Roben Ryberg Pizza?

My wife got me a big gluten-free cookbook by Roben Ryberg. Last night I made the corn/rice version of his pizza crust. After I stuck it in the oven I realized that I forgot the 1 TB of vinegar. The crust was very bad. Should I give it another try? Would the vinegar made much difference in the texture or taste? I have been using either Annalise Robert's or Carol Fenster's crust recipe and I like both. Last night I ate a couple pieces, but then just picked the toppings off (sliced fresh tomato, fresh mozzarella and some pearl onions, romano cheese, yum) and ate them plain.

Walt--

I've made this many times....making it tonight, as a matter of fact :D

You said "corn and rice" recipe.....the only one I know about is the cornstarch and potato starch recipe. If you did use rice flour in place of the potato strch, I can see that it would come out wrong--probably more like cardboard.

Is that what happened, or did you just leave out the vinegar? I don't think that would make too much of a difference.

Yep, I checked and it was the corn/rice version. It is in a book titled "You won't believe it's Gluten Free". Perhaps I will try the version you use and remember to put in the vinegar. I have been hesitant to try anything else from this book because I hate throwing food out. Perhaps I'll try the applesauce bread this weekend and see what happens.

Walt,

I have this book, and as a brand new Celiac I have to say I love it (even more than the Bette Hagman book I bought at the same time!).

I've made several of the baked goods recipes and have been very satisfied. I have not yet tried the pizza dough one you made.

HOWEVER - keep in mind that if the recipe has baking soda in it, and calls for vinegar, omitting the vinegar is not good.

Ever make baking soda and vinegar 'volcanoes' as a kid? If not, try it now, and you'll get what I'm saying.

The baking soda and the vinegar cause a chemical reaction with one another, and if you don't use both in your recipe (when called for) then the reaction never takes place and you get........glue? ;)

I would encourage you to give it another try, following the recipe explicitly, and see if you like it a little better.

ETA: I just checked those particular recipes, and they do have baking soda and vinegar in them........so I'll bet that's the problem. :)

anything with 'pizza' in the title still catches my eye!!! :lol:

sorry you didn't have luck Walt. Crossing my fingers you'll have better luck next time.

:)

You know I wish Amy's had frozen pizza crusts (rice flour ones) that you could buy and top as you please.

Especially with everyone having their own unique intolerances. She has by far the best gluten free crusts.

sending happy baking!

I love, love, love, using Kinnikinnick's frozen pizza crusts. They are gluten and casein free.

Chebe also makes an excellent pizza crust mix. It is super easy to make and very versatile.

I made the corn/rice version for the first time tonight and it came out very nicely. The crust was pleasant tasting with good texture to it. My non gluten-free husband thought it was really good.

Give it another try with the vineagar--it must have made a big difference.

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?

      thank you for your advice. I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated. I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

      I am new here but celiac disease is not new to me. I was diagnosed with it at age 60. At the time I weighed a whopping 89 pounds. I was so ignorant to celiac so I buried myself in learning all about it and looking for food I could eat. I lost so much weight and stayed sick all the time. So to combat the sickness I was give all sorts of meds for loose bowels...

I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      I am new here but celiac disease is not new to me. I was diagnosed with it at age 60. At the time I weighed a whopping 89 pounds. I was so ignorant to celiac so I buried myself in learning all about it and looking for food I could eat. I lost so much weight and stayed sick all the time. So to combat the sickness I was give all sorts of meds for loose bowels and vomiting. All that just made me sicker. Eventually I chucked it all and went back to eating like I had all my life. Now I am from the south and biscuits and gravy are a big part of our food, as are breaded foods, pasta, and sandwich bread. Through the years I would try to do the gluten free thing again and am doing it now. It has not helped any. Within and hour of eating I have to run to the bathroom. I am now 75 and am wondering if I should just forget it and eat what I like, take Immodium and live the best I can. I cannot eat before going anywhere for fear of embarrassing myself. Family and church dinners are out of the question unless I eat and run straight home. I am so frustrated I just want to sit down and cry or throw something. Does everyone go through all this?
