Bad Recipe Or Bad Cook?

I'm searching for a good gluten-free bread recipe, because I'm starting to miss sandwiches. I tried making a corn-based version the other night and I don't know if it came out right or not. When I cut into my loaf it was a pale brown color. Very dense yet springy and spongey at the same time. It was very unpleasant. Did I do something wrong? Any advice would be much appreciated.

THANK YOU!!! Now, that is what bread is supposed to look like. I'll give the recipe a try this week. :)

Any translation for "Sure Jell"??

It's a brand of plain, unflavored gelatin.

I never thought I'd eat fluffy white bread again before this!

Are you sure? I thought it was pectin for helping jellies and jams to thicken.

In any case, don't be surprised if you have just begun baking gluten-free breads and they are nothing like what you remember. I have been doing this for over 4 years and still don't get decent bread every time - even with recipes I have successfully used before it's a crapshoot. Be prepared to keep trying, and check this board for help because a lot of us have tried many, many bread variations with different degrees of success. You can see successful loaves in my avatar, but the ones I made the time after I took that picture were a dismal failure shape-wise (but at least they made great crumbs and croutons).

Open Original Shared Link is a powdered pectin used for making jams and jellies.

Sure-Jell sounds a lot like a low-methoxyl citrus pectin I've used, called Open Original Shared Link.

I still have some too. Maybe I should try it in bread and see what it does.

My bread is made from Bob's Red Mill gluten-free Mix, the white one. I make two at a time and use a smaller pans so that I get four little loaves from each one, for a total of 8------and they last me quite some time. I bake them for 20 mintes. I have never had a flop. They are kind of expensive, but I am worth it. It smells so good when it comes from the oven. I am a carbaholic and so bread is very important to me. I still miss crunchy bread like French or Itilian, wish I could find that. Bob's Red Mill makes a great pizza crust mix too. It makes two 12" crusts and it sure is good. I am very used to the gluten-free way of life, and although I do miss some things, it just doesn't bother me that much anymore.

Hi Eeyore,

Do you know if it is necessary to use the 1/4 cup of brown sugar as listed in the wet ingredients? I was thinking that would make a sweet bread - which I don't want.

You can likely leave out the sugar. Some yeast bread recipes use a pinch of sugar to get the yeast started, but even that isn't totally necessary.

Here is a good link- for french bread- I like this recipe and it's really easy. She just put up a sandwich loaf, too, I think I will try tomorrow.

Sticky rice flour? Is that sweet rice flour?

Open Original Shared Link is what is being referred to, I think.

Yes - glutinous rice flour

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.
