Need Bread Taste Help


SweetAmber32

Recommended Posts

I tried that bread receipe (by Laurie- Lorka) mentioned in Mamatides topic. It turned out fine. My parents tried it and my dad said it reminds him of Rye bread. And believe you me, that's a compliment. But the only problem I had with it is the taste. Not that it's bad. I have taste buds that are enlarged, so there can be foods that taste different to me, they are very sensitive. I think that what may be so strong tasting to me is the flax seed meal...but i may be wrong. But with this receipe, what can I add that might....maybe sweeten it? Not too sweet though.

Hopefully Laurie will answer your question as she is th eauthor. I do know this bread is pretty forgiving. I have used anything I have on hand to make this & it is always very good. I make htis when Ihav elittle bits of different flours leftover & not enough to do anything else with it.... Maybe try teff.

What flours did you use? Sorghum adds a little sweetness. We have to be a little careful with adding more sweeteners to yeast recipes. Generally sugar feeds the yeast and salt inhibits the growth so it is important to keep the right ratio. That's what I learned in my pre-gluten-free bread baking days anyway. I can't tolerate much flax so I sometimes omit it or substitute a nut meal made in my food processor. Walnuts are good. Almond would be sweeter.

Thanks for the compliments on my avatar. I've had cats do that too.

BTW Missy'sMom, I used the sorghum in place of the garfava flower and the bread turned out beautiful. And better tasting.

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
