Easter Dinner Questions?

Recommended Posts

okgrace Apprentice

Hi all,

I've been poking around this wonderful website for a couple days and left a post about a potty training regression my four year old is going through under the doctor thread, but essentially I am really new to all this. I am the mother of a 4 year old girl who needs to be gluten free, a husband who is gluten-free also, and now I am begining to suspect that i also nbeed to stay off the gluten. The dilema of the day is; Will gluten free beer be ok to marinate a ham in for Easter Dinner?

I haven't looked at the product myself and I am a bit confused how fermentation is bad in some situations but not in others. I assume this beer is fermented, right. Wouldn't it need to be to be an alcoholic bev?

I love this site, I am just begining to realize the severity of my daughters allergy. We have gluten-free since about december. Something is bothering her and after reading all your posts I am discovering that environment is as important as what is ingested. Thanks for the great site!

Kristan :)

There are gluten free beers that will be just fine....Redbridge by Budweiser is a newer one and fairly easy to find in some regions.

Aside from never hearing about merinating a Ham, gluten free beer such as Red Bridge is fine.

Maybe it's not called merinating. I am not much of a cook and have never cooked a ham, turkey, etc. that's what Hubby and mom's are for. Since my family has become gluten-free I have been working less and making a big effort to cook whole foods (rice, lentils, millet, etc. ). One of my goals is to cook a whole bird right off.

Thanks for the info on the beer. Can anyone out there explain why fermentation and yeast can be a prob for people who are gluten-free?

I'm not sure if it is the fermentation and yeast that you have to worry about with Celiac (unless that is a different food problem you may have). Regular beer contains gluten because of the ingredients (usually barley and wheat, I think) but the gluten-free beer is made of sorghum instead so there's no gluten. Redbridge is quite good, it reminds me of Sam Adams.

Yes, it is the barley that almost all beers are malted from that is the issue. Fermentation, per se, is not a concern, but the concern is just what you ferment.

      Thanks, jmartes, for answering the question. You believe you still have active Celiac Disease. Right? You wrote that you are WHEAT free. Are you also BARLEY free and RYE free?I am asking this because to have an active reaction you must be putting gluten  into your body, There are a few other foods that may cause some autoantibody production. Ask KnittyKitty about this. In 2007 you had more food issues. Many Celiacs have this development and I think it is because while they hadthe active celiac disease and damage to their small intestine food allergies were caused because of the damage  while you had the active disease and not identified until years later. It is necessary to eliminate those foods from your diet. Scott Adams wrote that some people can start eating those foods after their intestine has healed. I have not been able to add any foods I react to back to my diet.

      NOOOOOO NO NOOOO I was 23 years old.i have Not eaten wheat sense diagnosed in 1994.Been reading labels ever sense and in 2007 found more food issues. Menopause has changed my body completely and asking for help has turned into a medical NIGHTMARE. Wondering why my skin and eyes are having issues. Is all on me learning because blood work fine.Yet again for some reason not acknowledging my digestive issues ive given copies of.As stated in pervious post I was given breath test which I was positive with that dr and prior to him a few months, still wanted me to do.

      Hi jmartes, In 1994, when you were in your 30s you were diagnosed with Celiac Disease at Kaiser. You went on a gluten free diet and still avoid eating wheat, barley and Rye. It seems that you recovered and you no longer have active Celiac Disease at age 54. If you started eating the gluten grains again you might again get back the symptoms and problems you had when you were in your 30s. The only cure for Celiac Disease is being strictly gluten free.  Your medical providers are correct in telling  you that you do not have active Celiac Disease. Do you understand that? You may have some other developing health problems and I can write  more if you  answer the question.                         the only cure for celiac disease is being  gluten gree.

      Celiac is too common to be "rare" under the standard definition. Does this group do anything with Celiac?
