Real Corn Bread! And Noodle Kugel!


cycler

Recommended Posts

cycler Contributor

Thanks to all of you, I finally did it! I baked a real cornbread!

I used the recipe on the back of the cornmeal bag (Indian Head) and I only changed the flour to very ground almonds (not almond flour - at $14 a bag I wasn't going to use that in case it didn't work) and I used gluten-free baking powder. I was able to use everything else the same as before and it worked!

It tastes exactly like cornbread or corn muffins are supposed to - no aftertaste like many gluten-free products - it didn't crumble and it wasn't gritty at all.

The only thing I need now is a small food processor to really grind the almonds better.

I also spoke to customer service at Mannischewitz - they've got a whole line of gluten-free products and they told me that their Passover egg noodles are gluten-free. They use potato flour in them. Normally during the year you might not be able to get them, but my supermarket still had them from a few months ago and I brought them to see if I'd be able to bake a Noodle Kugel - and I did! It tastes just like the real thing!

I'm so excited to be able to eat real food!

I am practically jumping up and down at the thought of a gluten-free noodle kugel! So exciting! I will definitely keep my eye out for them in the spring and stock up then.

You may want to try the Magic Bullet from homelandhousewares.com. I don't usually buy things off of infomercials, but this thing is absolutely wonderful! I use it almost every day. It's very multi-purpose.

I know - I was so excited too - it came out SOOOOOOO delicious - just like the real thing. All they had ws the skinny soup noodles and if it worked using them I think that it'll be even better when they sell the wide ones.

Good thing that you're in CA - I hope that I'll be the first one in the stores in NY when they stock for Passover to buy all the noodles so it'll last all year!

I did see that post - the Manishewitz Passover Potato Kugel are gluten-free also.

I hope the cashier doesn't think it's weird when I buy an entire case of egg noodles come Passover. :)

Hineini - gluten-free Honey cake? I would love the recipe!

Here are all my posted recipes including the one for Honey Cake. Don't forget to review it on RecipeZaar if you end up making it!

I think the Honey Cake is by far the best gluten-free cake I've ever made, or at least a close runner-up to the yellow layer cake (recipe for that is also listed)

I know this is an old thread, but I just wanted to say I am so excited to look for those noodles, if they still have any in stock since it is after Passover. But one noodle I have found that really tastes like egg noodles are corn noodles by Cornito, a Hungarian company. I used these noodles to make a sweet noodle kugel last month and it came out pretty yummy!

I was given a Magic Bullet as a gift. I never thought I would use it. I did try it initially to make salsa. It just made mush! It does work wonders on flax seed to grind it to a powder. I have also used it on nuts like cashews and macadamias to make nut cheese.

foodiegurl, have you tried these noodles for other things? I'm thinking homemade chicken noodle soup, buttered noodles for a side dish, a spinach-noodle casserole, etc. Do they hold up? One time I made mac and cheese with corn macaroni and it was a gloppy disaster.

The last thing I want to do is have to order a case of anything as I live alone and certainly don't need those quantities and really don't have the storage space for them. I have not checked local stores to see what is available as I am newly gluten free.

I had used them as a side of buttered noodles when I made eggplant parmesan, and other dishes and it held up perfectly. And they are much cheaper than other gluten-free pastas: Open Original Shared Link

ps - I am in no way connected to the company or the store ;)

Thanks! If I can't find any locally, I may have to break down and order some. biggrin.gif

Hineini - gluten-free Honey cake? I would love the recipe!

I have had that and made something like it before.

It's sooooo tasty. I love near eastern cooking.

The Greeks have a similar kind of yoghurt-honey cake, made with farina, but here it's adapted for almond flour.

I've made it, it's very tasty and very moist and very, very rich.

Also from Recipe Zaar (I love that site):

This takes a bit of time to do, but the result is gorgeous!!

Thanks for posting the Hineini recipe. I will have to try that one.

      Azure Standard (https://www.azurestandard.com/) is one of my gluten-free vendors. I've purchased nuts, "grains", flours, and many other products there. If you are not familiar with Azure, you have to set up an account (no cost) and get your purchases either via shipping (expensive) or "drop" (free if you buy a reasonable minimum). Search their website for a drop location in your area. Each drop location has a local volunteer(?) coordinator who coordinates with the local customers. I go to a drop 4-5 miles from my home that delivers every 2 weeks. We seem to range from 8-18 customers at a given delivery. The downside of the drop is that you have to be there when they say. They give you a few days notice of the precise time, though, and they are punctual. Their pricing relative to other vendors for various products ranges from best price to overpriced, so you have to shop and compare. Quality is mostly good but once in a while you get a dud - however they've been very responsive to giving me a credit on the few occasions when I've complained. In my opinion, they are not as transparent about gluten as they could be. Some products are labeled "gluten free" and so far I trust that. Many products are labeled "Azure Market products are re-packaged by Azure for your convenience in a facility that meets Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) standards, including an approved allergen control program." I've corresponded with them over this and they all but say this means gluten free. I've come to trust this, with a little nervousness, but I wish they would be more explicit. They also sell a lot of gluten-containing products. Frankly, I think they are overlooking a business opportunity to become a trusted source for the gluten-free community by not being more clear about gluten. Among Azure products I've purchased are "Walnuts, Baker's Pieces, Raw", "Cashews, Raw, Large White Pieces, Organic" and "Missouri Northern Pecan Grower Pecans Fancy Native, Raw, Halves". The walnuts and cashews were very good and the pecans were fabulous. For almonds, I've been buying Blue Diamond unsalted when they go on sale (mostly from Safeway). The salted ones are probably fine too but the flavored ones I avoid now that I am gluten-free. I also buy products including nuts from CostCo (cashews, shelled pistachios). Their nuts usually contain a "made in a facility that processes wheat" statement, which is scary. I've contacted customer service about various Kirkland products and they will usually give you a response <<for a specific lot>> whether it really was made in a wheat facility (sometimes yes sometimes no). For the "Kirkland Signature Fancy Whole Cashews, Unsalted, 40 oz" and "Kirkland Signature Shelled Pistachios, Roasted & Salted, 1.5 lbs", I got a "safe" answer and I ate them. I got an "unsafe" answer once for "Kirkland Signature Fancy Whole Cashews with Sea Salt, 2.5 lbs" and "Kirkland Signature Dry Roasted Macadamia Nuts, Salted, 1.5 lbs" and I don't look at these anymore. Again, these answers were given for specific lots only. They will accept an unopened return for cash if you find out you don't want it. Costco also sells "Kirkland Signature Super Extra-Large Peanuts, 2.5 lbs" that are labeled gluten free. My celiac kid eats them all the time. I pretty much only eat food that I prepare myself from scratch. My celiac symptoms are not that overt, so I can't say for certain I could identify a glutening. However, my antibody levels dropped 25 fold (into normal range) since my dx earlier this year. Hope this helps.

      Doterra literally has saved my life hands down.Nateral supplements that really are pure grade and does work organically with ones body. I had to stop all my nateral supplements to be a good puppet for medical so I can get the financial help that my body won't allow me to do more days than not these days, every day with menopause.....Not feeling well.Had to switch " medical team" because I was told I wasn't celiac though I am gluten-free since 1994! I am also positive HLA-DQ2. I think doctors down play it because on quest lab work it states " However 39% of the U.S  general population carry these HLA-DQ variants, as a consequence, the presence of HLA-DQ2 or  DQ8 or both variants is not perse diagnostic of celiac disease". Hintz the down playing of celiac disease......This needs to change because doctors seem to down playe it because when I showed the past 2nd and 3rd  doctors that I waisted my time on this year showed my that line and absolutely down played it.4th pcp this year.I live in Patterson California and would love for a few of us to go to mayors office and make this disease heard

      Back home after the scope.  Dr said as soon as he got in there it was clear signs of celiacs.  Must be a decent amount of damage.  I don’t remember the post procedure conversation as the anesthesia was still wearing off but that’s what my wife says anyway.  Still the biopsy results to come back but pretty definitive and now I get to learn to live gluten free

      There are several blogs where people test different beers using commercially available gluten testing kits. Guinness definitely tests positive for gluten. Something to be mindful of is that in some regions, foodstuffs containing less than 20 ppm gluten can be sold as 'gluten free'. However, due to the volume involved, a UK pint of beer at 19 ppm would contain more gluten than the generally accepted as safe daily limit of 10 mg. I have seen gluten-free beers testing at between "undetectable" and 5-10 ppm. I have also seen a report of a positive home test on Daura Damm, which is sold as gluten-free beer - the manufacturer did not respond to the tester's query.
