Chebe No-frills Mix?

I bought some of the Chebe no frills all-purpose mix last week because it was so much cheaper than buying the packaged mixes. It is basically a 20 pound bag of the all-purpose Chebe. Now I am panicking because I am afraid it will not come with instructions on how to measure it out to use it. Nothing like a crapload of Chebe mix and no idea how much it takes to make a batch. :blink:

Has anyone ordered the no-frills mix, and did it come with instructions? I don't know how much (by volume) is in the packages that are individually sized, but they are all around 7.5 ounces or so. Anyone know how many cups of Chebe is in one of them?

Thanks for any help!

Buying Chebe in bulk is a great idea! I didn't know it came that way.

I have several of the plain red Chebe packages on hand but I'm not going to be able to bake until later tonight or maybe tomorrow morning. When I do, I'll measure one of the red packages and post the measurement of mix in the package and the directions.

How are you planning on fixing it?

I made parmesan breadsticks with green chilis and cooked them to a crunchy/chewy texture. YUM!

A red pack of basic Chebe mix contains 2 cups and 1-1/2 Tbsp. of mix. This was measured the way they taught me in Home Ec -- spooning the mix out into the cup measure and leveling off the cup. If you were scooping it out of a bag, it would probably be 2 cups. Basic Chebe is the most forgiving gluten-free bread I've found.

Where did you find Chebe sold in bulk?

I ordered it directly from the Chebe website at Open Original Shared Link It is so much cheaper than buying the packages and I am such a cheapskate. B)

Thank you so much for measuring that out for me. I can't wait until it gets here to start making me some Chebe! Who know I could get so excited about bread? The recipe you mentioned above sounds great. I may have to try it. I am REALLY craving a soft pretzel right now, and I think Chebe may work for a reasonable facsimile.

Hey, I think that may be new - very cool. Next time, I will just order a few cases and then the bulk of the all-purpose mix (gluten-free/LF)!

I just realized in looking at your link that I measured the red package which has dry milk in it. I have a yellow package of the all-purpose (dairy free) at home that was a freebie from the store where I buy all of my Chebe. I promise I'll make something with it by the weekend and see if the package contains the same measurements. Sorry for the delay, I thought the original was the all purpose. That explains why I couldn't find it, dry milk might go off by the time you used 20 pounds. Although I wonder if the cream of tarter and baking soda will get old like baking powder does? Are you going to store it in the freezer?

      Maybe celiac but maybe NCGS that was misdiagnosed as IBS morphing gradually into celiac. Is NCGS a new category to you? It shares many of the same GI symptoms with celiac disease but does not damage the small bowel lining like celiac.

      Oral thrush question

      Thiamine has antifungal properties.  The body uses thiamine to keep bacteria and yeasts from overgrowth in the digestive system.   Fluconazole use can cause thiamine deficiency.   Supplementing with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine would be beneficial as Benfotiamine promotes intestinal healing.   Thiamine and the other B vitamins tend to be low in Celiac due to malabsorption.  Talk to your doctor about supplementing vitamins and minerals.

      Nutrient deficiencies despite normal MARSH and strict gluten-free diet

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome @Natalia Revelo, your experience is profoundly difficult and, sadly, not entirely unique within the celiac community. It's the frustrating reality of "silent" or ongoing damage that isn't captured by the MARSH score alone, which only measures active villous atrophy. Your normal biopsy suggests your diet is preventing the classic autoimmune attack, but it doesn't mean your gut has fully healed or that other issues aren't at play. The inflammation from your newly discovered milk and egg allergies is a huge clue; this constant allergic response can create a low-grade inflammatory environment that severely hampers nutrient absorption, effectively creating a "leaky gut" scenario independent of celiac damage. This is likely why your iron stores deplete so rapidly—your body is both unable to absorb it efficiently and may be losing it through inflammation. While the functional medicine path is expensive, it's clearly providing answers and relief that traditional gastroenterology, focused solely on the gluten-free diet and biopsy results, is missing. To move forward, continue the gut-healing protocols your functional doctor recommends (perhaps exploring alternative options to glutamine that won't irritate your cystitis), maintain your strict avoidance of all allergens and irritants, and know that true healing is a multi-faceted process. You might seek a second opinion from a different gastroenterologist who is more knowledgeable about non-responsive celiac disease and the complex interplay of food allergies and micronutrient absorption, but your current path, while costly, seems to be leading you toward the steady health you need.

      Have you had a DNA test to look for Celiac disease genes?  If she doesn't have any celiac specific genes, look for another explanation.  If she does have Celiac genes, assume they are turned on and active Celiac disease is progressing.  All first degree relatives (mother, father, siblings, children) should be genetically tested as well.   Sometimes blood tests are ambiguous or false negatives if one has anemia, diabetes or thiamine deficiency.  Certain medications like antihistamines and steroids can suppress the immune system and result in false negatives or ambiguous results on antibody tests.

      That was just the visual report, so need to wait for confirmation or otherwise from the results. They did take a biopsy from the upper end of the duodenum(D1). D2 looked unremarkable on the camera. Just wish we didn’t have to wait so long for the results as she’s naturally a very anxious person. But thanks so much for taking the time to answer me
