Could somebody please tell me if and where I can get Pita Pockets? Oh I do miss my cold or hot chicken and garden salad sandwiches! :unsure:

Canadian source would be great, however I would go to the moon for a good Pita! :rolleyes:

Thanks in advance!

Not sure why, but this disappeared from the page?? I had to do a search to find it. Can someone tell my why?

New to the board! :blink:

Thanks!

Yes--it disappeared because it wasn't pinned. That means that a moderator hadn't seen it yet, verified that it was a valid post, and thus, moved it to the front of the forum. I have just pinned it, so it's now at the front of the foods, products, shopping, and medications section.

I wish, I was just thinking how good chicken salad in a pita pocket would be.

Now you see my dilemma.... :blink: We used to broil or BBQ chicken breast, slice it still warm, then top with garden salad and a ranch dressing... it was also awesome with leftover taco beef!! Oh, my kingdom for a Pita Pocket... :rolleyes:

I haven't found any pita pockets (used to live on them) but I did invest

in an electric tortilla maker - Villaware (I'm allergic to yeast too, so no bread). Since I have a ton of other food allergies I'm limited in the flour area. So, a mixture of tapioca, quinoa, and potato flours with flax meal instead of shortening has turned out pretty good. Rice flour tends to get rubbery. It's not as convenient

as the pocket but works for me and it's pretty easy to do.

:P

Does anyone have any pita recipes? I love hummus and would like a pita-like bread to eat it with. Thanks!

FOUND IT!!! i needed a easy gluten-free bread to take for lunch and i found a recipe...sorry its not already made. the site is:

Open Original Shared Link

the recipe is:

Ingredients:Serves: 6-8

1 1/3 cups cornstarch

1 cup tapioca starch or 1 cup tapioca flour

2/3 cup garbanzo flour or 2/3 cup garfava flour

1/3 cup sorghum flour

2 tablespoons sugar

1 tablespoon xanthan gum

2 1/4 teaspoons quick-rising yeast

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 1/4 cups warm water

Directions:

1 Combine dry ingredients in large mixing bowl and set aside.

2 Pour warm water into automatic bread maker pan and add dry ingredients; set machine to dough setting and turn on. Use spatula as necessary to scrape sides and incorporate evenly - dough will be soft and sticky.

3 Knead for only 5 minutes; remove from pan and divide into six to eight balls of dough; cover.

4 Using a rolling pin and board heavily covered with corn starch, very lightly stretch one dough ball into a circle about 6" in diameter and 1/4" thick. The dough will be sticky, but light hands and a generous dusting of corn starch will yield chewy and crusty (not tough) pitas.

5 Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet sprinkled with corn meal or gluten-free flour. Cover cookie sheet with waxed paper to keep pitas from drying out.

6 Repeat rolling of each ball of dough; allow to rise in a warm place for about 30-40 minutes.

7 Preheat oven to 450

I recently ordered some pita pockets from glutenfreepalace.com. I ordered the pita pockets which were heaven mill brand. They are very good, but I am having trouble getting them open... I have never used these before and I am not sure I am doing it correctly. I also ordered the schars rolls and bread... these are very good products, the best I have found in gluten free. I hope you order some and enjoy them. Oh, freeze the pita pockets as soon as you get them. They will mold quickly if you dont.

Some people get mad when they don't get a response from the OP. Then they PM me and tell me how rude everyone is for not thanking them or answering them. :D

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      @Scott Adams That's actually exactly what I ended up asking for— vodka tonic with Titos.  I saw on their website that Tito's is certified gluten-free (maybe many of the clear vodkas are, I don't know, I just happened to look up Tito's in advance). I should have actually specified the 'splash' though, because I think with the amount of tonic she put in there, it did still end up fairly sweet.  Anyway, I think I've almost got this drink order down!

      Be interesting to see the effects of dairy reintroduction with gluten. As well as milk protein sensitivity in and of itself the casein part particularly has been shown to mimic gluten in about 50% of celiacs. Keep us posted!

      She has been dairy free for six years, so she’d already been dairy free for two years at her last testing and was dairy free for the entire gluten challenge this year as well (that had positive results). However, now that we’re doing another biopsy in six weeks, we decided to do everything we can to try to “see” the effects, so we decided this past week to add back in dairy temporarily for breakfast (milk and cereal combo like you said).

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Gigi2025 · Posted

      Hi Christiana, Many thanks for your response.  Interestingly, I too cannot eat wheat in France without feeling effects (much less than in the US, but won't indulge nonetheless).  I also understand children are screened for celiac in Italy prior to starting their education. Wise idea as it seems my grandson has the beginning symptoms (several celiacs in his dad's family), but parents continue to think he's just being difficult.  Argh.  There's a test I took that diagnosed gluten sensitivity in 2014 via Entero Labs, and am planning on having done again.  Truth be told, I'm hoping it's the bromine/additives/preservatives as I miss breads and pastas terribly when home here in the states!  Be well and here's to our guts healing ❤️

      Lol that’s so true! Hope you get clarity, it’s tough when there’s doubt. There’s so much known about celiac disease with all the scientific research that’s been done so far yet practically and clinically there’s also so much unknown, still. Out of curiosity what’s her dairy consumption like? Even compared to early years to now? Has that changed? Calcium is dependent in the mechanism of antigen presenting cells in the gut. High calcium foods with gluten grains can initiate inflammation greater.  This is why breakfast cereals and milk combo long term can be a ticking time bomb for genetically susceptible celiacs (not a scientific statement by any means but my current personal opinion based on reasoning at present). Milk and wheat are the top culprits for food sensitivity. Especially in childhood. There are also patient cases of antibodies normalising in celiac children who had milk protein intolerance/ delayed type allergy. Some asymptomatic. There were a couple of cases of suspected celiacs that turned out to have milk protein intolerance that normalised antibodies on a gluten containing diet. Then there were others that only normalised antibodies once gluten and milk was eliminated. Milk kept the antibodies positive. Celiac disease is complicated to say the least.
