I just went shopping and found Streit's Premium Egg Bows. On the bag is says Kosher Parve.

The ingredients: Durum flour, egg solids, niacin, ferrous sulfate, thiamine mononitrate, riboflavin and folic acid. (no indication of wheat)

Can anyone tell me what Durum flour is? I'm guessing some sort of bean flour? Gluten Free?

Thanks

Lisa,

Durum flour is made from durum wheat. They are not gluten-free! ;)

Do not eat those, durum is the name for a variety of wheat. They are not safe.

Ok, a little disturbed here. Should they not be required by law to list "wheat" as the source of the flour?

Or do they assume that everyone should know what it is? ...grumble, grumble

"Kosher Parve" does not have anything to do with Passover (in case that's what made you wonder if they were wheat-free). "Parve" means that it is neither milk nor meat, but neutral, so someone who keeps Kosher can eat it with either milk or meat and not break the rules of keeping Kosher.

However, you might be able to find Manischevitz Kosher-for-Passover egg noodles, which are made with potato starch rather than wheat. Since Passover is only just over, you might be able to find them on sale. I like Tinkyada better, though....

Exactly what I was thinking. I have read and heard that this is the time to gobble up Passover products during this time. I choose poorly. (an Indiana Jones quote that we always use here). But more informed, thank you.

Momma Goose,

I was a few months into the gluten-free diet when I made the same mistake. I was looking for the word wheat and when I didnt see it I got all excited...Until I googled it..once I got sick :angry: You live you learn.

Ah but they did by using the word Durum, and yes they just assume we all know that is what it is.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!
