I Just Had The Best Sandwich Ever!

I know I have mentioned this bread before, but I really think it's worth mentioning again.

I just had a pastrami sandwich on mock rye bread and it was the most incredible sandwich ever!! I didn't even have to toast the bread. I got the bread at the Gluten Free Bread Basket in Chester, NY (I know they definately ship).

You seriously won't be able to believe you are eating gluten free bread. I'm not sure if I can possibly describe how good this bread is. I also tried their country sandwich bread... equally as good.

My dad actually went there today and got me a ton of stuff (the breads, muffins, cake, croutons and hot dog buns). I'll report back as I try things.

I just got my shipment today from the gluten-free Bread Basket!! Last time I got the Country Sandwich (White) and this time I got the Mock Rye, Cinnamon Raision and the white.

They are EXCELLENT!!

They taste like real bread - even more so if toasted.

The Rye even SMELLS like rye bread (I think the smell we associate with Rye is the Caraway Seeds and this bread has Caraway in it).

The Cinnamon Raisin is yummy and smells great. They all hold together too.

GOOD STUFF.

Also good is the Ener-G stuff. Open Original Shared Link

On the site is the story of the business which is quite interesting. Makes you realize how dedicated they are. (Same for gluten-free Br. Bskt).

Wow, those look good. How much do they charge for shipping? I looked on their website and couldn't find shipping charges listed. Also, do their breads freeze well? Do you thaw them in the fridge or in the microwave?

(I'm starting to get tired of making EVERYTHING from scratch!)

Not sure about shipping cost, but I put everything in the freezer so hopefully it will freeze well.

As for thawing, I just took out a couple slices and left them on a paper towel for about 10/15 minutes until it thawed and then made my sandwich. :)

And yeah the Rye definately even smells like rye. I don't know how these women do it, but this bread is truly amazing!

Thanks!

Bread, real bread?? :D

The EnerG granola bars are wonderful, but a little too much sugar for me.

This sounds like a great topic for a thread.....Jmunchkin, ok if we hop on????

No, I just had the best sandwich ever ....

Avocado and Tomato on Jalepeno/Cheese Bread

For starters, I made some homemade jalapeno cheese bread. I just followed the recipe for cheese bread on the side of Pamela's Amazing Wheat Free Bread Mix and added the optional jalapenos. The rest was easy. Sliced bread, tomato, and jalapenos, a smidgen of mayo. Oh my gosh! That was a very divine sandwich. (Homegrown tomato is a MUST. The jalapenos were, too) Ummmmmmm!

mmmm hows the texture?.....i just had my first gluten free bun today and it was horrible!!! the testure was like sand and sawdust....it didnt taste anything like bread......and it was spoungy.......yuck......lol

crap never mind U.S. only.....

I am an EXTREMELY picky eater! I had a gluten-free bun early on in the gluten-free diet. It was AWFUL. Gagging awful.

So I was REALLY REALLY skeptical when someone on here said that the Gluten Free Breadbasket breads were really good. I had just about resigned myself to never having bread, rolls, pasta, pancakes, etc ever again in my life.

BUT, I TRIED the "Gluten Free Breadbasket" breads.. And LOW AND BEHOLD they are GOOD. REALLY good texture. I even ate the Cinnamon Raisin WITHOUT toasting!! And WITHOUT butter or jam!

Seriously, the texture is good. I don't know about the buns. Haven't tried them yet (got to get brave).

And my husband just sent for the samplers (2, one for breads only and one for snacks & breads) from Ener-G. Their pretzels are great. REALLY. Will let you know about the bread and rolls when I get them.

Thanks!! I just placed an order as well -

Two years ago, I would have called a 9 dollar shipping charge highway robbery, but with gas prices these days, it's not so bad, is it?

jkmunchkin Rising Star

Sorry, been MIA for a few days.

But the texture is great!!! I actually took a couple plain slices of the country sandwich bread with me to work this morning and ate them (GASP) PLAIN and UNTOASTED!!!!

I truly can't believe how close this is to real bread.

I'd be shocked if anyone said the didn't like it.

Oh and haven't tried the rolls yet, but I did get some of the hot dog rolls so I will let you know when I try them.

      Unfortunately, there is presently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. NCGS is thought to be much more common than celiac disease. We know that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder but the mechanism of NCGS is less clear. Both call for an elimination of gluten from the diet.

      Thanks for your reply Trents…most appreciated.  I am unfamiliar with celiac labs terminology so I wanted to know if the presence of HLA variants (DA:101, DA:105, DQB1:0301 and DQB1:0501) that the labs detected had any merit in predisposing one to be more sensitive to gluten/carbs than the general population?  Also,  I found what you said about NCGS very interesting and I appreciate you mentioning that.  I’ve worked hard to research and advocate for myself with my Hematologist and now with a new GI, since my bowel surgery and to maintain my Vitamin B12 health concurrent with keeping my levels of Iron in the optimal range. I’ve been tested for SIBO (do not have it), biopsy showed negative for HPylori, and have had Fecal studies done (nothing showed up) and I understand how a loss of a large amount of bowel could be highly impacting re: SIBO, malabsorption and motility issues. So I’ve managed pretty well diet and elimination-wise until just recently. That said, this new problem with extreme bloating, distention and upper girth, NAFLD just occured over the last 4 months so it is new for me and I thought celiac might be a possible issue. I’ll probably just continue on in this less gluten/carbs seem to be better for me and see how reintroducing certain foods go.  Thanks again.

      Thanks bumped it up and now take all 3 vitamins 2 capsules each with the super b complex at breakfast. I will give it some time to see if I notice a difference. I am going to track my eating daily diary on a myfitness pal app to see if the "claimed" gluten free foods bother me or not.

      Please can anyone help. I was diagnosed on 23rd December and I am trying my best to get my head around all the things to look out for. I have read that yeast extract is not to be eaten by coeliacs. Why? And is this all yeast extract. Or is this information wrong. Thanks.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Seabeemee! The fact that the genetic testing shows you do not have either of the two genes associated with the potential to develop celiac disease (HlA DQ2 and HLA DQ8) pretty much ensures that you do not have celiac disease and the biopsy of the small bowel showing "normal villous architecture" confirms this. But you could have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which would not damage the villous architecture. You could also have SIBO (Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth) or H. Pylori infection. Both of these conditions would thrive on carbs and you do say you feel better when you don't eat a lot of carbs. And with your resection of the small bowel, that could be causing it's own problems like you describe. When was that surgery done? You have had over 1 foot of your small bowel removed by that surgery in 2022 so that would certainly challenge digestion and nutrient absorption.  Edited
