Rice Replacement

Hi,

We can't use rice and it seems to be in many many of the receipes I am seeing. What would you use to replace it? We also need to avoid all nut and bean flours.

Thanks,

How about tapioca, sorghum, corn, buckwheat, amaranth, arrowroot, coconut, and quinoa? You might have to experiment a bit to get the right combo for the recipe.

BTW - Chebe bread mix is rice and nut free.

I second the Chebe. It's all tapioca and lovely lovely bread. In terms of a replacement for rice, I would think teff or millet would be the closest match to white rice flower. Quinona would be another good choice.

I am not crazy about rice flour so I mainly use the sorghum mix

1 1/2 cups sorghum

1 1/2 cups potato starch or corn starch

1 cup tapioca flour

How about coconut flour?

I use the same mix as Purple uses. :) My daughter was intolerant to rice for a few years. I made a lot of quinoa as a replacement. It is awesome cooked with some broth and sauteed veggies.

As for pasta you can buy corn and quinoa. Walmart has corn spaghetti and its good. Here is a good bread recipe w/o those flours you can't have. Its really good and easy. I make it every week.

quinoi or teff work well, but usually in combination with something like sorghum or tapioca or potato. they have really good protein and micronutrient content--much better than rice, actually. white bean flour is nice. (I find the garbonzo or fava flours taste is too strong). if you try coconut flour-do NOT use more than 5- 10% of total flour in your recipe. it is way high in fiber and will dry it out/soak up all the moisture and will taste gross!!

Thanks for all the replies,

I tried a Chebe mix and it was very chewy don't know what I did wrong. Thanks for the advice on which flours work well together - I hadn't heard of coconut before that sounds yummy. I think I will try quinoa next.

Thanks again!

Ask for advice before subbing coconut for anything, it behaves very differently than the other flours. You can sub sorghum flour one for one with rice.

      Yeah, that one is always hard, especially since life seems to revolve around food. That happened to me 2 weeks ago with hibachi and with Hungarian hot dogs. I used to be more picky, but now I would love to try all the things if I could. On the bright side, my husband is absolutely wonderful with it, and his mom often brings a few certified gluten-free things to family get-togethers just for me (and tries to make sure main dishes are safe too). Having the people closest to you be supportive can make a huge difference.

      I hear you. My extended family is very good about factoring in my celiac disease safety needs when making family celebration meal plans but sometimes it breaks down in the spur of the moment decisions to "Oh, let's go out and get some teriyaki" or the like. Especially when my brother in law comes into town 'cause he's pretty particular about what he likes to eat. So, sometimes I just say, "You guys go ahead without me. I'll find some leftovers." But, still, I admit to feeling a little left out at such times and a little like a 5th wheel.

      Same, and I appreciate your comments. I just needed to get it off my chest. Sometimes, even when its a genuine mistake, it can feel all too hurtful and I didn't want to go back to work tomorrow still in my feelings.

      Yes, probably slipped his mind. Grace is in order here is my thought.

      I should have added that, while I dont have access during the meetings, I do as soon as I leave them (same for him) so I would have seen before I even left work. He has my number since we've needed to coordinate by cell a few times for work and other stuff. I usually have a protein bar or two in my desk for emergencies so I could have grabbed one of those and gone to meet them at the right restaurant.  Someone else decided on the change of restaurant and it must have slipped his mind that I wasn't coming back to my desk.
