My favorite stir fry (because it's so easy) is using sesame oil, soysauce, chicken broth, fresh garlic and fresh ginger.

I start by sauteying the garlic and ginger in the sesame oil until soft, then add you meat (chicken works best), cook until white throughout and set the meat aside. Add some chicken broth...bring to a simmer and add any veggies you want. When cooked yet still crispy, add chicken and a couple splashes of soysauce. Heat through. At the end, mix 1 teaspoon of cornstarch to a 1/3 cup of cold water and slowly wisk into the liquid. It's ready when thickened.

Serve over rice.

Hey Lister--great to hear you had a nice birthday! I can't wait to see your new kittens--I love orange tabbies! I've never had one, but I think they're beautiful. I always regretted not getting on of my cat's brothers or sisters when we got him. That's a good idea. Here is Carriefaith's recipe thread--she has lots of stir-fry ideas--

I posted a number of stir fry recipes in my "as promised, a few recipes" post. I know there are a number of other stir-fry recipes in that recipes section as well.

Swanson chicken broth is safe, and San-J Wheat Free Soy Sauce. San-J makes several varieties so make sure to get the Wheat Free one.

So far I've only used the San-J wheat free soy sauce, but I'm reasonably sure that La Choy soy sauce is also gluten free. In any case, it is a con-agra brand and they always list gluten.

Enjoy your wok! AND your KITTY :)

what brands of sesamie oil?

seasame oil should be okay as long as its just pure oil.

The great thing about stir frys is you don't really need a recipe. If you like all the ingredients that you are throwing in the wok it's hard to mess it up.

You should be able to email yourself the pics to your email address. Then they'll be on your computer.

Everyone else seems to have answered the rest of your questios. Glad you got your kitty and had a nice birthday. Someone left a kitty on our doorstep. Don't know why people assume you want another pet if you have kids, but it's an outside cat and we feed it. It's still a baby and seems to already know all the neighbors.

Make sure if you get Swanson chicken broth that you DO NOT get the organic one. It's NOT gluten free. The regular chicken broth is gluten free.

LOL PURE OILS ARE SAFE. Sorry I was just joking with the caps lock, but you really don't have to worry about those.

monosodium glutamate is msg. Here's a good list of ingredient explanations I just found. It's pretty straight forward:

Here's what it says about autolyzed yeast:

Yeast

All brand-name packaged yeasts sold in the US are gluten free. Autolyzed yeast in a food product is generally considered gluten free. Brewers yeast, when it's a by-product of beer, is not considered gluten free. Brewers yeast nutritional supplements, however, can be made from either brewer’s yeast or sugar. If made from sugar, they are gluten free.

I see autolyzed yeast in quite a few packaged gluten-free products.

:) Hi Lister --HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY :) You can also find a lot of great recipes on the different cooking sites like Recipezaar and Allrecipes.com. There are a lot of them. There's a thread in the recipes/cooking section where everyone listed their favorite cooking sites. Stir fry is easy to adapt to gluten free cooking. Let us know how it works out for you. Also, I use canola oil for stir fry and it works out good. Congratulations on the kitties too. I have had 4 tabby cats in my life at different times and they were all smart and very very ornery. :)

Happy Birthday Lister!

Is your wok the bare iron kind or the non stick kind? If the former, it will work much better if you season it: coat it with oil & bake in a hot oven for an hour or so. It creates a non-stick surface that makes cooking much easier.

Another wok trick: Heat the wok before you put in the oil, rather that putting the oil in first. This too will keep food from sticking. I use peanut oil because it can take really high heat without smoking, but some folks are allergic to it I know.

Wok on!

Yep - always heat your pans before adding oil. And choose the right oil for the heat of cooking involved.

i try to cook on low heat for now, for some reason my kitti has really hyper sensative hearing and oil poping drives him crazy, i cooked on low last night with olive oil turned out great well atleast the chicken did, i did not eat the veggies because my roommate put his fork into the wok and he was using it to eat breaded goodies, so i refuesed to eat my veggies instead i just added some lettice and put the chicken into a corn tortia, but it was still really nice and tender chicken- anyone know if olive oil upsets the stomic though? my stomic today has been awful and the only thing i can think is maybe just plain to much oil.

Did your roomate sneak any other bites when you weren't looking? Were his goodies anywhere near your food? Crumbs? Does the cat food have gluten in it?

I found that gluten-free, fried foods didn't agree with me, but that was like, deep fried foods. Stir fry never bothers me, unless I have too much rice.

I would suspect something other than the oil...

Oh, and when stir-frying it's essential to have higher heat. A high medium should work nicely.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
