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.

      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 Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      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 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.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?
    • jenniber
      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.
