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.

      Hello all! My life in the last five years has been crazy. I got married in 2020 at the age of 27, pregnant with our first child almost two months later, gave birth in 2021. We had another baby in April of 2023 and our last baby this March of 2025. I had some issues after my second but nothing ever made me think, "I should see a doctor about this." After having my last baby this year, my body has finally started to find its new rhythm and balance...but things started to feel out of sorts. A lot of symptoms were convoluted with postpartum symptoms, and, to top it all off, my cycle came back about 4m postpartum. I was having reoccurring migraines, nausea, joint pain, numbness in my right arm, hand and fingers, tummy problems, hives. I finally went to my PCP in August just for a wellness check and I brought up my ailments. I'm so thankful for a doctor that listens and is thorough. He ended up running a food allergy panel, an environmental respiratory panel, and a celiac panel. I found out I was allergic to wheat, allergic to about every plant and dust mites, and I did have celiac. I had an endoscopy done on October 3 and my results confirmed celiac in the early stages! I am truly blessed to have an answer to my issues. When I eat gluten, my brain feels like it's on fire and like someone is squeezing it. I can't think straight and I zone out easily. My eyes can't focus. I get a super bad migraine and nausea. I get so tired and irritable and anxious. My body hurts sometimes and my gut gets bloated, gassy, constipated, and ends with bowel movements. All this time I thought I was just having mom brain or feeling the effects of postpartum, sleep deprivation, and the like (which I probably was having and the celiac disease just ramped it up!) I have yet to see a dietician but I've already been eating and shopping gluten-free. My husband and I have been working on turning our kitchen 100% gluten-free (we didn't think this would be so expensive but he assured me that my health is worth all the money in the world). There are still a few things to replace and clean. I'm already getting tired of reading labels. I even replaced some of my personal hygiene care for myself and the kids because they were either made with oats or not labeled gluten-free. I have already started feeling better but have made some mistakes along the way or have gotten contamination thrown into the mix. It's been hard! Today I joked that I got diagnosed at the worst time of the year with all the holidays coming up. I will just need to bring my own food to have and to share. It will be okay but different after years of eating "normally". Today I ordered in person at Chipotle and was trying not to feel self-conscious as the line got long because they were following food-allergy protocols. It's all worth it to be the healthiest version of myself for me and my family. I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little overwhelmed and a little overloaded!  I am thankful for this community and I look forward to learning more from you all. I need the help, that's for sure!

      On the AIP diet, all processed foods are eliminated.  This includes gluten-free bread.  You'll be eating meats and vegetables, mostly.  Meats that are processed, like sausages, sandwich meats, bacons, chicken nuggets, etc., are eliminated as well.  Veggies should be fresh, or frozen without other ingredients like sauces or seasonings.  Nightshade vegetables (eggplant, potatoes, tomatoes, peppers) are excluded.  They contain alkaloids that promote a leaky gut and inflammation.  Dairy and eggs are also eliminated.   I know it sounds really stark, but eating this way really improved my health.  The AIP diet can be low in nutrients, and, with malabsorption, it's important to supplement vitamins and minerals.

      Thank you for responding and for prayers.  So sorry for your struggles, I will keep you in mine.  You are so young to have so many struggles, mine are mild by comparison.  I didn't have Celiac Disease (celiac disease) until I had my gallbladder removed 13 years ago; at least nothing I was aware of.  Following surgery: multiple symptoms/oddities appeared including ridges on fingernails, eczema, hair falling out in patches, dry eyes, upset stomach constantly and other weird symptoms that I don't really remember.  Gastro did tests and endoscopy and verified celiac disease. Re heart: I was born with Mitral Valve Prolapse (MVP) and an irregular heartbeat, yet heart was extremely strong.  It was difficult to pick up the irregular heartbeat on the EKG per cardiologist.  I had Covid at 77, recovered in 10 days and 2 weeks later developed long Covid. What the doctors and nurses called the "kickoff to long Covid, was A-fib.  I didn't know what was going on with my heart and had ignored early symptoms as some kind of passing aftereffect stemming from Covid.  I was right about where it came from, but wrong on it being "passing".  I have A-fib as my permanent reminder of Covid and take Flecainide every morning and night and will for the rest of my life to stabilize my heartbeat.

      When I accidentally consume gluten it compromises the well-being of my heart and arteries. Last time I had a significant exposure, about six months ago, I had AFib for about ten days. It came on every day around dinner time. After the ten days or so it went away and hasn't come back.  My cardiologist offered me a collection of pharmaceuticals at the time.  But I passed on them. 
    • klmgarland
      So I should not eat my gluten free bread?  I will try the vitamins.  Thank you all so very much for your ideas and understanding.  I'm feeling better today and have gathered back my composure! Thank you kitty kitty   I am going to look this diet up right away.  And read the paleo diet and really see if I can make this a better situation then it currently is.
