Against The Grain Type Rolls

My son loves the Against the Grain rolls. but they're expensive and I think I could make something similar with a good recipe.

Anybody have a recipe for a gluten free roll that uses mozzarella cheese? I could experiment, but the ingredients are so darned expensive.

Thanks!

What is in them??

NewGFMom Contributor

They are tapioca flour and mozzarella mostly... But I figured it out!

I found this recipe and it was remarkably similar.

They were super easy to make and everybody LOVED them. If you can have dairy, these are a dream come true!

I plan on making them all the time. I'll put fresh rosemary in them and serve them as dinner rolls, I'll make them bigger and use them for sandwiches.

They are a gluten free cook's dream come true!

I'll probably tweak them a bit. I think they could use a pinch of salt, and I think I'd double the baking powder next time. But WOW. I'm always trying to find stuff that's not sweets that is easy to bring on the go and these little guys are just the thing!

Sorry, very excited about this!

That looks amazing! are those really all the ingredients?? that doesnt seem possible. im trying them!!!

NewGFMom Contributor

There's other recipes out there that use milk and oil in addition to the tapioca and cheese. But we're trying to loose weight, so I went with the lower fat version. If you google Brazillian Cheese rolls, you'll get more recipes.

Oh im happy with those! It just seemed too good to be true haha

thanks for sharing :D

I wonder if I could substitute Feta for the oaxaca cheese? I don't know what got into me the other day at Costco when I bought a giant vat of Feta ...

The rolls look DELICIOUS!

Thanks for the link to the Yucca bread recipe. I, too am addicted to Against the Grain rosemary rolls and would love to be able to make my own. Can't wait to try this recipe. They make fabulous hamburger buns.

I made these last night and was not to happy. They flattened out and several fell. What size pan do you use? I'm thinking I should have used a smaller one - mine was 9 by 13. They Tasted just alright.

this recipe needs something.

i tried these last night. i used the cup of tapioca flour and baking powder, then added two large egg yolks and the mozzarella. the dough did not come together at all. added milk for liquid because my cream was bad... maybe that was my problem. but even after adding liquid it still did not help at all. so my sister and i looked at the crumbles of tapioca cheese stuff.... and decided instead of giving up we might as well add the egg whites since they were just sitting there. then the dough looked exactly as described so i thought okay now we're doing good. we rolled off ten balls and put them in a round pan. and it came out like one big piece of flat bread. it tasted good but i think next time i'll have to try a different recipe or getting cream and seeing if that works better than plain milk. my guess is yes. next time i check the expiration date <_<

live and learn :lol:

NewGFMom Contributor

I used 2 whole eggs (instead of just the yokes) and double acting baking powder and I used half and half for the cream. I used Sargento shredded mozzarella for the cheese. They puffed up pretty good.

I've found I get much better results when I use a double-acting baking powder such as calumet as opposed to Rumsfords.

Good luck and I'm sorry they're not working out so great!

NewGFMom Contributor

I made them again tonight... I would recommend using a larger cookie sheet to keep them separate instead of putting them together like dinner rolls. They do spread quite a bit before they puff up. I upped the recipe by 1/2 and made 6 larger ones in a muffin top pan that I got from A M A Z O N and I made 6 smaller ones on a cookie sheet. We used the larger ones for hamburger buns and they were really good.

I used the whole eggs and half and half. It's very hot here and the dough got dry very quickly when I was making the balls, so I tried to get them in the oven as quickly as possible.

I have a picture of what I made, but I can't seem to post a picture here unless it's on line. I'll e-mail it to anybody who wants to see what they looked like.

Here's a link to my adapted version with photos... It's not so different from the recipe, but the results were great.

I don't think you could make this with feta though. You really need the chewy-ness of the mozzarella to make these:

Margaret,

Thanks for the link. I've saved the recipe and will definitely be making these.

made these last night. mine did not puff up as much as yours did in the picture, but they were decent. Followed your directions to the T. Maybe I need to grind the mozz more? I used finely shredded, left out to warm a little, straight from the bag. Do I need to grind more in a processor?

I will definitely try again--I haven't tried the real thing yet because I have to order a case (12) of the Against the Grain rolls and it's killing me to shell out that much "dough" :D:lol: at one time.

Thanks

NewGFMom Contributor

Did you use Rumsford Baking powder? I find it doesn't work as well as Calumet, or even the generic brand.

minniejack Contributor

I used Clabber girl. Made them again this morning in a regular muffin pan and they puffed right up.

Will be buying myself the muffin top pan because I intend on making these A Lot!

Both "men folk", (DS14 and DH) came home yesterday telling me how great the bread was in their lunches--just sliced in two and made sandwiches with the rolls. Mind you, I made their lunches at 6 am and they didn't eat until after 12 and the bread did not need microwaving and did not crumble or become soggy.

I think you saved me a small fortune!! Thank you.

      Welcome to the forum @Known1, What reaction were you expecting? Pipingrock.com High Potency Vitamin D3, 2000 IU, 250 Quick Release Softgels $6.89 I've have been taking the 10,000 IU for close to 10 years. When I started with vitamin D I worked my way up to 10000 over several weeks.  Even at 8000 I felt no noticeable difference.  Then after a few days at 10000 it hit Whoa, sunshine in a bottle.  celiac disease causes malabsorption of dietary D and you've poor UV access.  It took me from 2015 to 2019 to get my 25(OH)D just to 47 ng/ml.  Another two years to get to 80.  70 to 100 ng/ml seems to be the body's natural upper homeostasis  based on lifeguard studies.  Dr. Holick has observed the average lifeguard population usually has a vitamin D 3 level of around 100 ng/ml. Could it be that our normal range is too low given the fact that ¾ or more of the American population is vitamin D deficient? Your Calcium will increase with the vitamin D so don't supplement calcium unless you really need it.  Monitor with PTH  and 25(OH)D tests. Because of your Marsh 3 damage you need to ingest way more than the RDA of any supplement to undo your specific deficiencies. I believe you are in the goiter belt.  Unless you have reason not to, I recommend pipingrock's Liquid Iodine for price and quality.  The RDA is 150 to 1100 mcg.  In Japan the safe upper level is set at 3000 mcg.  Start with one drop 50 mcg to test for adverse response and build up.  I found 600 mcg (12 drops) a day is helping repair my body.  Iodine is necessary to healing.  90% of daily iodine intake is excreted in urine.  A Urine Iodine Concentration (UIC) can tell how much Iodine you got that day.  The thyroid TSH test will not show iodine deficiency unless it is really bad.

      I don't know if I am getting sufficient Omega Threes. I read about  phosphotidyl choline may cause heart issues. I will have o do further research on heathy Omega 3 supplements or from foods. Is there a blood test that can tell you everything level in your system such as Thiamine, Benfotiamine levels etc? Thanks

      If lectins were my problem, I would react to wheat germ (the highest source of wheat lectins) and beans. I don't. I only react to bread and pasta, which are the highest sources of gluten. Therefore, my issue is wheat-specific (Gluten/ATIs), not a general lectin issue.   I have eaten a supposedly high lectin diet (I say supposedly because lectin content in these foods is greatly reduced by proper cooking and I eat very few of those foods raw, and even then, rarely!!) for years. My health has improved greatly on my whole foods plant forward diet. I have asked all my drs and a registered dietician about my diet, asked if eating such a high amnt of fiber might interfere with the digestion of any other nutrients and the answer has always been NO.     while doing the gluten challenge I did not eat ANY wheat germ (since it doesn't have hardly any gluten, and I was too sick from the bread and pasta to want to eat much anyway) I will NOT put that poison in my body again. That was a horrific experience and if this is what most celiac patients have to deal with, I am very sorry for them I don't care if I have celiac or NCGS I won't intentionally cause myself that much pain and suffering it's not worth it.

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!
