We are having some people come for the weekend tomarrow, and originally I had thought we would serve something relativly easy like a stew or maybe something from the grill. My hubby however had different plans! :rolleyes: He is really proud of this Chinese dinner that we make. It is really good, and for a theme party its great.....but it's labor intensive and the kitchen ends up with batter from one end to the other. I know he really wants to do this, but I'd like to do "pre-cooking" as much as possible. Ok...so here it is...we usually make eggrolls, crab rangoon, and sweet and sour pork. For the eggrolls and crab rangoon we wrap the filling in rice paper (that is softened with egg), dip them in batter, and then deep fry. Do you guys think I could make up the eggrolls and crab rangoon tonight, and then dip them in the batter and deep fry tomarrow? Or do you think it would affect the texture? If so would you freeze them or refridgerate? I don't know if the egg will get icky ...or if they will get soggy.... :unsure:

Well, I think I'd pre-make them, refrigerate them and batter and fry them tomorrow. But don't sue me if that was bad advice! :blink:

I wish I could help--I've never used the rice paper, so I don't know how it would hold up in the fridge all night.

My guess is that it would work fine--I always do as much cooking as I can ahead of time.

Good luck with it all :)

Based on my experience, I'd make the fillings, but do NOT roll until you're ready to batter and fry.

ok I think I'll do that then! The main thing that worries me is that the will be soggy, but I don't think they will be since I'm battering and frying them tomarrow. Maybe I'll try one out in the morning so if they are bad I'll still have time to come up with plan B :D

tarnelberry,

I didn't see your reply.....what happened with you previous experience?

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
