I have all my flours in one of those three drawer rolling carts in my kitchen. It works nice for me!

Some people organize like this

I know someone who uses the (Gladware?) stackable, disposable containers and labels them like those in the photo. The containers that one of the lunch meats(Hillshire farms?) comes in has a lid and is re-usable and is just the right size for the bags of tapioca starch that I buy.

My storage looks exactly like that picture. I even use lock and lock. I have 95% of my stuff in the fridge in the garage and the rest in the freezer in the garage. I just write directly on the container with a sharpie. As you know, when I want to make a batch of cookies, it takes me 2 or 3 trips to the fridge.

I use the lock and lock storage containers for my flours and write directly on them with a sharpy as well. I have a second fridge down stairs so I store my flours in there.

I like using the Lock'n'Lock containers that are about the same size as the flour bags. I keep them in the door of my big freezer since almost all of them say it is best to keep them refrigerated.

The ones that I use mixed together most frequently I keep premixed together in a larger container.

when I know I'm going to use them soon enough to no thave to freeze them, I just throw the bags themselve sinto a ginormous locknlock to keep the moth weevils out.

I keep my flours in quart or gallon ziploc bags in our extra refrigerator. I label them with the date and type of flour. It's inexpensive and saves space. I keep the ziploc bags of flour in a grocery bag so I can grab everything at once if I'm baking.

      Let me hasten to add that if you will be undergoing an endoscopy/biopsy, it is critical that you do not begin efforts to reduce gluten beforehand. Doing so will render the results invalid as it will allow the small bowel lining to heal and, therefore, obscure the damage done by celiac disease which is what the biopsy is looking for.

      That’s a really tough situation. A few key points: as mentioned, a gluten challenge does require daily gluten for several weeks to make blood tests meaningful, but negative tests after limited exposure aren’t reliable. Dermatitis herpetiformis can also be tricky to diagnose unless the biopsy is taken from normal-looking skin next to a lesion. Some people with celiac or DH don’t react every time they’re exposed, so lack of symptoms doesn’t rule it out. Given your history and family cancer risk, this is something I’d strongly discuss with a celiac-experienced gastroenterologist or dermatologist before attempting a challenge on your own, so risks and benefits are clearly weighed.

      https://celiac.org/glutenexposuremarkers/    yes, two hours after accidents ingesting gluten I am vomiting and then diarrhea- then exhaustion and a headache. see the article above- There is research that shows our reactions.

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.
