Garlic Toast!

So here's what I did. I cheated. I bought a baguette from the gluten-free brand Against the Grain, which I've had once before and scored a 6 out of 10. So I figured I'd try treating it like French bread and sliced it lengthwise into a few pieces, then used the recipe from Allrecipes for roasted garlic bread. Basically, you just roast a head of garlic and mix it with melted butter and whatever seasonings you like, parsley or parmesan or salt. To roast the garlic I took scissors and nipped the tips off each clove and drizzled with a bit of olive oil, roast for a half hour or so at 350. Then I spread the mix over the pieces of bread, toasted (not broiled like with gluten bread) in a pan, and voila! My first real garlic toast in three years!!!!!! This time the baguette scored a 10 out of 10, not sure what I did wrong last time, but it was soft in the middle and crispy-chewy on the outside. This bread behaves better cut lengthwise because it's full of holes. Slices don't work out too well.

Just thought I'd share my success, garlic toast was like the Holy Grail of gluten freeness to me, so I'm going to be in a very good mood for quite some time to come....

And I have another baguette in the freezer.... Yippee!!!! Just need more garlic...

Congrats! In a pinch, I've resorted to toasting half a gluten-free bagel (I actually like the enjoy life ones, or kinnikinnick or glutino) with some margarine and garlic! It was pretty good, but your recipe sounds better :lol:

I have tried it with the Kinnikinnick cheese tapioca rice bread and softened some butter in the microwave and mixed garlic with it and toasted it with some parmesan. It's pretty good too.

I think it might have been so good partly because of the crispy effect the baguette had. I highly recommend the Against the Grain brand. They make bagels, but they taste just like the baguettes. I'll be trying it again soon with the best gluten-free white bread I've ever had, Aleia's. There's a restaurant in Old Saybrook Ct (I live in CT) called Aleia's, which started making gluten free stuff, like bread and pizza and cookies. Their stuff got real popular and now I can get it at health food stores around the state, fresh, even. The bread is incredible. Little too sweet is my only complaint, but I'm more sensitive to sweet flavors than most. I actually got to soften some butter and have a piece of buttered bread WITHOUT TOASTING IT FIRST. That was a milestone. Also makes very good toaster oven pizza, you know, like Ellio's?

Yeah, and there's always olive oil for the dairy impaired!

Oh, you live in Ct? That's neat. Yeah, they make really awesome food, I've only been there once so far. I got the gluten-free pizza. I really liked it, but they use too much sauce, and I prefer a thick crust pizza. Next time I'm getting the gluten-free fried fish. I know. Fried fish. They bring you their bread toasted for your bread before the meal, and they brought me a couple cookies at the end of the meal. The cookies are good, they're the crispy kind. The service is fabulous. I actually learned yesterday that the restaurant is only open three days a week because they've been so busy during the week baking all the gluten-free stuff to send out! The lady was all apologetic and I'm like, No! It's ok! I have a five minute drive to my local health food store where I can get your bread fresh, I'm not complaining, I'll wait til thursday!

There's also a movie theater and some nice shopping about five minutes away from the restaurant, so it's easy to make a day trip of it. They're open for dinner only Thurs Fri Sat.

That sounds soooo good!!! The closest I game to garlic bread (without trying lol) is spreading some garlic that was crushed in a food processor and fried in butter and spreading that over a piece of Kinnikinnick's white bread (that's the only gluten-free bread I eat). It was quite good, could taste more garlic than anything...though I think next time if I do that, I'll throw it in the toaster oven (oh wait, I just remembered ours as home doesnt work!!). Someday hehe. And as us Ukrainians say, you can never have too much garlic :lol:

I've used the Kinnikinnick hot dog buns, spread on soft butter and garlic salt and pop under the broiler... yum! Closest thing to my much-missed Coles garlid bread.

Oh, that's a good idea, I thought those buns were too thick and heavy for hot dogs, but they'd make great garlic toast.

      Gluten-Free Diet Linked to Reduced Inflammation and Improved Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis (+Video)

      I worried at one point on my journey whether I had MS, having many of the symptoms myself. However, my symptoms improved dramatically with high dose thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and Thiamine TTFD. Thiamine deficiency symptoms overlap with MS symptoms, including changes on brain MRIs. Thiamine deficiency affected my eyes (light sensitivity),...

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias!

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
