Seeking A Bread Recipe


felineaids

Recommended Posts

I posted this before but nobody understood my headline, so I'm trying again. I have many food allergies, and I'm struggling to find a bread recipe I can work with.

I want to come up with a recipe for sandwich bread. However, the ones I've found thus far all contain things I'm allergic to. My allergies are extensive, so I'm including a list of ingredients I know I can work with.

millet or rice flour

baking soda

vitamin C

salt

honey or agave nectar

olive or safflower oil

This is technologically possible, but I need some help coming up with a viable recipe. If anyone can offer opinions or assistance I'll appreciate it.

How difficult for you! I'm so sorry you have such a rough time of it.

When my intestinal issues began and it became evident I had suddenly developed food intolerances, like probably everyone here, I began surfing the net for information, ideas and suggestions. I came across one website devoted to providing special foods and rotation diets for those with severe and extensive food allergies. I was impressed by the amount of effort that had to be made by such individuals to eat just to stay alive, and bookmarked the site in case others needed it.

While the site does not contain recipes, it does provide unusual food products and diets for those who are allergic to everything. The owner of the company is a scientist who developed the products when trying to deal with her own 3 children with severe food allergies. It may not be what you are looking for, but maybe it is something you can use.

Thought I would also let you know that this company, Special foods, sells a number of unusual flours and includes recipes with the flours. The recipes are specially forumulated to avoid most allergens. I would also think that you could contact the owner. I get the impression she would be willing and able to help.

Here is a description from them on their flours:

Special Foods!TM offers a large variety of flours to meet your every need! Our most popular flours are our special line of wonderfully exotic and unusual flours. They are superb for rotation diets; even the most allergic person can generally find something that is well tolerated among these flours. Recipes are available upon request for each of the unusual flours. Each flour is 100% pure, containing only the flour listed.

(Recipes are supplied with the flours).

ALL recipes are made without wheat or other grains, without yeast, and without milk, eggs, or sugar. Amazingly, everything is delicious!

Good luck!

      @klmgarland, My dermatitis herpetiformis didn't clear up until I became meticulous about cross contamination. I cut out gluten-free oats and all gluten-free foods, dairy and gluten-free rice. Additionally, getting the right amount of protein for my body weight helped significantly in my body's healing process ... along with supplementing with enough of all the vitamins and minerals ... especially Zinc and Magnesium. I went from 70kg to 82kg in a year. Protein with each meal 3 times daily, especially eggs at breakfast made the difference. I'm not sure whether iodine was a problem for me, but I can tolerate iodine no problem now. I'm off Dapsone and feel great. Not a sign of an itch. So there is hope. I'm not advocating for the use of Dapsone, but it can bring a huge amount of relief despite it's effect on red blood cells. The itch is so distracting and debilitating. I tried many times to get off it, it wasn't until I implemented the changes above and was consistent that I got off it. Dermatitis Herpetiformis is horrible, I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

      Thank you so very much Scott.  Just having someone understand my situation is so very helpful.  If I have one more family member ask me how my little itchy skin thing is going and can't you just take a pill and it will go away and just a little bit of gluten can't hurt you!!!! I think I will scream!!

      It is difficult to do the detective work of tracking down hidden sources of cross-contamination. The scenarios you described—the kiss, the dish towel, the toaster, the grandbaby's fingers—are all classic ways those with dermatitis herpetiformis might get glutened, and it's a brutal learning curve that the medical world rarely prepares you for. It is difficult to have to deal with such hyper-vigilance. The fact that you have made your entire home environment, from makeup to cleaners, gluten-free is a big achievement, but it's clear the external world and shared spaces remain a minefield. Considering Dapsone is a logical and often necessary step for many with DH to break the cycle of itching and allow the skin to heal while you continue your detective work; it is a powerful tool to give you back your quality of life and sleep. You are not failing; you are fighting an incredibly steep battle. For a more specific direction, connecting with a dedicated celiac support group (online or locally) can be invaluable, as members exchange the most current, real-world tips for avoiding cross-contamination that you simply won't find in a pamphlet. You have already done the hardest part by getting a correct diagnosis. Now, the community can help you navigate the rest. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      It's very frustrating to be dismissed by medical professionals, especially when you are the one living with the reality of your condition every day. Having to be your own advocate and "fight" for a doctor who will listen is an exhausting burden that no one should have to carry. While that 1998 brochure is a crucial piece of your personal history, it's infuriating that the medical system often requires more contemporary, formal documentation to take a condition seriously. It's a common and deeply unfair situation for those who were diagnosed decades ago, before current record-keeping and testing were standard. You are not alone in this struggle.

      Methylprednisolone is sometimes prescribed for significant inflammation of the stomach and intestines, particularly for conditions like Crohn's disease, certain types of severe colitis, or autoimmune-related gastrointestinal inflammation. As a corticosteroid, it works by powerfully and quickly suppressing the immune system's inflammatory response. For many people, it can be very effective at reducing inflammation and providing rapid relief from symptoms like pain, diarrhea, and bleeding, often serving as a short-term "rescue" treatment to bring a severe flare under control. However, experiences can vary, and its effectiveness depends heavily on the specific cause of the inflammation. It's also important to be aware that while it can work well, it comes with potential side effects, especially with longer-term use, so it's typically used for the shortest duration possible under close medical supervision. It's always best to discuss the potential benefits and risks specific to your situation with your gastroenterologist.
