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.

      Your Complete Gluten-Free Thanksgiving Plan: Recipes, Tips & Holiday Favorites

      Wow what a helpful article!! I am just seeing this now but I hosted a small group of family for Thanksgiving at my house this year and I did some of these things- got a butterball gluten-free turkey, got gluten-free stuffing, had a few gluten-free sides, and a gluten-free nothing-Bundt-cake. I had other non gluten-free things there too for others, and I also...

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      Thanks for responding. I researched further and Lindt Lindor chocolate balls do contain barely malt powder which contains gluten. I was surprised at all of the conflicting information I found when I checked online.

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      @BlessedinBoston, it is possible that in Canada the product in question is formulated differently than in the USA or at least processed in in a facility that precludes cross contamination. I assume from your user name that you are in the USA. And it is also possible that the product meets the FDA requirement of not more than 20ppm of gluten but you are a...

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      No,Lindt is not gluten free no matter what they say on their website. I found out the hard way when I was newly diagnosed in 2000. At that time the Lindt truffles were just becoming popular and were only sold in small specialty shops at the mall. You couldn't buy them in any stores like today and I was obsessed with them 😁. Took me a while to get around to...

And it is also possible that the product meets the FDA requirement of not more than 20ppm of gluten but you are a super sensitive celiac for whom that standard is insufficient.

At that time the Lindt truffles were just becoming popular and were only sold in small specialty shops at the mall. You couldn't buy them in any stores like today and I was obsessed with them 😁. Took me a while to get around to checking them and was heartbroken when I saw they were absolutely not gluten free 😔. Felt the same when I realized Twizzlers weren't either. Took me a while to get my diet on order after being diagnosed. I was diagnosed with small bowel non Hodgkins lymphoma at the same time. So it was a very stressful time to say the least. Hope this helps 😁.

      @Jmartes71, I understand your frustration and anger.  I've been in a similar situation where no doctor took me seriously, accused me of making things up, and eventually sent me home to suffer alone.   My doctors did not recognize nutritional deficiencies.  Doctors are trained in medical learning institutions that are funded by pharmaceutical companies.  They are taught which medications cover up which symptoms.  Doctors are required to take twenty  hours of nutritional education in seven years of medical training.  (They can earn nine hours in Nutrition by taking a three day weekend seminar.)  They are taught nutritional deficiencies are passe' and don't happen in our well fed Western society any more.  In Celiac Disease, the autoimmune response and inflammation affects the absorption of ALL the essential vitamins and minerals.  Correcting nutritional deficiencies caused by malabsorption is essential!  I begged my doctor to check my Vitamin D level, which he did only after making sure my insurance would cover it.  When my Vitamin D came back extremely low, my doctor was very surprised, but refused to test for further nutritional deficiencies because he "couldn't make money prescribing vitamins.". I believe it was beyond his knowledge, so he blamed me for making stuff up, and stormed out of the exam room.  I had studied Nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology.  I switched because I was curious what vitamins from our food were doing in our bodies.  Vitamins are substances that our bodies cannot manufacture, so we must ingest them every day.  Without them, our bodies cannot manufacture life sustaining enzymes and we sicken and die.   At home alone, I could feel myself dying.  It's an unnerving feeling, to say the least, and, so, with nothing left to lose, I relied in my education in nutrition.  My symptoms of Thiamine deficiency were the worst, so I began taking high dose Thiamine.  I had health improvement within an hour.  It was magical.  I continued taking high dose thiamine with a B Complex, magnesium. and other essential nutrients.  The health improvements continued for months.  High doses of thiamine are required to correct a thiamine deficiency because thiamine affects every cell and mitochondria in our bodies.    A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function.  The cerebellum of the brain is most affected.  The cerebellum controls things we don't have to consciously have to think about, like digestion, balance, breathing, blood pressure, heart rate, hormone regulation, and many more.  Thiamine is absorbed from the digestive tract and sent to the most important organs like the brain and the heart.  This leaves the digestive tract depleted of Thiamine and symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a thiamine deficiency localized in the digestive system, begin to appear.  Symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi include anxiety, depression, chronic fatigue, headaches, Gerd, acid reflux, gas, slow stomach emptying, gastroparesis, bloating, diarrhea and/or constipation, incontinence, abdominal pain, IBS,  SIBO, POTS, high blood pressure, heart rate changes like tachycardia, difficulty swallowing, Barrett's Esophagus, peripheral neuropathy, and more. Doctors are only taught about thiamine deficiency in alcoholism and look for the classic triad of symptoms (changes in gait, mental function, and nystagmus) but fail to realize that gastrointestinal symptoms can precede these symptoms by months.  All three classic triad of symptoms only appear in fifteen percent of patients, with most patients being diagnosed with thiamine deficiency post mortem.  I had all three but swore I didn't drink, so I was dismissed as "crazy" and sent home to die basically.   Yes, I understand how frustrating no answers from doctors can be.  I took OTC Thiamine Hydrochloride, and later thiamine in the forms TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and Benfotiamine to correct my thiamine deficiency.  I also took magnesium, needed by thiamine to make those life sustaining enzymes.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins, so the other B vitamins must be supplemented as well.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.   A doctor can administer high dose thiamine by IV along with the other B vitamins.  Again, Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine should be given if only to rule Gastrointestinal Beriberi out as a cause of your symptoms.  If no improvement, no harm is done. Share the following link with your doctors.  Section Three is especially informative.  They need to be expand their knowledge about Thiamine and nutrition in Celiac Disease.  Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test for thiamine deficiency.  This test is more reliable than a blood test. Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling.  https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Best wishes!
