I found this recipe on the Delphi forum a while back....haven't tried it but it sounds REALLY good. The gal who posted is French-Canadian, and all of the recipes I checked sounded great, actually. Try this link:

Gladly my dear. Normally such information would cost you a kiss, but since I have learned so much on ths forum, I am in debt to it and must off the information up for free.

Truthfully, I found out about them in this thread. Open Original Shared Link

They are from S'Better farms, which I think is a sort of silly name, but the product is excellent, AND damned expencive. I'm thinking about working up a recipe for corndogs on my own. The price for a box of their chicken nuggets and a box of their corn dogs was 18 dollars. :o:o:o

A personal recipe for these things is going to be a must though, since I love chicken nuggets and corndogs, and this price isn't something I can handle long term. Both were absolutely scrumptious however.

Here is the web page to s'better farms. Open Original Shared Link

Their boxes are kind of plain. (They use boxes, not baggys.)

They have a list of local distributers on their page, and I got them at my local kroger, but be warned, the address for that kroger listed on their web page was off by one number, so if you map to them, I highly recommend checking the address with whatever store you are looking at. It's also worth noting that S'Better farms are super extra kosher, and as such their products were in the jewish freezer section, and NOT the normal freezer, or the healthfood freezer sections. I needed help to find them. No objection to kosher, but I feel mildly slighted that they weren't in the health food section with all the other gluten free stuff.

I also highly recommend their chicken nuggets. Gracious they were good. Maybe I should go cook some more... No, must control self....

Now, I should mention I did NOT use an oven to cook their products, but did in fact boil them in canola oil. (I have a deep frying machine. I figure I shouldn't miss out, and I bought a fry daddy. I highly recommend those as well.) They list microwave, oven, and frying machine cooking directions, so I think this is intended.

Well, corndogs won't get you a kiss, but a beignet....a GOOD beignet definitely might.... :)

Oh, you are young and your brain didn't get fried from Celiac, did it....I don't read complicated books any more, was relegated to celebrity gossip magazines and the newspaper in the last few years....will pick up books again, hopefully, when I can remember plotlines... :unsure:

I have a gluten free home in Louisiana and my daughter requested beignets. She was thrilled with them but I am going to continue to tweak my approach. The way I did it was to add a little extra sugar to my favorite and best performing biscuit dough. Then I deep fried them in a fry-daddy and dusted them with powdered sugar. They were very tasty and similar to 'real' beignets, though they didn't puff up as much as the ones you can get at the cafes.

Around here, non-Celiacs make beignets at home by cutting up canned biscuit dough, but there are other traditional beignet recipes that include yeast and my next experiment will be with a yeast dough to see if I can get extra puff.

      Marsh 3b is the Gold Standard of diagnosis for Celiac Disease.  Until recently, regardless of antibody tests, positive or negative, you had to have Marsh 3 damage to be awarded the diagnosis of Celiac. As I understand you,  you were having constant symptoms..  Your symptoms improved on GFD, with occassional flare ups. Did your doctor say you do and you are questioning the diagnosis? Regarding your increasing severity when you get glutened it is "normal.  Gluten acts on the Opiod receptors to numb your body.  Some report withdrawal symptoms on GFD.  I was an alcoholic for 30 years, about 1/2 pint of voda a day. Each time I identified a trigger and dealt with it, a new trigger would pop up.  Even a 30 day rehab stint, with a low fat diet (severe pancreatis) during which I rarely had cravings.  Stopped at a Wendys on the way home and the next day I was drinking again.  20 years later, sick as a dog, bedridden on Thanksgiving, after months of reasearch, I realized that gluten free was my Hail Mary.  Back in 1976 my son was diagnosed at weaning with Celiac Disease and his doctor suggested my wife and I should also be gluten free because it is genetic.  At 25 years old I felt no gastro problems and promised if I ever did I would try gluten free.  Well, I forgot that promise until I was 63.  Three days of gluten and alcohol free, I could no longer tolerate alcohol. Eleven years gluten and alcohol free, with no regrets. Improvement was quick, but always two steps forward and one back.  Over time I found nineteen symptoms that I had been living with for my entire life, that doctors had said, "We don't know why, but that is normal for some people". Celiac Disease causes multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  It is an autoimmune disease, meaning your immune system B and T cells create antibodies against ttg(2) the small intestin in Celiac Disease and sometimes ttg(3) in skin in Dermatitis Herpetiformus.  Why is poorly understood.  In fact, it wasn't even know that wheat, barley and rye gluten was the cause.  Celiac Disease was also called Infantilism, because it was deadly, and believed to only be a childhood disease. So as part of your symptoms you must deal with those deficiencies.  Especially vitamin D because it contols your immune system.  Virtually all newly diagnosed Celiacs have vitamin D deficiency.  There are about 30 vitamin and minerals that are absorbed in the small intestine.  With Marsh 3 damage you may be eating the amount everyone else does, but you are not absorbing them into your system, so you will display symptoms of their deficiency.   As time passes and you replenish your deficiencies you may notice other symptoms improve, some you did not even know were sypmptos. Our western diet has many deficiencies build into it.   That is the reason foods with gluten are fortified.  Gluten free processed food are not required to fortify.  Vitamin D, Iodine, choline.  The B vitamins, especially Thiamine (B1) run deficient quickly.  We only store enough thiamine for 2 weeks for symptoms can come on quickly.  Magnesium, zinc, etc. each having its own symptoms affecting multiple systems.  High homocystene, and indicator of vascular inflamation can be cause by deficient Choline, folate, B6 and or B12.  Brain fog, deficient choline, iodine, thiamine. Dietary intake of choline and phosphatidylcholine and risk of type 2 diabetes in men: The Kuopio Ischaemic Heart Disease Risk Factor Study

      I cut out the rice because it was affecting my stomach at the time ... not necessarily dermatitis herpetiformis. It was Tilda Basmati Rice, sometimes wholegrain rice. I was willing to do whatever it took to heal. Too much fiber also disagrees with me as I have UC.

      But you didn't answer my question. When you consume gluten, is there an identifiable reaction within a short period of time, say a few hours?

      You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not very common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/

      I am only wondering why you would need to cut out rice? I've never heard of rice being any issue in those with DH.
