Chebe Bread Mix?


WyattsMomma

Recommended Posts

WyattsMomma Newbie

I am new to the gluten free diet and am actually in the process of getting my family ready to go gluten free this week. I bought a bread mix called Chebe all purpose bread mix and was wondering if it is supposed to be chewy in the middle? Did I put too much liquid in? Did I knead it too long? Did I not cook it long enough? Are all gluten free breads chewy? Please help me find good alternatives to bread. I am not a big meal planner or chef. I don't bake on a regular basis but if I can find a recipe that is easy to make then I am all for it. Thanks in advance for the info.

I don't know about Chebe mixes but it seems a lot of the gluten free breads are moist, a little to much so. <_<

The following link is to a wonderful gluten free bread recipe. We use it exclusively.

Chebe is really good if you bake it correctly. You have to make the dough really thin and make sure you bake it long enough. I've never made Chebe into an actual loaf of bread, but I wouldn't imagine it would work that way....it works well as really narrow breadsticks. The pizza crust and the foccacia are both really great too. I don't know exactly why it sometimes gets too chewy (except maybe when it's too thick), but it's worth experimenting with it a bit b/c it's really really great if it comes out right.

Chebe does have a very different texture than other gluten-free breads...

Chebe bread can be great but one trick I've learned is after baking, wrap it in a flour sack towel (or something else non-terry cloth) and let it sit in your colander for at least 12 hours so it can breath. Otherwise, the tapioca flour can go gummy and chewy. After a day or so, you can transfer it to a ziploc bag. I keep mine in the microwave so the cat doesn't get any ideas. I

My favorite so far is the link you were already given. I don't each much bread lately, but when I do it's this recipe. VERY easy to make and bake. I'm the only one eating gluten free so I usually eat half the loaf and then make bread crumbs with it after about 2 days. GREAT bread crumbs from it...use them ALL the time also.

I also like the gluten-free Pantry Sandwich bread mentioned. I don't buy that as much, but I really like to bake and cook, so it's just relearning the craft.

GOOD LUCK! :D

Thanks for all the suggestions. I will continue to experiment with the Chebe and also try to bread recipes given here. I do get a bit overwhelmed with new tasks that are different for me, especially cooking and baking, but I need to do this for my health. I really appreciate everyone's input to my question. Thanks again.

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning? Hello. I've had another similar episode. I find it very difficult to differentiate between the symptoms of a cold or flu and those caused by gluten poisoning. In fact, I don't know if my current worsening is due to having eaten something that disagreed with me or if the cold I have has caused my body, which is hypersensitive, to produce symptoms similar to those of gluten poisoning.

      I'm no longer dealing with constipation. I got my liver test last month and it was in normal range. Two years ago I did have a vitamin D deficiency but I'm know taking vitamin D3 pills. Last month I got my vitamin D checked and it was in normal range. I don't believe I've had my choline checked. However, I do drink almond milk eat Greek yogurt on a daily basis.

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange. Have you been supplementing Iron? How are your liver enzymes? Low levels of ferritin indicate iron deficiency, while  59% transferrin saturation indicates high iron levels.  Possibly indicating Fatty Liver Disease.  Choline is crucial for liver health, and deficiency is a known trigger for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.  Some experts say that less than 10% eat the the Food and Nutrition Board established Adequate Intake that are based on the prevention of liver damage. Severe constipation and hemorrhoids may be linked to a bile or choline deficiency.  "Ninety-five percent of phospholipids (PLs) in bile is secreted as phosphatidylcholine or lecithin."  Fatty acid composition of phospholipids in bile in man   Deficiency of these bile salts causes the bile to get thick. Some people with Celiac Disease are misdiagnosed with Gall Bladder bile issues.  Removal of the gallbladder provides only temporary relief. Whether or not celiac disease or NCGS are your issues you need to look at your vitamin D blood level.

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly flareups.
