Help! Wrong Info In A Gluten Free Cook Book


kaciemarie

Recommended Posts

I recently received a gluten free cook book as a gift. The whole front section is dedicated to celiac disease and it lists all the food you can and can't have. However, there are 3 recipes that call for CousCous (made from Semolina- made from duram wheat) and 1 recipe that calls for Orzo (also a wheat pasta) and 1 recipe that calls for egg noodles (I dont know about you, but I have never seen an egg noodle that is gluten free). I have been gluten-free for about a year now, so I know that these are mistakes. However, I am worried that someone who is new to Celiac wouldn't know and eat these recipes. Should I call the publisher and let them know...what does everyone think?

I would definitely contact the publisher if you feel this is an error! (Which it most certainly appears to be)... is there maybe a recipe in the book to make gluten-free versions of these pasta's or a suggestion on where to buy gluten-free versions of them??? Otherwise, yeah, blatant error and they need to be made aware of it.

What is the name of the cookbook?

kaciemarie Contributor

They make no reference to Gluten Free CousCous, Egg Noodles, etc. and there are no recipes either. The name of the cook book is "Healthy Cooking - Gluten Free Cookbook" by Paul Morgan.

I tried searching for this book and could find very little information about it... amazon .com doesn't carry it...

Definitely contact the publisher about the errors.

      I'd like to clarify: Is the pain you describe in the area just below your chest constant, or does it only appear when you start moving?

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
