Nonfat Milk Powder

Does anyone know of any non fat dry milk powder that is certified gluten free?  Organic Valley used to make one but they stopped.  America's Test Kitchen cook books have this as an ingredient in their main flour mixture, and recommend the use of Organic Valley for the product to buy.  When I asked them for a replacement they said they can only recommend a nationally available brand, which doesn't help since the only brand they recommend isn't sold anymore. 

Thanks,

You can always just sub regular milk for the powdered and liquid.  Powdered milk is nice if you are using a bread maker and setting up the night before or storing a dry mix to save time.

 It is nice to have powdered milk on hand for earthquakes.  I had to drink it as a kid.  It was cheap and when money was tight or we were snowed in, my Mom had it in her pantry.  I recall her  crawling, yes crawling, to the corner store for fresh milk after an ice storm in Chicago while my brother and I were made to stand in the parlor window so that she could see us.  After that, she always kept powdered milk in the house.  ?

Carnation is "Instant" and they specifically say not to use Instant.  (It is marked Gluten free and would be great if "Instant" was ok)

The Walmart brand Great Value says that it may contain trace amounts of wheat on it's labeling, thus ruling it out for us.

We use the ATK cookbook and use the Carnation brand of instant  milk for the flour mixes...always have great results.

I don't get it.  Isn't all powdered milk "instant"  vs. fresh or canned?

That is good to know.  I will try it.  When I asked ATK they said not to do it, but then again they haven't given me any alternatives either.  Thanks

Ditto for me!!!! In fact, I'm looking at my ATK Cookbook Vol. 1, pg. 13 right now. In the top right column there it is titled "Using milk powder" and it doesn't say a word about not using anything called "instant" milk powder. I think you must have gotten some newbie at ATK who didn't know what they were talking about. I've never in my life seen a milk powder that wasn't instant. All of them, you just add water & stir to make milk.

Interesting. We don't have any at the moment and don't use it very much except for the bread my husband occasionally makes (gluten bread that I don't eat anyways.) I'll check out the package itself next time we buy it. Why would they put gluten in milk I wonder?

In some brands they use barley malt in it, malted milk is very common in powdered form and used in some recipes. -_- I found powdered coconut milk recently and found it works good in some interesting ways in cooking. Very handy if you only need a few tbsp of the full fat stuff and not a whole can, you just adjust up the liquids proportionately.

Butthat is not the product they are talking about.  Malted milk is called " malted Milk".  It isn't trying to disguise itself as regular powdered milk.

First off your typo was misread as "ButtHat"....second I should have elaborated on what I was saying and where I was going with that thought. If the company makes both malted milk, as in milk with barley malt, and instant plain powdered milk in the same facility could it be called gluten free? What if they use the same production or packaging lines on rotation?  I think this is where the scare might be. NOW there are companies that do just plain powdered milk I am sure. And I am sure the ones they do use a shared facility like I mentioned would say so.

It is " but that" and I missed the space....

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @sleuth, Has your son been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  All of those symptoms can be caused by malnutrition.  I had severe malnutrition that went unrecognized by my doctors.  Intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, and gastrointestinal distress are symptoms of deficiencies in the eight essential B vitamins, especially Thiamine B1, which becomes low first because the demand is higher when we're sick.     Celiac Disease causes inflammation and damage of the intestinal lining which inhibits absorption of essential nutrients.  Checking for nutritional deficiencies is part of proper follow up care for people with celiac disease.   Is your son taking any vitamin supplements?  Most supplements contain thiamine mononitrate which in not readily absorbed and utilized by the body.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that is shown to promote intestinal healing.  Benfotiamine is available over the counter.  Benfotiamine is safe and nontoxic.   Is your son eating processed gluten-free foods?  Gluten-free processed foods are not required to be enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.   Is your son following a low histamine diet?  Histamine is released as part of the immune response to gluten and other foods high in histamine.  High levels of histamine in the brain can cause anxiety, insomnia, and depression.  The body needs the B vitamins to make the enzyme Diamine Oxidase (DAO) to break down and clear histamine.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Vitamin C helps clear histamine as well.  Some people find over the counter antihistamines helpful as well, but they're not for long term use.   Nicotine has antihistamine-like properties, but can also irritate the gut.  Tobacco, from which nicotine is derived, is a nightshade (like tomatoes, potatoes, peppers and eggplant).  Nightshades contain alkaloids which affect gastrointestinal permeability, causing leaky gut syndrome.  Nicotine can cause gastrointestinal irritation and alter for the worse the microbiome. Safer alternatives to Nicotine that have antihistamine properties include Lemon Balm (Sweet Melissa),  Passion Flower, Chamomile, and Bilberry.  They can be taken as supplements, extracts, or tea.  These will help with the anxiety, insomnia and depression in a much safer way. Oolong tea is also helpful.  Oolong tea contains the amino acid L-Theanine which helps the digestive tract heal.  (L -Theanine supplements are available over the counter, if not a tea drinker.)  Tryptophan, a form of Niacin B3, also helps calm digestive symptoms.  Another amino acid, L-Lysine, can help with anxiety and depression.  I've used these for years without problems.   What ways to cope have you tried in the past?

      In general if it is labelled gluten-free then it should be ok for most celiacs, however, those who are super sensitive (which is most who have dermatitis herpetiformis) may want to eat only certified gluten-free items, which are supposed to test down to 10ppm (but don't always!).

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      Have faith, you will survive. I get mine from Pipingrock.com.  500 capsules of 10,000 IU for $22.  That is almost two years worth for me.  250 caps 5000 IU for $6.69 if you only take 5,000 a day.  It's like half the price of Walmart.

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.
