Does anyone have a recipe to make CHinese dumplings or pot stickers? I feel like it can't be that hard to make them gluten free but I am not sure!

I've been playing with recipes for pot stickers and shumai since I was diagnosed a few years ago.

Lately 100% soba powder seems to work the best. Alot of soba (buckwheat) is mixed with flour as a binder. Same with soba noodles so you have to be careful to make sure the soba powder is 100%. Use very cold water when mixing it.

When I'm rolling the soba, I use quinoa flour on the board to keep it from sticking. I've tried rice and almond flours but so far soba seems to work and taste the best.

I've not tried the bao big steamed buns in a long time. I think it may be a matter of finding the right mix of flours to get them to taste half way decent.

good luck

Ken,

So have you been using a regular recipe for soba noodles and just cutting it in circles instead for the gyoza or shumai and then procceeding as usual for those recipies? Dh has been researching making his own noodles lately(gluten-free I'm assuming). It's his little hobby lately and I'm not sure exactly what he's up to! and I can't snoop 'cause it's all in Japanese! :P

Hi,

Right, I just use the sobako which I bring from Japan where its milled. Just dont trust the commercial stuff here after a bad experience getting glutened from what was said to be 100% soba. Instead of cutting noodles I just cut circles or squares and fill them with traditional stuffings or get creative. also use them for ravioli. My favorite is to stuff the gyoza with figs, feta and spinach. Ok so its a Japanese/Greek cultural clash but it sure tastes good, especially with some of the sauces we make from fruit I grow. Many years ago I trained as a chef in Japan but last March went back to take a soba class. If you scroll down on

you can see a lot of pictures of the master at work. I did learn a lot about working with sobako and started making everything with it. kase spatzel with soba is really great!

take care

Thank you for the advice, info. and photos. I imagine that combination of ingredients goes quite nicely with the sobako. Sounds really good! How can one resist figs or feta! and spinach to balance the two. I imagine butternut squash would be good too.

OH good idea although here we grow a lot of kabocha -- butternut does sound good.

GUess I'll have to find time to make them with the squash although fig season is just starting..

take care

      You're right, doctors usually only test Vitamin D and B12.  Both are really important, but they're not good indicators of deficiencies in the other B vitamins.  Our bodies are able to store Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D in the liver for up to a year or longer.  The other B vitamins can only be stored for much shorter periods of time.  Pyridoxine B 6 can be stored for several months, but the others only a month or two at the longest.  Thiamine stores can be depleted in as little as three days.  There's no correlation between B12 levels and the other B vitamins' levels.  Blood tests can't measure the amount of vitamins stored inside cells where they are used.  There's disagreement as to what optimal vitamin levels are.  The Recommended Daily Allowance is based on the minimum daily amount needed to prevent disease set back in the forties when people ate a totally different diet and gruesome experiments were done on people.  Folate  requirements had to be updated in the nineties after spina bifida increased and synthetic folic acid was mandated to be added to grain products.  Vitamin D requirements have been updated only in the past few years.   Doctors aren't required to take as many hours of nutritional education as in the past.  They're educated in learning institutions funded by pharmaceutical corporations.  Natural substances like vitamins can't be patented, so there's more money to be made prescribing pharmaceuticals than vitamins.   Also, look into the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, developed by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, a Celiac herself.  Her book The Paleo Approach has been most helpful to me.  You're very welcome.  I'm glad I can help you around some stumbling blocks while on this journey.    Keep me posted on your progress!  Best wishes!

      So interesting that you stated you had sub clinical vitamin deficiencies. When I was first diagnosed with celiac disease (silent), the vitamin levels my doctor did test for were mostly within normal range (lower end) with the exception of vitamin D. I believe he tested D, B12, magnesium, and iron.  I wondered how it was possible that I had celiac disease without being deficient in everything!  I’m wondering now if I have subclinical vitamin deficiencies as well, because even though I remain gluten free, I struggle with insomnia, low energy, body aches, etc.  It’s truly frustrating when you stay true to the gluten-free diet, yet feel fatigued most days. I’ll definitely try the B-complex, and the Benfotiamine again, and will keep you posted. Thanks once again!

      Segments of the protein Casein are the same as segments of the protein strands of gluten, the 33-mer segment.   The cow's body builds that Casein protein.  It doesn't come from wheat.   Casein can trigger the same reaction as being exposed to gluten in some people.   This is not a dairy allergy (IGE mediated response).  It is not lactose intolerance.

      Wheatwacked, what exactly did you intend when you stated that wheat is incorporated into the milk of cows fed wheat? Obviously, the gluten would be broken down by digestion and is too large a molecule anyway to cross the intestinal membrane and get into the bloodstream of the cow. What is it from the wheat that you are saying becomes incorporated into the milk protein?
    • Scott Adams
      Wheat in cow feed would not equal gluten in the milk, @Wheatwacked, please back up extraordinary claims like this with some scientific backing, as I've never heard that cow's milk could contain gluten due to what the cow eats.
