Got a quick question...

I tried a rice dish (riscotto?)...anyway, it was made by Lund..something or other. It was the creamy garlic I think and I topped with parmassean cheese...with these vague details does anyone happen to know if it is gluten-free? My hubby took out the trash before I could get up here with the box for details. :rolleyes: I don't even know the full name of the company to google it. Does anyone know what I'm talking about??? It tasted great, and I hope I didn't just accidently gluten myself. Thanks to anyone who can clue-me-in! -Julie

Julie, anything 'creamy' is suspect. It's risotto, by the way. I have no idea if it was gluten-free or not, and I'm afraid you'll have to just wait and see. For your sake, I hope it was gluten-free!

I googled it -- it's Lundberg.

Here are the ingredients, looks like you got lucky, but no more taking chances, okay? They used rice flour as a thickener ... I mean, who uses rice flour??? Looks like a lucky break to me!!

Ingredients:

Nutra-farmed California arborio rice, Parmesan and cheddar cheese blend, salt, natural flavors, buttermilk powder, onion and garlic powder, cane juice powder, butter powder, whey powder, rice flour, dehydrated parsley, autolyzed yeast extract, black pepper, turmeric, expeller pressed safflower oil (less than 2%; added as a processing aid).

Edit -- that is the Creamy parmesan one

Do know that risotto homemade is easy and can easily be made gluten-free! As a chef...you use only onion, olive oil, arborio (or other specified risotto rice), chicken stock (gluten free of course) and butter and parmesean cheese. If you want to flavor it - you can add any sorts of veggies (I love it with pureed butternut squash or peas) or even ham, shellfish - whatever you can tolerate. The type of rice used forms a "creamy" sauce through its starch that makes it the ultimate comfort food - so if you are ambitious (it can take a little time to prepare), its worth it!

Thanks everyone! I had the box of risotto on my "gluten-free" shelf in my pantry. I only put things on that shelf that I know (or have found discussed on this forum) to be gluten-free. What had me concerned was that I saw "natural flavors" today... I've had the box for awhile. I've never even heard of risotto before (obviously forgot I bought it)...so I assumed that I must have wanted to try it because it was discussed as yummy and gluten-free on our forum. I appreciate the feedback! -Julie :)

P.S. It was very yummy actually! ;)

Thanks for your suggestions! I was wondering today what I could add to it! B)

All the Lundberg stuff that's gluten-free says so right on the box. The creamy parmesan is just fine. I eat thier boxes rices all the time. It has replaced Rice-A Roni in my life. Yum.

Just a suggestion: for the sake of your own health, from now on ask before eating rather than afterwards, when it may be too late.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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/
