Has anyone tried the new Cuisinart Bread machine? On Amazon the description says it includes gluten free recipes .Does anyone think bread machine breads are better than those made by Hand?

Thanks, Carol

Hi Carol,

I ordered the Cuisinart Breadmaking machine within the past month; it was delivered a week ago and I told UPS to return it to sender (amazon .com). Why? . . . . #1) There are a lot of posts on this message board with homemade gluten-free bread "failing", and #2) I've always kneaded my own bread and enjoy that process. Figured if several others have already tried gluten-free, homemade bread and are having problems, that tells me perhaps I don't want to invest $100. in something that's going to be a challenge and end up not using the machine. On the positive side though, would like to hear from others who have mastered the "fine art" of gluten-free, homemade, breadmaking.

Not sure I'd consider it mastered, but I have made bread in my machine with success. It does not have a gluten-free cycle, but they seem to do okay anyway. I tried the Gluten Free Pantry mix first. The taste was fine but it was a little airy at the top. I switched to the Bob's Red Mill mix and got a more consistent loaf, which I have used a number of times. I am going to try some the recipes that have been posted here but haven't had the time yet.

I did buy a new pan and paddle for my machine since I have a split household. It is clearly marked gluten-free and my family fears the wrath of a glutened woman, so they stay clear of it!!

I'm actually hoping for mine to break so that I can get the new one with the gluten-free cycle. I'm sure, of course, mine will continue to provide faith service for many years just to annoy me!! <_<<_<

Did you have a machine before to compare the new cycle?

Yeah, I have the cuisinart. The only gluten-free loaf I've made BURNED and I took it out 8 mins early. I guess I had my loaf weight off and should have set it to light. The cuisinart makes really thick crusts. Bread turned out ok otherwise, it's not my breadmaker's fault that gluten-free bread is gross :P

      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.
