i can't live without sandwiches and need a good recipe for a bread that is firm yet soft and delicious. ive had gluten free breads before that tasted like cardboard and didnt hold together when u make a sandwich. i'd really appreciate some help. I am also lactose intolerant so i cant use dairy - anyone have a recipe they are willing to share?

Thanks

For homemade breads this is my favorite, Open Original Shared Link.

I use water instead of milk and I skip the vinegar and it still tastes great.

That's my recipe :)

Jason, it's really adaptable. Milk for water, and flours, too. Nearly everyone uses a different flour combo, just keep the flours and starches separate. Feel free to email or PM me with any questions about it.

What do you mean, "keep the flours and starches separate"?

Sorry, I meant, if you sub cornstarch with, say, tapioca, that will work. But don't sub cornstarch for the flour. And so on :)

:( That's how I feel about the bread I made yesterday! Open Original Shared Link

The Mona mix is what I used for a couple of reasons, one I had it (a gift basket from a friend) and secondly I figured it was best the first time to use a mix so I know how the stuff is supposed to respond.

On her site she raves about this bread. And my other half devoured half the loaf last night but my daughter tasted it and thought it was awful (she loves gluten full french bread).

The crust was wonderful, the bread was sponge like and the taste was not something I was prepared for. I could barely swallow the last bite of my slice of bread.

The ingredients are : white rice flour, tapioca starch, sugar, xanthan gum, sea salt!

I can assume that the taste is the flours that are used in any gluten-free bread recipe. I still think it was good to use a mix the first time so I can see how it responds. She has pictuers on her site that show step by step what it looks like and that helped me.

But flavor, is sorely missing.

Over the weekend I aquired 2 books, The gluten free gourmet and Gluten free baking classics both of which use different types of gluten-free flour mixes. I am hoping any one of them taste better or I get used to it.

My last two loaves have been out of Annalise Roberts Gluten-Free Baking Classics (overall a very good cook book). And so far, this recipe has produced the best tasting bread (family consensus) - it uses sorghum and millet (and more). It is fabulous fresh out of the oven. I didn't think it was too bad for a sandwich the next day (heat ever so slightly in the microwave and then let cool, first) but my kids are still having a problem adjusting to the texture. I think it just takes time for it to become the new norm.

Also, just to add my personal opinion on flours . . . the bean flours give you a better texture but for us the taste was off. The rice flours . . . ugh . . . NO TASTE, crumbly, heavy . . . not good for bread. I use both bean flours and rice flours in other recipes, but in bread, the flour is too dominant of a factor in it's flavor.

Yes I just got that cookbook. I saw the recipes and am glad to know the bread recipes are worth making. I have heard pros and cons about the bean flours, I am sure it adds bulk but a bean is a bean I would think! :lol:

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      @rei.b, I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be. I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse. My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet. It makes a big difference. Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies. So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms...

      Finding gluten free ingredients

      Imemsm, Most of us have experienced discontinued, not currently available or products that suddenly become seasonal. My biggest fear about relocating from Maryland to Florida 5 years ago, was being able to find gluten-free foods that fit my restricted diet. I soon found out that the Win Dixie and Publix supper markets actually has 99% of their gluten-free...

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      Okay well the info about TTG-A actually makes a lot of sense and I wish the PA had explained that to me. But yes, I would assume I would have intestinal damage from eating a lot of gluten for 32 years while having all these symptoms. As far as avoiding gluten foods - I was definitely not doing that. Bread, pasta, quesadillas (with flour tortillas) and...

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      So you're saying that you think you should have severe intestinal damage since you've had the symptoms so long? DGP IgG antibodies are produced in response to a partial gluten molecule. This is different than what tissue transglutaminase antibodies are produced in response to. TTg IgA antibodies are produced in the intestines in response to...

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      I was tested for celiac at the same time, so I wasn't taking naltrexone yet. I say that, because I don't. The endoscopy showed some mild inflammation but was inconclusive as to celiac disease. They took several biopsies and that's all that was shown. I was not given a Marsh score.

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.

      Imemsm, Most of us have experienced discontinued, not currently available or products that suddenly become seasonal.   My biggest fear about relocating from Maryland to Florida 5 years ago, was being able to find gluten-free foods that fit my restricted diet.  I soon found out that the Win Dixie and Publix supper markets actually has 99% of their gluten-free foods tagged, next to the price.  The gluten-free tags opened up a  lot of foods that aren't actually marked gluten-free by the manufacture.  Now I only need to check for my other dietary restrictions.  Where my son lives in New Hartford, New York there's a Hannaford Supermarket that also has a gluten-free tag next to the price tag.  Hopefully you can locate a Supermarket within a reasonable travel distance that you can learn what foods to check out at a Supermarket close to you.  I have dermatitis herpetiformis too and I'm very sensitive to gluten and the three stores I named were very gluten-free friendly.  Good Luck

But yes, I would assume I would have intestinal damage from eating a lot of gluten for 32 years while having all these symptoms. As far as avoiding gluten foods - I was definitely not doing that. Bread, pasta, quesadillas (with flour tortillas) and crackers are my 4 favorite foods and I ate at least one of those things multiple times a day e.g. breakfast with eggs and toast, a cheese quesadilla for lunch, and pasta for dinner, and crackers and cheese as a before bed snack. I'm not even kidding.  I'm not really big on sugar, so I don't really do sweets. I don't have any of those conditions.  I am not sure if I have the genes or not. When the geneticist did my genetic testing for EDS this year, I didn't think to ask for him to request the celiac genes so they didn't test for them, unfortunately.  I guess another expectation I had is  that if gluten was the issue, the gluten-free diet would make me feel better, and I'm 3 months in and that hasn't been the case. I am being very careful and reading every label because I didn't want to screw this up and have to do gluten-free for longer than necessary if I end up not having celiac. I'm literally checking everything, even tea and anything else prepacked like caramel dip. Honestly its making me anxious 😅

      So you're saying that you think you should have severe intestinal damage since you've had the symptoms so long?   DGP IgG antibodies are produced in response to a partial gluten molecule.  This is different than what tissue transglutaminase antibodies are  produced in response to.   TTg IgA antibodies are produced in the intestines in response to gluten.  The tTg IgA antibodies attack our own cells because a structural component in our cell membranes resembles a part of gluten.  There's a correlation between the level of intestinal damage with the level of tTg antibodies produced.  You are not producing a high number of tTg IgA antibodies, so your level of tissue damage in your intestines is not very bad.  Be thankful.   There may be reasons why you are not producing a high quantity of tTg IgA antibodies.  Consuming ten grams or more of gluten a day for two weeks to two months before blood tests are done is required to get sufficient antibody production and damage to the intestines.  Some undiagnosed people tend to subconsciously avoid lots of gluten.  Cookies and cakes do not contain as much gluten as artisan breads and thick chewy pizza crust.  Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can affect IgA antibody production as well.   Do you carry genes for Celiac?  They frequently go along with EDS.
