Gluten Free French Bread

I am hosting a wine and cheese tasting for our dinner club next month and want to keep our house gluten free, so I am telling everyone to bring a bottle of wine and a cheese to go with it, and I will provide all the crackers, etc. I have some Glutino crackers that are decent, and really like the Blue Diamond Nut thins, so I plan on having an assortment of those, along with some fruit and chocolates, but I know someone will want french bread to go with the soft cheeses. Does anyone know of a good french bread (mix or frozen, etc.) that I can order or buy in the stores? I haven't seen any in our Whole Foods, but we have a lot of health food stores around here so if someone could recommend a good mix I'm sure I could find it (or order online). I have only been gluten-free for 6 months so haven't attempted to make gluten-free bread yet, so I need something that isn't too difficult and that will taste good untoasted (since it will be sitting out all night). Oh yeah, and i don't want people to know it's gluten-free (just don't want to go into all that with 30-45 people!).

Also, if anyone has any other cracker suggestions or chocolate suggestions, I'm all ears (we have a pretty good whole foods that just opened up by us).

that's good to hear - they sell that at my local health food store, so I think I'll buy it this weekend and maybe test it out for Thanksgiving, so I can work out any kinks in my gluten-free baking skills before December :)

That's a good idea :) See if you like it--it's very easy to make. I mix everything up in my KitchenAid, and bake it in a loaf pan in the oven. Smells good, too

I just bought a Kitchenaid - broke down and got it b/c they were on sale. Can't wait to use it! So you just put yours in a regular loaf pan? I didn't know if that would "scrunch" it up too much - I don't have any fancy french bread pans or anything like that :)

Everybody Eats has the most incredible gluten-free french bread. I would dare anyone to know that it is gluten free.

It's a bit pricey but I splurge on it every so often. If you are hosting a party I think that is definately the time to splurge.

We have tried almost all of Mona's products including the french bread and they are great.

I recommend The Gluten Free Pantry's French Bread mix too, also, if you can find Mary's Gone Crackers, those are AWESOME crackers to put out at a party, I shared them at church one day and they were GONE in minutes!

Another good "cracker " is shredded parmesian cheese on a silpat in little fairly thin mounds - bake them at 400 for about 10 min or until they look browned on the edges. Take them out cool and they taste great. :)

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      By catnapt · Posted

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
