My wife and I eat at the Twisted Fork in the Triangle Town Center for our anniversary. We went for their mid-week special, which is dinner for two. You get to chose from soup or salad, a number of entr

Thanks for your post. I haven't been to the Twisted Fork yet. There were so many mixed reviews when they first opened that we just never went. BUUTTT... now that I know they are gluten-free friendly.... I might give them a try.

Did they have a printout or did the server ask the chef and then give you a list from there? Just wanted an idea if we ever make it there.

I believe the same group owns Michael Dean's and 1705 Prime. Michael Dean's is right by my house. I tried to find a gluten-free menu online for them, I think I even emailed them and never heard back. But I can't swear to that. <_<

They did not have a gluten free menu, but I know what is fairly safe to look at and then the server asked the cook to make sure. They make everything in house so they know what goes into the food. They do own a few other places. Michael deans, bogarts, red room and and 1705 prime. I have only tried the Fork so can not speak for the other places. However, the corporate people I e-mailed were very helpful and gave me the e-mail of the manager and chef to get any specific questions answered. That is much better than most places.

We enjoyed the food and there was a great variety. They also told us the menu changes often and would be updated in a couple of weeks. If you do try it or michael deans out let me know what you think.

      New Study Finds 1 in 10 Celiac Patients May Have Additional Autoimmune Disorders (+Video)

      Kinda glad I read this and some related materials. My celiac symptoms seem mild and I sometimes question if the hassle of the gluten-free diet/lifestyle is worth it for mild symptoms. This is one of the answers to that. gluten-free diet can delay onset/progression of autoimmune polyglandular syndrome, but cannot reverse it.

      makes sense. sometimes you learn one path and never question it until you see someone take a different path

      Interesting I read that toasted kasha groats have nutty flavor which I thought like oatmeal with banana and yogurt. Yes quinoa I have for dinner looking to switch oatmeal to buckwheat for breakfast. I have to look into amaranth

      I've never tried bananas or yogurt with kasha. It would probably work but in my mind I think of kasha as being on the savory side so I always add butter, peanut butter, or shredded cheddar cheese. Next time I make it I will try yogurt and banana to see for myself. Amaranth has a touch of sweet and I like to pair it with fruit. Quinoa is more neutral. I eat...

      The basic seems more like oatmeal. You can also add yogurt banana to it like oatmeal right. I see rinsing as first step in basic recipes like this one https://busycooks.com/how-to-cook-toasted-buckwheat-groats-kasha/ I don't understand why since kasha is toasted and not raw. What about buckwheat flake cereal or is this better to go with.

      I've never tried bananas or yogurt with kasha. It would probably work but in my mind I think of kasha as being on the savory side so I always add butter, peanut butter, or shredded cheddar cheese. Next time I make it I will try yogurt and banana to see for myself. Amaranth has a touch of sweet and I like to pair it with fruit. Quinoa is more neutral. I eat it plain, like rice, with chicken stock or other savory things, or with coconut milk. Since coconut milk works, I would think yogurt would work (with the quinoa). I went to the link you posted. I really don't know why they rinse the kasha. I've eaten it for decades and never rinsed it. Other than that, her recipe seems fine (that is, add the buckwheat with the water, rather than wait until the water is boiling). She does say something that I forgot: you want to get roasted/toasted buckwheat or you will need to toast it yourself. I've never tried buckwheat flakes. One potential issue with flakes is that there are more processing steps and as a rule of thumb, every processing step is another opportunity for cross-contamination. I have tried something that was a finer grind of the buckwheat than the whole/coarse and I didn't like it as much. But, maybe that was simply because it wasn't "normal" to me, I don't know.

      Pain in the right side of abdomen

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Celiac disease can have neurological associations, but the better-described ones include gluten ataxia, peripheral neuropathy, headaches or migraine, seizures, cognitive symptoms, and, rarely, cerebral calcifications or white-matter changes. Some studies and case reports describe brain white-matter lesions in people with celiac disease, but these are not specific to celiac disease and can have many other explanations. A frontal lobe lesion could mean many different things depending on the exact wording of the report: a white-matter spot, inflammation, demyelination, a small old stroke, migraine-related change, infection, trauma, vascular change, seizure-related change, tumor-like lesion, artifact, or something that resolved on repeat imaging. The word “transient” usually means it changed or disappeared, which can happen with some inflammatory, seizure-related, migraine-related, vascular, or imaging-artifact situations.  Hopefully they will find nothing serious.
