Hi

Here in norway there is no real glutenfree bread, most of the bread contains wheat starch.

I have found out that I can order bread from Ener-G.

Ener-G High Fibre White Loaf

Ener-G Flax Loaf

Ener-G Raisin Loaf

Ener-G Rice Loaf (Yeast Free)

Ener-G Six Flour Loaf

Ener-g Tapioca Bread gluten Free

Does some if this bread taste good? Or ar they very "dry" and fall apart?

I like the tapioca bread out of all of those. It does tend to be a bit dry, but I find that toasting it or microwaving it slightly helps with that. Then I add lots of butter or other condiments. The good news is, it travels very well.

Ugh, Ener-G bread is pretty awful, unless you like sawdust and bricks :P

You might look into Enjoy Life bread or even Glutino. They are marginally better.

On the Karina's Kitchen weblog, she has a recipe for bread that is very easy - it is one of the latest blogs on her site. (Sorry I don't have the link - blogs are blocked here at work). I made it the other day, subbed flax, buckwheat, and amaranth for the millet flour (which I didn't have). It made a nice ciabbata style bread in an 8-inch cake pan. It tasted great and has stayed nice and moist for three days. I used it for a sandwich on the second day and it was very good!

I also like Chebe products if you can find them. They make a nice chewy bread.

Other than that, I have lost most of my taste for bread products which amazes me because I loved bread in the past. I really don't miss it now, but do like the occasional treat.

They make some that my daughter prefers but they're not on that list. Of those listed, she does like the tapioca. To serve it, she likes it put in the microwave until it is very hot to the touch. Makes it much softer.

Tapicoca Bread is the best, but it must be toasted.

If you're going to mail-order something from the states, I'd strongly recommend a bread mix rather than a loaf of bread. Or a recipe, if you don't want to order mixes.

Gluten-free bread is actually EASIER to make than gluten bread. It's not any harder than making a cake, or cookies. All you really need is a good sturdy mixer. I use a Bosch, which I'm sure you can get over there. It's made in Germany, I believe. I love-love-love it.

I've been relying pretty heavily on the Bob's Red Mill Wonderful Homemade Bread Mix. I have some in the oven right now, in fact.

I have yet to find a store-bought bread that's worth eating, let alone spending $4+ per loaf for.

The Bob's Red Mill mix costs between $4 and $5, and it makes me 2 loaves of bread (my bread pans are slightly smaller than the one recommended on the package, so if I try to make one loaf it comes out pretty weird).

I want to try the Gluten Free Pantry bread mix, too. After that, I think I'll start experimenting with recipes.

gluten-free bread is not easier to make and gluten bread.

I do not work as a baker but I make a lot of Gluten-free Casein-free bread for my friends. I get orders off 10 bread at a time so I bake a lot off them.

But I don't agree that its easyer.. I have found a good recipes that usuly works but it havent been easy. The bread want rise, its raw inside ++ We dont have so much flour mixes in my country as you have in the US.

I visited US last year and went to a small healthstore. And it felt like I was in heaven. I have never seen so much gluten-free food at one place. So many bread, coocikes, flour mixes, pasta ++ It took me over 1 hour before I drew back to the hotell. I bought som rice bread that tasted very good.

The reason I ask off the ener-G bread is that its a bit easyer to take travel with. Beacuse its wrapped in plastic and hold much longer. My bread fall apart if they ar older then 4 days, and it not always easy to find gluten-free bread. Specilly not in europe because they use wheat starch in it and calls it glutenfree :angry:

I am on SCD diet so I can not eat the bread but Im asking beacause of my friends with autistic kids on Gluten-free Casein-free diet.

Maybe I will order som of the bread so the kids can try them. If they like them it good but I dont now.

My kids like the raisin bread if it's toasted and they like the tapioca bread made into grilled sandwiches.

Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients. The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus! Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces! Considering...

      I think, after reading this, that you areso traumatized by not being able yo understand what your medical advisors have been  what medical conditions are that you would like to find a group of people who also feel traumatized who would agree with you and also support you. You are on a crusade much as the way the US Cabinet  official, the Health Director of our nation is in trying to change what he considers outdated and incorrect health advisories. He does not have the education, background or experience to be in the position he occupies and is not making beneficial decisions. That man suffered a terrible trauma early in his life when his father was assonated. We see now how he developed and worked himself into a powerful position.  Unless you are willing to take some advice or  are willing to use a few of the known methods of starting on a path to better health then not many of us on this Celiac Forum will be able to join you in a continuing series of complaints about medical advisors.    I am almost 90 years old. I am strictly gluten free. I use 2 herbs to help me stay as clear minded as possible. You are not wrong in complaining about medical practitioners. You might be more effective with a clearer mind, less anger and a more comfortable life if you would just try some of the suggestions offered by our fellow celiac volunteers.

      Thus has got to STOP , medical bit believing us! I literally went through 31 years thinking it was just a food allergy as its downplayed by medical if THEY weren't the ones who diagnosed us! Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      By RUKen · Posted

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.
