I Ate A Sandwich!


Mistilyn

Recommended Posts

Mistilyn Rookie

I did it! I did it! I made a sandwich that actually tastes like a sandwich!!

I'm not talking about a sandwich made from those dry, cardboard flavored breads, either. I'm talking moist, springy bread with a thin, flaky crust type bread sandwich!

I made the bread and I tell you, peanut butter and apple jelly has never tasted so good. (Yes, this is my very own recipe that I adapted from a regular (glutenated) white bread recipe.)

Only problem I had with the bread is that it is so moist and springy it is difficult to cut while the bread is still hot. So, make sure to allow the bread to cool completely before slicing.

I have been looking for a bread to try. Will def try making this one!

Darn210 Enthusiast

Your timing is perfect. I am getting ready to make bread today. I keep hearing how wonderful sorghum flour is yet it always seems to be a small portion of any recipe that I see. I'll have to give this a try.

Mistilyn Rookie

I gave my landlords each a piece of this bread this afternoon. They both asked me if I was sure this was a type of bread I can eat!! Their daughter stole half of it for herself. :lol:

Any ideas for the dairy intolerant? Would you use rice or soy milk in place of the regular milk?

Mistilyn Rookie

Hmm... rice or soy? I'm not sure how to answer that question. I'm dairy sensitive, but I can use milk in cooking and eat cheese and some yogurts without a problem. I just cannot drink milk or eat ice cream.

Soy milk gives me a very bad stomach ache, so I've never worked with it. If I were to replace the milk, I'd probably use rice milk just because that's what I can use.

Anyone who can use soy milk have any ideas on this? I'm thinking that either one could be used.

Mistilyn Rookie

Oops!

I just made another loaf of bread using the recipe as I had it posted and realized I posted what I originally wrote, not the final recipe.

I edited the recipe and made the following changes:

1 cup of Milk (not 3/4 cup)

Bake for 40 minuites. (Not 45 minutes)

Sorry about that everyone!!

Okay, I was soooo excited when I saw this receipe that I went right to the kitchen and started to mix this up... Then I see this at the bottom -

Sorghum Flour Mix

3 - cups Sorghum Flour

2 - cups Potato Starch

2.5 - cups Tapioca Flour

oh my gosh, I probably will have a rock. I only used sorghum flour ... I tried to fix it by adding 1/2 c Potato starch, and 1/2 c Tapioca Flour, one more egg, and a splash of water....

It is slowly rising, but it has been 45 min.... I feel so stupid.

I guess we still won't be eating a good bread yet. :(

Mistilyn Rookie

Oh no! Don't feel stupid. I should have put the flour mix at the top or made a note that it was listed at the bottom.

I'm so sorry I didn't put the flour mix more visible. :(

Oh my ... it wasn't your fault, I just got so excited about the receipe and started before I read the whole thing. thinking I have sorghum flour I just jumped right in. I put it in the oven anyway to see what happens, it rose about 2" from the top of the pan..but as it is baking it is not looking good. Want to hide it before anyone comes home from work/school. I don't want them to be excited....then disappointed.

jmd3 Contributor

Yep. bread is too dry and dense, but...

On the bright side...I will have bread crumbs for meatloaf, or meatballs! :rolleyes:

newlyfree Rookie

Thanks for the recipe, I've been REALLY wanting to make a sorghum bread! Question though - I have a problem with potatoes, anyone have recommendations for an alternate starch for the flour mix?

Thanks!

You're welcome :)

You could try cornstarch as an alternative. I've also heard that some people substitute arrowroot starch for cornstarch. Don't know how that would turn out. I've never tried using arrowroot in bread before.

Would this recipe work with skim milk? I never keep whole milk in the house, but assume that this recipe was originally made with whole milk. Would the difference in the fat content in the milk make a difference in the taste/texture of the bread? Thanks.

Yellow Rose Explorer

Do you think this would work in a bread machine?

Yellow Rose

Mistilyn Rookie

Mrg: I would think you can do this with skim milk. If you try it, please let us know how it comes out. :)

Yellow Rose: I've never used a bread machine, so I do not know the answer to this. I do know that the dough ends up very thick and sticky before I pour it into the pan. If you try it in the bread machine, please let us know if it works. :)

I sub hemp or almond milk 1 for 1 in all recipes and have never had a problem. I make the best gluten free bread recipe from this site and use hemp instead of regular milk and it turns out for me.

mrg8610 Rookie

The skim milk worked great. This loaf came out better than almost any other loaf of gluten-free bread that I've tried to make from scratch. It rose nicely and baked to a golden brown and, best of all, my DD loved it. I was able to slice the loaf into thin slices and it didn't crumble at all. Thanks!

Mystilyn: I am getting ready to gather my ingredients to make bread. I am confused on the amount of milk you used. Was it a cup like the posted recipie states or 3/4 cup?

Mistilyn Rookie

Use 1 cup of milk. I edited the original post and was letting people know what I changed. Sorry about the confusion.

Amanda Thomas Rookie

THANK YOU for this wonderful bread!!!!! :D I made one loaf yesterday afternoon and Kaitlyn Grace ate 3 slices, it was so good that I ended up making another loaf last night. I used skim milk and I warmed it in the microwave. It rose very beautifully while baking a good 2-3 inches above my pan and did not deflate after baking. It slices great, no crumbled messes. It was a very easy bread to make.

As a side note I added 1/2 cup of soy flour to the flour mixture and 1 cup of flax seed.

THANK YOU AGAIN

Thanks! Can't wait to bake it!!

I sure wish someone would try this in a bread machine! I'm dying to try this recipe. I think tomorrow will be the day for me to try this in a machine....will post the results.

Ginsou Explorer

Leave it to a Yankee to come up with such a great recipe (I'm originally from NH also).I tried this in my bread machine today and I only have one complaint....I want more! I used the basic bread cycle,put the liquids in first, along with melted butter and brown sugar,added the flour mixture,then the yeast on top. The bread loaf was smaller than I thought it woluld be, so I will adjust the recipe the next time and make 1 1/2 times the recipe. I used Blue Diamond unsweetened original almond drink because I'm trying to avoid dairy. I started trying bread recipes about a month ago, and this one is the best so far. It hasn't cooled completely yet, and half the loaf has been eaten. If the texture is the same tomorrow as right now, it's a keeper. Thanks for this recipe.

It's tomorrow and the bread is a bit dry and crumbly. I'm at a high altitude (the Rockies) and neglected to add additional water to compensate for the altitude. The taste was superb. I'll be at a lower altitude for the winter season and will try it again. I also purchased a heavy duty mixer with dough hooks, so I can test the original recipe.

mamatide Enthusiast

Great bread! We just ate sandwiches on it too - fresh loaf. I'll be anxious to see what the consistency is tomorrow.

This makes a nice tall, fragrant and mild-tasting loaf of bread that turns out well when using the directions noted in the first post to this thread. It took a little while longer for mine to rise but only about 10 minutes more, and my yeast was set to expire in Dec of this year, so it could be that.

      no argument. Never take the pills sold for Nuclear events, except in a nuclear event when instructed to by authorities.  Some of these go up to 130 milligrams per pill. 5000 times the strength of the dietary supplement.  130 times the safe upper limit.  130 mg = 130,000 mcg. Dietary supplements like Lugol's Solution and Liquid Iodine are 50 micrograms per drop.  It takes 20 drops to reach the safe upper limit. In the US the Safe upper limit is 1100 mcg.  In Europe 600 mcg and in Japan 3000 mcg ( 3 mg).

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @JudyLou! There are a couple of things you might consider to help you in your decision that would not require you to do a gluten challenge. The first, that is if you have not had this test run already, is to request a "total IGA" test to be run. One of the reasons that celiac blood antibody tests can be negative, apart from not having celiac disease, that is, is because of IGA deficiency. If a person is IGA deficient, they will not respond accurately to the celiac disease blood antibody tests (such as the commonly run TTG-IGA). The total IGA test is designed to check for IGA deficiency. The total IGA test is not a celiac antibody test so I wouldn't think that a gluten challenge is necessary. The second is to have genetic testing done to determine if you have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease. About 30-40% of  the general population have the genetic potential but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, genetic testing cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease but it can be used to rule it out. Those who don't have the genetic potential but still have reaction to gluten would not be diagnosed with celiac disease but with NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).  Another possibility is that you do have celiac disease but are in remission. We do see this but often it doesn't last.

      Hi there, I’m debating whether to consider a gluten challenge and I’m hoping someone here can help with that decision (so far, none of the doctors have been helpful). I have a history of breaking out in a horrible, burning/itchy somewhat blistering rash about every 8 years. This started when I was in my early 30’s and at that point it started at the ankles and went about to my knees. Every time I had the rash it would cover more of my body, so my arms and part of my torso were impacted as well, and it was always symmetrical. First I was told it was an allergic reaction to a bug bite. Next I was told it was eczema (after a biopsy of the lesion - not the skin near the lesion) and given a steroid injection (didn’t help). I took myself off of gluten about 3 weeks before seeing an allergist, just to see if it would help (it didn’t in that time period). He thought the rash looked like dermatitis herpetiformis and told me to eat some bread the night before my blood tests, which I did, and the tests came back negative. I’ve since learned from this forum that I needed to be eating gluten daily for at least a month in order to get an accurate test result. I’m grateful to the allergist as he found that 5 mg of doxepin daily will eliminate the rash within about 10 days (previously it lasted for months whether I was eating gluten or not). I have been gluten free for about 25 years as a precaution and recommendation from my doctor, and the pattern of breaking out every 8 years or so remains the same except once I broke out after just one year (was not glutened as far as I know), and now it’s been over 9 years. What’s confusing to me, is that there have been 3 times in the past 2 years when I’ve accidentally eaten gluten, and I haven’t had any reaction at all. Once someone made pancakes (they said they were gluten-free, they were not) and I ate several. I need to decide whether to do a gluten challenge and get another blood test. If I do, are these tests really accurate? I’m also concerned that I could damage my gut in that process if I do have celiac disease. My brother and cousin both had lymphoma so that’s a concern regarding a challenge as well, though there is a lot of cancer in various forms in my family so there may be no gluten connection there. Sorry for the ramble, I’m just doubting the need to remain gluten free if I don’t have any reaction to eating it and haven’t had a positive test (other than testing positive for one of the genes, though it sounds like that’s pretty common). I’d appreciate any thoughts or advice!

      Hello, just popped in my head to ask this question about medications and celiac? I have always had refurse reaction to meds since I can remember  of what little meds my body is able to tolerate. I was taking gabapentin 300mg for a week,  in past I believe 150? Any ways it amps me up not able to sleep, though very tired.However I did notice it helped with my bloating sibo belly.I hate that my body is that sensitive and medical doesn't seem to take seriously. Im STILL healing with my skin, eye, and now ms or meningioma ( will know in April  which)and dealing with this limbo nightmare. I did write my name, address ect on the reclamation but im not tech savvy and not sure if went through properly. I called my city representative in Stanislaus County and asked if theres a physical paper i can sign for proclamation for celiac and she had no clue about what I was saying, so I just said I'll go back on website.

      I'm not saying that some celiacs won't need it, but it should be done under a doctor's supervision because it can cause lots of problems in some people.
