I Ate A Sandwich!

I have to tell you - after this bread was a flop for me - I cut it in slices, let it dry for a day, and made bread crumbs -

Oh my gosh, my family loved the meatloaf and the meatballs I made with it - I have to say, the meatloaf was so much better than I ever remember it. I froze the rest of the crumbs in little snack bags for the next batch I make up.

I need to get more sorghum flour and I will be making the bread again soon.

Is this bread like a traditional sandwich bread, like wonder sponge? Texture? Flavor? Also, does it need to be toasted the next day?

Guhlia:

Hmmm.. As far as texture, the best I can describe it as is similar to a loaf of wheat bread, but not quite. I thought that the flavor was better than wheat bread. It's definately not like a loaf of white Wonder Bread, but it does have the air pockets and texture that you would expect in a good loaf of bread.

This bread has a mild flavor that went very well with peanut butter and jelly, ham and cheese, french toast, even plain bread and butter! Best of all, it didn't crumble and held up to making a full ham and cheese sandwich. What excited me the most about this bread was that it is a full size loaf, not one of the itty bitty loaves that you buy at the store for about $5 a loaf.

I kept this bread on the counter in a sealed bag. After 2 days, I finished off the loaf by making a peanut butter sandwich with it. It was still fairly moist and didn't need to be toasted. I did notice that it was starting to go stale, but the bag had not sealed properly. Don't know if that had anything to do with the staleness.

Can anyone else add anything about texture and flavor?

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.

Sorghum Flour Bread

Well, finally I gave this recipe a try. I mixed my sourgum flour mixture. Easy. Then I put all my ingredients together and anxiously waited for it to rise. I waited and hour, nothing! Another half hour and still nothing. The bread was in a cool oven, no drafts. Then I feeling rather perplexed I looked in my drawer to find that I had forgotten the yeast!!!! WaHaaa! Now what. Well, I wasn't throwing that mix away. I am far to frugile for that. So I took the mixture out of the pan and spread it on a well oiled pizza pan. I baked the mixture for 20 min at 350. I took it out and added EVOO, carmelized onions, garlic and rosemary. I put it back in the oven for another 5 min. My DH asked if we could add some cheese to it and so we did. Italian cheese. So then I put it under the broiler. UMMMM!!!! What a fantasitic mistake! It was a little cheewey so the next time I might cook it a little longer. But I will be doing this again real soon! It was a cross between a foccasa and a pizza. We LOVED it! You would have never guessed it was gluten free. So needless to say, I don't know what type of bread it would have been but it was a great foccasa/white pizza. Thanks for the recipe.

Ohhh... I'm going to have to try that! I've been wanting pizza lately. Maybe this weekend when my sister comes to visit!

Do you think this would work in a bread machine?

I made this bread today and it was so yummy. I cant wait to make french toast with it tom for breakfast. I even splurged and put butter on it. It is the first good bread I have had since being diagnosed two years ago. Thank you for the recipe.

Forgot to mention that this is the bread I will be using for my Thanksgiving stuffing this year. I may cut it up and let it get stale overnight.

I used the sorghum bread for grilled cheese for lunch and then made french toast(whick I have been having a craving for)for dinner. This recipe is definately a keeper.

      Hello, @Dora77, I agree with you that your doctors aren't very knowledgeable about Celiac Disease.  My doctors didn't recognize nutritional deficiencies either.  I became very deficient in vitamins before I was diagnosed, so having experienced similar, I understand what a difficult time you're having.   Poor absorption of essential nutrients is caused by the damage done to the intestines by Celiac Disease.  The gluten free diet can be low in essential nutrients, so supplementing to boost your absorption is beneficial.  New symptoms can develop or worsen as one becomes more and more deficient.   There's eight essential B vitamins that our bodies cannot make, so they must come from our...

      My chest pain has been caused by costochondritis, as well as times when iron supplements has given me such bad bloating it has put pressure on my back and chest, and reflux can do the same. Also, along the lines of Wheatwacked's suggestion above, is it possible you had an injury to your chest/ribs way back that is being set off by either some sort of gastrointestinal bloating/discomfort? I distinctly remember really hurting a rib over forty years ago when I misjudged a wall and thought it was just behind me but in fact it wasn't.  I fell badly against the wall and I think I cracked a rib then.  For some strange reason I didn't tell anyone but I think had I gone to hospital an X-ray...

      Sorry for the long post. I’m 18, and I was diagnosed with celiac disease and type 1 diabetes (T1D). My transglutaminase IgA was >128 U/mL, EMA IgA positive twice, and I’m HLA-DQ2 and DQ8 positive. I’ve been completely asymptomatic since diagnosis, even when I cheated with gluten sometimes in the past and used to eat out(2-5 years ago) I don’t get the typical celiac reactions, which makes it really hard to know when (or if) I’ve been glutened. But for the past year, I’ve been the most strict with my diet, and that’s also when a bunch of new issues started. I eat completely glutenfree, never eat out, dont eat food that says „may contain gluten“.   Current Health...

      I've been making a lot of black bean brownies lately because it's one of the few gluten free dessert recipes that actually tastes palatable.  I've also seen chocolate cake recipes with black beans.  Someone mentioned a cookie recipe using lentils in place of flour.  Just wondering if anyone's run across any tried and true recipes using beans, lentils or peas for desserts?  I've seen a lot of recipes for garbanzo flour but I'm allergic to garbanzo beans/chickpeas.  Was wondering if adzuki or pinto beans might be useful in replacing some or all of the flour in baking.  Since gluten free flours can be crumbly was hoping the beans might help produce a better, less crumbly consistency.  Any...
