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.

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

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).

      Diagnosed celiac for 1-2 months ago and everything makes me bloated.

      By Beverage · Posted

      I had a very rough month after diagnosis. No exaggeration, lost so much inflammatory weight, I looked like a bag of bones, underneath i had been literally starving to death. I did start feeling noticeably better after a month of very strict control of my kitchen and home. What are you eating for breakfast and lunch? I ignored my doc and ate oats, yes they were gluten free, but some brands are at the higher end of gluten free. Lots of celics can eat Bob's Red Mill gluten-free oats, but not me. I can now eat them, but they have to be grown and processed according to the "purity protocol" methods. I mail order them, Montana Gluten-Free brand. A food and symptoms and activities log can be helpful in tracking down issues. You might be totally aware, but I have to mention about the risk of airborne gluten. As the doc that diagnosed me warned . . Remember eyes, ears, nose, and mouth all lead to your stomach and intestines.  Are you getting any cross contamination? Airborne gluten? Any pets eating gluten (they eat it, lick themselves, you pet them...)? Any house remodeling? We live in an older home, always fixing something. I've gotten glutened from the dust from cutting into plaster walls, possibly also plywood (glues). The suggestions by many here on vitamin supplements also really helped me. I had some lingering allergies and asthma, which are now 99% gone. I was taking Albuterol inhaler every hour just to breathe, but thiamine in form of benfotiamine kicked that down to 1-2 times a day within a few days of starting it. Also, since cutting out inflammatory seed oils (canola, sunflower, grapeseed, etc) and cooking with real olive oil, avocado oil, ghee, and coconut oil, I have noticed even greater improvement overall and haven't used the inhaler in months! It takes time to weed out everything in your life that contains gluten, and it takes awhile to heal and rebuild your health. At first it's mentally exhausting, overwhelming, even obsessive, but it gets better and second nature.

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.
