Riscotto? (sp?)

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.

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

      High TTG-IgG and Normal TTG-IgA

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease...

The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
