Cornmeal

I've been hesitant to try recipes with cornmeal because I haven't researched the gluten status. Bob's Red Mill not being packaged in a gluten-free package made me nervous about all cornmeal. So rather than start from square one, I thought I'd try here instead. I found a post that someone uses Kinnikinnick cornmeal. Anyone use any other brands? I've never seen Kinnikinnick cornmeal at our little natural foods store.

Thanks for the help!

Isn't all cornmeal gluten-free? I thought it was.

I saw some at W-mart that listed wheat.

I just had a big issue trying to find cornmeal and I posted it somewhere on here. I'm pretty sure I called Bob's Red Mill and was told their cornmeal is made on lines that make things with wheat. I went with Arrowhead Mills because they were the only place I called that said they thoroughly clean the machines and frequently test for any gluten.

it might have been the person you spoke to - Bob's Red Mill packages now say they are certified gluten free. That person might not know this. go to the web site here Open Original Shared Link and they show a picture of the packages that are gluten free. It's possible some of the corn flours are not, but you can be sure that in that case those packages won't say "gluten-free" on them...as for me, I use BRM too, for grits, for fine cornmeal (for things like cake and spoonbread), and for medium grind (I use that to cover the pans when I bake bread) but for pancakes I prefer Arrowhead Mills.

Bob's Red Mill just came out with a gluten free line of corn meal. That's what I ended up buying. Now Ijust need to find a great cornbread and cornbread pudding recipe and I'm all set!

Yes ... Bob's Red Mill makes a wonderful Gluten Free Cornmeal...I use it for the Cornmeal Pancakes that I make...

Kids love these

Cornmeal Pancakes

1 cup of gluten-free All purpose Flour Blend

(I used Namaste Perfect Flour Blend, the xanthan gum is included in this)

1/3 cup cornmeal (I used Bob's Red Mill Cornmeal because it is declared Gluten Free)

1T Sugar

1 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder

1/4 teaspoon Baking Soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

----------------------------

1 large egg lightly beaten (or equivalent egg substitute)

1 cup milk (or milk substitute, soy or rice, or almond milk)

1 Tablespoon Molasses

1 Tablespoon Butter Melted

-----------------------------

Lightly spoon flour blend into measuring cup and level with a knife.

Combine flour blend and the next 5 ingredients in a large bowl

Blend with a whisk.

In a separate bowl,add beaten egg, milk, molasses and melted butter

Add wet ingredients to dry and blend with a whisk lightly

The batter still should have some lumps.

Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto a hot griddle that

has been greased or sprayed with non-stick spray.

Cook as you would any other pancake, till bottoms are lightly browned

Serve with gluten-free Maple Syrup

A Horse's Soul - Was it the Bob's Red cornmeal that says "gluten free" on the front or the regular cornmeal??

I have been using Arrowhead Mills cornmeal and just discovered that they also have a blue corn meal. I think my next corn adventure will be Blue Corn Dogs. I just made them with yellow corn (the day before I discovered the blue corn at Whole Foods).

      Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster. Many of them are found close together on the chromosomes.

      Just giving another update... I was referred to rheumatology, and they suspect that I may also be dealing with fibromyalgia (it has not been formally diagnosed, but just suggested at this point).  So, I am continuing with the anti-inflammatory diet and vitamins and still working to keep getting rid of all these hidden gluten sources, but I also do have another possible explanation for some of the issues that I'm dealing with.

      I would pressure the lab to do the IgA control test for free so that you won't write a poor review about their testing services. You could get this done at any time, whether or not you are gluten-free, however, the celiac disease Tissue Transglutaminase tTG-IgA test must be done after you've been eating lots of gluten for around 6 weeks. This way you could salvage the results of your tTG-IgA test, as long as you were eating lots of gluten beforehand.

      Given your strong reactions it would be wise not to eat things offered to you without reading the ingredient labels. It's possible there was indeed gluten or some allergen in the chocolates--barley malt is a common ingredient in some chocolates.

      Yes, an IgG panel is the logical next step. However, you would still need to be consuming normal amounts of gluten to ensure valid IgG testing. Since it has only been a week that you have been off gluten, there is still likely time to restore antibodies to detectable levels before the blood draw. IgG antibody tests are not quite as specific for celiac disease as are the IGA tests but they are certainly valuable in the case of IGA deficiency. They also seem to have a little more "staying power" in the sense of detecting celiac disease in the case of those who may have already started a gluten-free diet as long as they haven't been on it for an extended period of time. But don't rely on that. Get back on gluten if you can possibly endure it if you intend to go forward with IgG testing. This might be helpful:
