I Had Pizza Today!

I am so excited, I couldn't wait to tell everyone--I made Roben Ryberg's pizza crust, topped it with Muir Glen Tomato Sauce, Hormel Pepperonni, sliced black olives and grated Pecorino Romano cheese (sheep's milk).

I swear, I haven't had pizza in at least a year and a half, and this crust looked so easy to make I thought what the heck! I used only potato starch, so it was grain free. The whole thing went together in about 10 minutes.

The best part is, it was fantastic!! While it was baking, it smelled delicious and tasted even better. Even my husband liked it. The two of us ate the whole thing :D

I actually have that "pizza burn" on the roof of my mouth :lol: Haven't had that in a long time!

JerseyAngel,

Good for you! I have been using the personal size frozen crusts from Glutino, and they aren't bad. But I would love to try a homemade crust. Would you mind sharing the recipe that you used?

Thanks,

Tracy

Congrats on the yummy pizza! I've been trying different packaged mixes, but have yet to find one that suit's my pizza snob pallet. The other night I gave up and made apizza bagel from a Glutino Bagel. It was actually the best pizza I have had since going gluten-free! The best part was, there was no mess to clean up!

This is from "The Gluten-Free Kitchen" by Roben Ryberg--I highly recommend this book!!

PIZZA CRUST

1 packet yeast (1 tbsp.)

3/4 cup milk at room temperature (I used Vance's Dari Free)

1/2 cup potato starch

3/4 cup cornstarch (I used all potato starch)

1 tbsp. xanthan gum

1/4 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. salt

1/4 cup shortening (I used Spectrum Organic)

Preheat oven to 375. In small bowl, combine yeast and milk. Stir to dissolve yeast. Set aside.

In medium bowl, combine all dry ingredients and shortening. Mix well.

To dry ingredients, slowly add milk/yeast mixture. Mix well. Dough will look wet, thick and pasty but is quite workable if you spray your hands with non stick spray or keep your hands damp with water. This is a soft dough.

Roll or pat dough into a lightly greased baking tin or pizza pan. For a thick crust, pat out dough to 1/4 inch thickness. For a thin crust, pat out dough to 1/8 inch thickness. A 12 inch circle will produce a "hand-tossed" thickness--not too thick, not too thin.

Top as desired.

Bake 15-25 minutes, until crust is lightly browned. Use a spatula to lift up the pizza to check for light browning on the bottom of the crust the first time you make it.

(I did not need to wet or grease my hands at all--I patted the dough into a 12 inch pizza pan greased with Shortening.)

Congrats Patti! I think I will give yours a try. I have been using Carol Fensters pizza made with rice flour and tapioca flour, I make it almost everyday. I need a change! I still like hers.. but I am going to give yours a try.

Thanks!

BeckyW Contributor

Sounds wonderful! I will give this a try! Thanks for sharing! :rolleyes:

hmmmm I might just have to try that version!

I'm so happy with your description of the 'long awaited pizza'

thanks for sharing your delighted success.

love

Aargh! You're killing me with those yummy toppings! :lol:

Thanks much for the recommendation. I had completely given up on having pizza again since I figured the crust is way too delicate for gluten-free flour mixes. Plus, gluten-free cooking is such an investment that I don't make anything unless someone says it pretty good first. Cowardly of me, I know. ;)

hmmmm I might just have to try that version!

I actually thought of you--no eggs!--so it would be safe for Tim :D

Patti, I'm so excited for you, PIZZA :lol: Congrats on finding a great recipe that works with your other intolerances, and for enjoying every last bite! Did it agree with you ok?

Isn't it funny how something as simple as good pizza on this diet makes us so excited :lol:

Oh my that seems even easy enough for me to make Patti - lol! I just got some cornstarch and zanthum gum so I think all I need is the potato starch and the shortening. I'm going to have to give this a try this weekend. Thanks for sharing! So happy for you too!

I made this for lunch yesterday. It tasted ok, but I couldn't help noticing that I could feel the slipperiness of the xanthan gum on the tip of my tongue as I ate. Then last night I realized I had blisters and inflamed taste buds on the tip of my tongue! This morning they have gone down a little bit, but there are more of them now. I guess I'm going to throw away those leftovers...

      What you describe is seronegative villous atrophy (negative antibody tests but positive biopsy). It is uncommon in coeliac disease, and there are other causes, but the most common cause is coeliac disease. I would pursue this with your healthcare provider if possible. Based on clinical history, test results and possible genetic testing for susceptibility to coeliac disease it should be possible to give a diagnosis. There is a bit more here: Seronegative coeliac disease

      If you are still eating gluten you could get a celiac disease blood panel done, but I agree with @trents and the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease would be your endoscopy results. Is it possible they did do a celiac disease panel before your biopsy? This would be the normal chain of events. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Actually, it would be more correct to say that the genetic potential to develop celiac disease is passed down from parents to children. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% of the general population actually do. But it is also true that the offspring of those who do have active celiac disease are at a considerably higher risk of developing active celiac disease than those of parents who have the genes but don't develop the disease. Some recent, larger studies put the risk at near 50% for the first degree relatives of those who have active celiac disease.

      Hello everyone! Been a while since I posted. The past few moths have been the best by for recovery for myself. I have been the least bloated I have ever been, my constant throat clearing is almost gone, I have stopped almost all medication I was prevously taking (was taking vyvanse for adhd, pristiq for anxiety,fomotadine/blexten for histamine blockers and singulair). Only thing I take now is Tecta. I also no longer get any rashes after eating. Things are going very well. Most success came actually once I upped my B12 daily dose to 5,000 mcg. I do have one thing I am un able to figure out and want to see if anyone else has this issue or has experience working around it. Ever since I was born I have always had a issue getting fruits and veggies down. No matter how hard I tried, it would always result in gagging or throwing up. Always just thought I was a picky eater. Now that my stomach and system has healed enough that I can feel when something is off almost istantly, I notice that after eating most fruits (sometimes I am ok with bananas) and veggies, my stomach instantly starts burning and my heart starts to pound and I get really anxious as if my body doesnt know what to do with what just enetered it. So I am thinking now that this is what probably was going on when I was born and my body started rejecting it before which caused this weird sensory issue with it causing the gagging. Hoping someone has some exprience with this as well because I would love to be able to enjoy a nice fruit smoothie once in a while haha. Thanks everyone!

      i know i've been rather cynical and sad about being fully diagnosed in june 2025, but my boyfriend has been consistently showing me the wonderful world that is gluten free cooking and baking. in the past couple of days he's made me a gluten free rice paper-wrapped spanakopita "pastry", plus a wonderful mac and cheese bechamel-ish sauce with gluten free pasta (san remo brand if you're in australia/if you can get your hands on it wherever you are).  those meals are notably gluten free, but mainly he's been making me easy gluten free meals - chili mince with white rice and sour cream, chicken soup with homemade stock from the chicken remains, and roast chickens with rice flour gravy and roast veggies. i'm a bit too thankful and grateful lol. how lucky could i possibly be? and, of course, for those who don't have someone to cook for them, it's quite easy to learn to cook for yourself. i've been making a lot of meals for us too. honestly, cooking is pretty darn fun! knowing basic knife skills and sanitary practices are all you really need. experimenting with spices will help you get on track to creating some really flavourful and yummy dishes. coeliac is a pain, but you can use it to your advantage. healthier eating and having fun in the kitchen are major upsides. much luck to all of you! let's be healthy!
