I would like to make bread, but most of the recipes I have call for gelatin. Does anyone know of a good gluten free vegetarian substitute for gelatin?

I personally would use xanthan gum or guar gum, but here are a few pages with other ideas. There are some kosher gelatins that are vegetarian, but you'd have to check on the gluten aspect.

Thanks so much. The recipe already calls for xanthan gum so I wanted to use something else. I am just worried about the taste and consistancy! I will give it a shot.

There is a powdered form of gelatin derived from seaweed(tastes like what we are used to though) that is available at asian markets. The one I am familiar with is Japanese.

Agar is probably what you get from the Asian store. Sometimes called Agar-agar. It's a different texture from gelatin, but you can still make a soft but solid block with it.

      It looks like their most recent clinical trial just finished up on 5-22-2025.

      Dear Scott,  please check the link https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05574010?intr=KAN-101&rank=1 What do you think about it?

      KAN‑101 is still very much in development and being actively studied. It has not been dropped—rather, it is advancing through Phases 1 and 2, moving toward what could become the first disease‑modifying treatment for celiac disease. https://anokion.com/press_releases/anokion-announces-positive-symptom-data-from-its-phase-2-trial-evaluating-kan-101-for-the-treatment-of-celiac-disease/

      Still unsure.....

      Thiamine interacts with all the other B vitamins.  Thiamine and B 6 make a very important enzyme together. With more thiamine and other vitamins available from the supplements your body is absorbing the ones you need more of.  The body can control which vitamins to absorb or not.  You're absorbing more and it's being transported through the blood.   It's common to have both a Thiamine and a Pyridoxine deficiency.  Keep taking the B Complex. This is why it's best to stop taking supplements for six to eight weeks before testing vitamin levels.

      Yes I took a supplement that had B6 in it, low dosage though. I've stopped taking that. B1 doesn't affect other B vitamin levels?
