Tips For Pizza Success

I haven't been on in a while because life a has been busy. We have gone gluten-free as a family now and I have been working hard on adjusting recipes. Homemade pizza was a Friday night specialty for me before celiac. Friends raved about it! I've got some tips to share if anyone is having a hard time getting it to turnout well.

1. Parchment paper is essential! Line the pan with it.

2. Dock the dough. This is a baker's term that means take a fork and poke holes all over before baking. :P

3. Lower the oven temp to 350 to bake with toppings.

4. Take off the pan and parchment paper and bake directly on oven rack after topping it.

The recipe I use and like calls for gelatin, xanthan gum, powdered milk. I have had great success using all combos of flour and starch. The ratio is 2/3 cup bean/sorghum/teff (heavy flour) to 1/2 cup light starch like tapioca, rice or potato.

I hope this helps someone make a good pizza. I think there are lots of good recipes out there but the techniques need a little tweaking.

I'm off to have a slice and a Redbridge!

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
