Jules -

I've used Bette Hagman's pasta recipe (I think it's from her original Gluten Free Gourmet book). gfp is right in saying that it's tricky to work with - but if you are willing to experiment a little and keep trying, you can get it to turn out. My good friend used to make it all the time (gluten free), but now she's got 5 kids, and making pasta is too time consuming (especially since there are a lot more gluten-free pastas available now).

What I've always wondered is: would it be possible to make gluten-free pretzels with one of those pasta makers? That's what I really want to be able to make! (They're so darn expensive!!!)

Thanks for the replies, I figure I have this thing I may as well use it. Besides I'm having issues with paying 4 bucks for a bag of half way decent gluten-free pasta, thats highway robbery!!!! :blink:

I've been buying it at this pGlace called lifesource, its the only decent place to buy gluten-free things in this town. There is a Trader Joes about 45-60 minutes away, I keep meaning to check it out I'm just always so busy! :rolleyes:

Hi there!!

I make myself frsh pasta from scratch almost everyday. In Italy we have a very good gluten-free flour mix (Dr Schaer) which is based on corn flour and corn starch. As regards to how to make the dough and how to cut your pasta you might find interesting to check Open Original Shared Link where I describe all the procedure.

Buon appetito!!

OMG ... we are not worthy (everyone repeat)

I talked to a few gluten-free chefs in Italy recently and one of them told me the secret with the thin pizza bases was simply the shaer gluten-free flour, salt and water ONLY..... no yeast or anything else.

Interestingly shaer is owned by Heinz.... as I discovered having a gluten-free beer with my gluten-free pizza...

I tried some Bette Hagman noodles once and they came out fine texture-wise (by hand, not by pasta machine), but smelled very eggy. I find gnocchi easy to put together although a little time-consuming: start with a pound of ricotta or a bunch of mashed potatoes in a bowl. Add an egg or two, some parmesan cheese, and enough gluten-free flour (I use Bette's basic mix) that you can handle the resulting dough without cursing. Roll small pieces (egg-size is easiest) into ropes about 1/2" thick on a gluten-free-floured board and cut into pieces 1" or less. Pick up each piece and press gently onto the back of a fork that you hold tines down, curving outward - this puts grooves on one side and your finger dent on the other to hold sauce. This sounds very tedious, but put some music on and groove while you do it. Separate the pieces on wax paper, and either freeze and then bag for later (don't try to bag first and then freeze or you will have one massive gnoccho) or drop into boiling water and cook until they float. Don't cook much after they float or they will start to dissolve. I hear you can add spinach, squeezed dry, or garlic or parsley or whatever makes your mouth happy.

      Celiac friendly probiotics

      In response to your questions regarding probiotics. I have had Celiac for 40 years. Stomach issues: digestion, IBS to chronic constipation, bloat after eating anything. I was unable to eat a healthy variety of foods, tried probiotics supplements - some made me worse, others made no difference. After reading about people with Crones, IBS, etc, who made...

      Hi Katht - I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was...

      Advice while waiting for testing

      Hello, I'm relatively new to this, so I'm hoping to get some advice. I went gluten-free for most of April and felt the best I've ever felt. I’ve been experiencing strange symptoms since last August, but they all disappeared when I eliminated gluten. However, to get accurate blood test results, I’m back on gluten for a month (all of May), and I’m hon...

      Celiac friendly probiotics

      By Florence Lillian · Posted

      In response to your questions regarding probiotics.  I have had Celiac for 40 years.  Stomach issues: digestion, IBS to chronic constipation, bloat after eating anything.  I was unable to eat a healthy variety of foods, tried probiotics supplements - some made me worse, others made no difference.  After reading about people with Crones, IBS, etc, who made their own probiotics I started making Milk Kefir: not water Kefir. There are 10 probiotics in milk KEFIR. After 3 weeks I was able to eat more, no gas, no IBS.  If you have a computer just ask for videos on making milk Kefir. I branched out and make my own Kombucha for even more probiotics. I do not make my yogurt because there are only about four probiotics in that. I started this when I was 82 and I still make my own Kefir and Kombucha. My stomach issues were fixed with the Milk Kefir alone. If you decide to try making it, make certain you order MILK GRAINS. The finished product tastes a bit like Buttermilk. I hope this helps in your journey to good health.

      Hi Katht -  I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal  function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was very true for me. I am still elimination foods from my diet. One person suggested you keep a food diary and that is a good idea but it is probably best just to do an elimination diet. There are several ne and maybe one for celiacs. I used one for a while and started with plain rice and zucchini and then added back other foods to see if I reacted or not. That helped a great deal but what I did not realise that it would only very small amounts of some foods to cause inflammation in my intestine. Within the last few years I have stopped eating any trace amounts of hot peppers, corn and soy(mostly in supplements) and nuts, (the corn in Tylenol was giving me stomach aches and the nuts were causing foot pains). Starting an elimination diet with white rice is better than brown rice that has some natural toxins. In addition it is very important to drink sufficient plain water. You can find out how much to drink for your height and weight online. I do have difficulty drinking 48 ounces of water but just recently have found an electrolyte supplement that helps me stay well hydrated, Adding the water and electrolytes may reduce muscle cramps and gag spams you wrote about. . Also buy some anti-gluten enzyme capsules to take with meals. I use GliadinX advertised here. These are a lot of things to do at one time as they reflect my 20 years of experience. I hope you do what you can manage to do over time. Good luck and take care.

I’ve been experiencing strange symptoms since last August, but they all disappeared when I eliminated gluten. However, to get accurate blood test results, I’m back on gluten for a month (all of May), and I’m honestly feeling miserable. I’ve been dealing with joint pain, bloating, diarrhea, and just overall discomfort. Does anyone have tips on how to manage these symptoms during this month? What has helped you with joint pain?
