs as well my my neighbor's LeCruset. If you have a self -cleaning oven, you can put the cast iron pan through a cycle. The temperature is so high that it will burn the gluten off and then re-season the pan. I tossed my food processor. I made lots of pastry dough and ground up cookies for crusts in my plastic processor. Too many scratches in it for me to feel safe and I never used the grater attachment anyway. The crock is fine -- just clean well. Use Bon Ami to scour it. Lots of folks have successfully cleaned their stand mixers. I just got a new hand-held mixer as my kitchen is tiny! Clean your grille using oven cleaner and then bake it on high for an hour, if it is gas or put lots of charcoal and bake to burn off any gluten residue.

For your food processor just replace the plastic container, and blades. Especially if your motor is still good. You can get replacement parts on Amazon. Your cookie sheets cover with foil and use parchment paper. I use parchment paper on all my cake pans. Depending on your stand mixer you can replace the bowl, but may not need to, just put it though a sanitizing cycle in your dishwasher.

      Hi Christiana, Many thanks for your response.  Interestingly, I too cannot eat wheat in France without feeling effects (much less than in the US, but won't indulge nonetheless).  I also understand children are screened for celiac in Italy prior to starting their education. Wise idea as it seems my grandson has the beginning symptoms (several celiacs in his dad's family), but parents continue to think he's just being difficult.  Argh.  There's a test I took that diagnosed gluten sensitivity in 2014 via Entero Labs, and am planning on having done again.  Truth be told, I'm hoping it's the bromine/additives/preservatives as I miss breads and pastas terribly when home here in the states!  Be well and here's to our guts healing ❤️

      Lol that’s so true! Hope you get clarity, it’s tough when there’s doubt. There’s so much known about celiac disease with all the scientific research that’s been done so far yet practically and clinically there’s also so much unknown, still. Out of curiosity what’s her dairy consumption like? Even compared to early years to now? Has that changed? Calcium is dependent in the mechanism of antigen presenting cells in the gut. High calcium foods with gluten grains can initiate inflammation greater.  This is why breakfast cereals and milk combo long term can be a ticking time bomb for genetically susceptible celiacs (not a scientific statement by any means but my current personal opinion based on reasoning at present). Milk and wheat are the top culprits for food sensitivity. Especially in childhood. There are also patient cases of antibodies normalising in celiac children who had milk protein intolerance/ delayed type allergy. Some asymptomatic. There were a couple of cases of suspected celiacs that turned out to have milk protein intolerance that normalised antibodies on a gluten containing diet. Then there were others that only normalised antibodies once gluten and milk was eliminated. Milk kept the antibodies positive. Celiac disease is complicated to say the least.

      And thank you for your encouragement. I am glad that her body is doing a good job fighting it. I also just want clarity for her moving forwards. She was only 6 for the last round of testing and she's 10 now, so I'm also hoping that makes a difference. It was weird during her last round of testing though, because right before her biopsy, we'd upped her gluten intake by giving her biscuits made from straight up vital wheat gluten, and her labs actually normalized slightly (lower ttg and her ema went negative). Bodies just do weird things sometimes! lol

      The first negative biopsy in 2021 just said "no pathological change" for all the samples, and the second one in 2022 said "Duodenal mucosa with mild reactive change (focal foveolar metaplasia) and preserved villous architecture." So I think Marsh score 0 in both cases, though it's not actually written in the pathology reports. I'm really hoping to get a clear positive result this time, just for her sake.

      Hopefully the biopsy gives a conclusive and correct diagnosis for your daughter. Im in the UK and have been in the situation a few years ago of trying to rule celiac in or out after inconclusive results. Many symptoms pointing to it including the classic symptoms and weight loss and folate and iron deficiency. You have to play a waiting game. I also had the label of IBS and likely food allergy. Genetic test showed low risk for celiac but not no risk. It sounds like the Gastroenterologist is on it and hopefully will diagnose what it is correctly. Food hypersensitivity (allergy) can also cause similar symptoms and inflammation as well as mimicking IBS. Milk / dairy and wheat (cereal grains) being the biggest culprits. The “oesophagitis” and “gastritis” you mentioned can be caused by another gastrointestinal disorder called “eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders”. These are named depending on which part of the gastrointestinal tract is affected. For example eosinophilic oesophagitis, eosinophilic gastritis, eosinophilic gastroenteritis, and more rare eosinophilic colitis. They are antigen (allergen) driven. When the blood test measuring anti-ttg antibodies is positive in absence of a positive ema test - which is more specific to celiac, this can also suggest food hypersensitivity (allergy). Usually delayed type allergy similar to celiac but not autoimmune if that makes sense. In this case the ttg antibodies are transient. Which happens. I’ve first hand experience. For info, evidence of villous atrophy too can be caused by food hypersensitivity. Not just by celiac disease. In Egid disorders the six food elimination diet, under a dietitian and gastroenterologist care, is the dietary protocol to figure out the culprit or culprits. Sometimes only two food elimination diet is used at first. The number one culprit is milk protein / dairy. Followed by wheat, eggs, soy, fish and seafood, and nuts. Most are only reactive to one food group or two. Most are only reactive to milk. Hope this is a helpful reply.
