I Got A Zojiruchi!

My first best gift was the memory foam bed my husband bought us for my gift. We've been sleeping better than ever!!! My in-laws bought me the Zojiruchi bread machine and this morning was my first loaf, one of Anna's breads, after 7 months of living gluten-free I've died and gone to heaven!!!! My husband thought it was the best of all the gluten-free breads we've tried so far, but he found it to be bland. I said "You're crazy! This is awesome after what I've been eating!" I'm so happy! Isquealed like a little girl when I opened it.

I know many of you have one and have used it for a long time. Are there any mixes that are bett than others? Have any of you tried the jam making option? I was so surprised to see that! Can I use the machine to make special breads like Anna's pumpkin bread??

The Gluten Free Pantry's Favorite Sandwich bread is awesome. I add onions, green peppers, black pepper, garlic powder, and cheddar cheese to it. I generally make my moist breads (ie: pumpkin, banana...) in the oven.

We love our Zojirushi! Our favorite bread mix is Pamela's amazing wheat free bread mix. Sometimes we add cinnamon and raisins to the bread mix - it's delicious! For other breads (banana, pumpkin, etc.) we use the oven. I've never tried the option for making jam. We make jams every summer and it's so easy - it's never even occurred to me to use the bread maker.

Hi Kris

I'm glad your Christmas presents were awesome... I love that machine & Anna's mixes. I make her sweet bread in the oven. they are so simple...

We are thinking of buying the new memory foam mattress, which one did you buy? There are so many now on the market..

happy bread making..

I got one too!!! I'm so excited to use it. And I promptly ordered the Anna's Bread mixes.

You only need to use the machine for her sandwich breads. The specialty breads like banana and pumpkin can be made in the oven. I made them for Thanksgiving and they were wonderful.

About 15 minutes after I made this post I became incredibly ill. I had a VERY sudden rush of nausea that was most definitely caused byt he bread. You know how you can tell what it is when you are tasting it and burping it up.... well it was the bread! I took some phenergan and spent the entire New Years in bed!! I just can't figure out why Anna's bread made me sick! Was it the vinegar? I used Heinz apple cider, NOT flavored apple cider. I also used silk, and eggs that were fine, we had eaten them at breakfast. Could it be that there was something in the machine that didn't get proerly washed when I washed it out?? I don't know, but man was that a New Years mood killer!!!

Mamaw... my husband bought the bed through memoryfoam.com it was about a third of the price of all the others. they sell them so cheap because they do not put the layers of foam together for you, they ship them seperately with a type of matress bag. You lay the bottom of the bag out then layer your foams in order and zip it all up in the bag. The pieces do not slip and slide or lose their shape in any way, in fact you would never know it wasn't fully put together! We are in heaven!!

Boy, I can't think of a thing in the bread that would make you sick. I use the same apple cider vinegar.Maybe the montina flour?I think the bean flour also bother some people but honestly this is about the only bread I use anymore. Did you eat alot of it at once? I know that sounds like a stupid question but the first time I made that bread my grandson ate about 3/4 of the loaf in a matter of three hours...

Maybe try the gluten-free pantry bread alot really like that one. I haven't tried it because I buy cases of Anna's.

I hope you get to feeling better soon.....hugs

Kris,

I had a thought. The reason I can't use Anna's breads (as well as several others) is because of the tapioca flour.

Tapioca flour causes me to have nausea--the way you describe what happened to you.

Of course, if tapioca flour hasn't bothered you in the past, I'm way off, but I thought I'd mention it, as tapioca flour is the first ingredient listed.

Sorry you got sick :(

As far as I know I've had both tapioca and bean flours many times before. I only ate one slice, but I think it could have beent hat I didn't wash the machine well enough. My husband also ate a slice and was perfectly fine, but he isn't GI like I am. The other possibility is the tummy flu, but it just didn't feel flu like. Anyway, I'm all better now!! : )

The Montina flour in Anna's mix doesn't agree with me. I love the bread, but it doesn't like me :(

I hope you can figure it out and find one that works for you! I love my Zoji and use it all the time!

I can only have a little of the prefabricated gluten-free products without getting bloated, nauseous, etc. I ate an entire gluten-free hot dog bun one time and UGH! But I read in the magazine Living Without, that since celiacs have a hard time absorbing the nutrients we eat that we should really try to eat fortified foods like gluten-free breads.

I figured it out!! I was driving myself crazy because the bread had me feeling so sick I was afraid to try it again. I used pure coconut oil instead of regular oil. The coconut oil is a strong anti-fungal that will make anyone who has problems with yeast feel ill. I didn't realize the concentration it would have in the bread. Usually I try to spread a little on toast or in hot rice cereal, but I am careful not to take too much. I have been having the problems with yeast overgrowth again and just wasn't careful enough. Now I know that I can still eat Anna's and use my machine and be just fine! Whew!!

Glad you figured it out, Kris! We have to be food detectives :D

I also can't eat coconut, but I'm intolerant to it.

      I was not a well child and on my own would stop eating certain foods when a stomachache occurred. As I got older, I began more and more anemic and ended up unable to hold food down at all. Once an endoscopy occurred, doctor said I had an obstruction in my stomach but nothing said about Celiac Disease. Dr. did stomach bypass surgery, removed a 1/3 of my...

      Top Brands of Gluten-Free Canned Chili

      While it seems unlikely to contain intentional gluten ingredients--and based on the ingredients you provided, this canned Wendy's chili appears to be gluten-free, but with a very important caveat: it cannot be considered certified or guaranteed gluten-free due to the potential for cross-contamination and the ambiguous nature of "natural flavors."

      Top Brands of Gluten-Free Canned Chili

      I have same question as trents above. After I mentioned how much I liked Wendy's chili, a neighbor gave me a can b/c I didn't know could buy it in a can. Is gluten free in Wendy's restaurant, but can doesn't say gluten free so afraid to eat it. (Can says provides 50% Daily Value of protein, another plus.) Below are ingredients on can. Would the experts...

      Some of my symptoms started in childhood, with many visits to the school nurse (mostly after lunch) with stomach aches. Low weight, thin hair and fatigue persisted through my adult life. In my 40's I began to lose a lot of weight, terrible episodes of digestive upset, etc. Two years and many tests and bills later, gallbladder, lactose, etc with no definitive...

      Rectal pain

      By cristiana · Posted

      When I have had what I think are episodes of this (I've never had a formal diagnosis for PF) it seems to be triggered by bloating caused by something I've eaten - a friend had an episode of this after eating too many apples, for me corn and rice cakes seemed to give me IBS and trigger this.  I am not a medical person but it seemed like the extra pressure down there perhaps added pressure to already sensitised pelvic and rectal muscles. Coeliacs can suffer from bloating when they are first diagnosed due to the inability to digest food properly.  Lactose for me caused a lot of bloating and when I came off it temporarily after diagnosis it helped reduce bloating.  Iron supplements and the timing of taking them also caused discomfort and I had to experiment a bit with type and timing before my gut felt comfortable.   Maybe something to think about?   Some coeliacs suffer from constipation - again, just a thought, but perhaps if you had issues with that it might be a contributor.

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      At a family wedding in Italy last year I was drinking gluten free Peroni which was fine for me. From the Daura Damn website ... " Our guarantee less than 3ppm: each batch is analyzed and certified by the CSIC using the R5 Competitive ELISA test before hitting the market. This way, we ensure that its gluten content is always below 3ppm "

      Hi jmartes, I brought up doTerra's website and see that they do have many supplements, offer  support and help. And using their organic products has been helpful. and yet you are not able to work enough to support yourself when, if you were healtht, you could work for another 20 years. It does not seem that they offer a program to follow and instead are offering supplements for your symptoms. This has helped you but you are not able to work very much.  The Programs I have seen  online usually have 3 parts. The first is a Parasite cleanse. The 2nd is the Kidney cleanse and the  3rd is a Liver cleanse and gallbladder cleanse. You need to doall these cleanses to have your whole body functioning well. I can only reccommend the program I gave you because that is the one I used and still do. (drclark.net)  When I see a newprovider and tell I have Celiacs and they look skeptical I tell them that when I am gluttoned the reaction happens 8 or more hours later with intestinal painful cramping followed by diarrhea. Providers are willing to accept tha I probably have Celiacs and are more likely order tests such as vitamin levels. Is this what happens if you eat only a small amount of Gluten? You mentioned going to Mayors. 20 years ago many Dr.s wanted to include a celiac screening as a standard test so that more people eould diagnosed and not become disabled. It did not happen but the Federal levgislature did pass a law so that Celiacs could claim deductions for the gluten free food they bought. What were you going to ask the Mayors to do?

      Gluten free nuts

      By Clear2me · Posted

      Thank you for all the excellent information. I moved from Wyoming to California. May be its where I am located but So far none of the Costco Kirkland brand I have looked at is labeled gluten free. Same with the Sam's Members Mark. The Kirkland nuts you mention all say they are processed in a plant that processes wheat.  I am going to keep checking. Thank you. The Azure Market looks promising 😁 Take care S
