Rolling Pin

Hi, I don't know if this is the right place for this question but it seems like a good place to start.

I was given a wonderful Rolling Pin. It is wooden. It has ball barings in the handles. My question is... It was my Grandmothers. And of course she used it for making products containing gluten. Is there anyway to assure I have cleaned it enough to be rid of the risk of cross contamination?

Could you put a fabric sleeve over it? That's what I have on my rolling pin. You can get them at kitchen shops.

Just something to think about... Are there any cracks or areas that would be impossible to clean? Flour could be trapped in there and slowly leak itself out into your food. If the rolling pin is only being used for gluten-free foods, I think I would just invest in a new one. Better safe than sorry.

You know, I realized that I must replace my nice rolling pin just about 2 weeks ago today.

I had one last test and that was when I made my homemade chicken noodle soup with homemade egg noodles and yes, I got sick. Not too bad but enough that I couldn't eat any leftovers and had to resort to imodium and have vowed to replace it before I make any more. And with Thanksgiving coming up, I need it soon and I am not sure the family will want to wait even that long for another batch of soup!!!!

My old wooden rolling pin that I've had for over 30 years now lives in a hutch in my living room! I couldn't bear to part with it, as I have memories of baking things for my boys for holidays or 'just because'. So, it's there, among other things that mean something, but are not really practical (anymore :( )

I bought a new wooden one when I switched my kitchen to gluten-free. :) I think that's the safest way to go ;)

      Hi Cameo674. just read your post. Well wishes to a correct diagnosis so that you can get on track to healing and feeling better. Personally I know it’s good to have the eosinophilic disorder ruled out too, as this can show anti-ttg igA antibodies too. But usually without the anti-gliadin antibodies unless gliadin is an allergen for you. Thanks for posting the link to look up SNPs rs… numbers on another post. Was useful. Looking at your result, ”Celiac Associated HLD-DQ Typing: DQA1* Value: 05; DQA1*DQA11 Value: 05; DQB1* Value: 02; DQB1-DQB11 Value: 02; Celiac Gene Pairs Present Value: Yes; Celiac HLA Interpretation Value: These genes are permissive for celiac disease.  However, these genes can also be present in the normal population. Testing performed by SSOP.  So google failed me.  I think these results basically say I have genes, but everybody has these genes so this test was just to confirm that there is a vague possibility?  Maybe this test result explains why I do not have the horrible symptoms most individuals with celiac have?  I told the GI my assumption is that I am just gluten intolerant since I do not have the pain? So maybe this test explains why I have antibodies?” To me it reads.that you carry the high risk HLADQ2.5 haplotype.

      Hello. Do you mind saying what symptoms led the doctors to test for bacteria in your blood?

      So you you ate wheat products every single day for 50 years without a problem but then in the 90's you discovered that wheat was your problem. That's confusing to me. It seems contradictory. Did you have a problem or not?

      I spent my first 50 years eating wheat products every single day with no ill affects. Being a 6’2” Italian you can imagine what my diet was like and believe me I had an appetite that wouldn’t quit. In the 90’s once I discovered the wheat was my problem I avoided it and no longer had IBS.  I seriously doubt I have celiac but I appreciate your input and will let you know if I have a problem with wheat again. I’ve been eating things I’ve longed for for decades and have never felt better.

      I would say two things and then I'm done. Many celiacs have been misdiagnosed for years with IBS. Testing for celiac disease requires regular and significant consumption of gluten for weeks/months in order to be valid.
