Tinkyada

I made Lasagna over the weekend with this and it was AWESOME. I literally could not tell the difference relative to regular noodles. :)

Now I want to stock up on bulk quantities of all their pastas. Anyone know a good source for this - I checked the website, you cannot order from them directly, it seems.

If the rest of their pasta is this good, I will not be wanting for Italian food, no siree. My next project will be to learn to make decent fresh gluten-free bread, and then I will be in like flynn.

I love Tinkyada too, Do you have a Whole Foods near you? I saw that they had some Tinkyada pasta and they could probably special order it by the case for you if you wanted it...

I get it at my local co-op... Life Grocery, they are awesome about stocking great gluten-free goodies.

Tinkyada is the best! My non celiac family could not tell the difference when that is made. I get them at local health food stores. If they do not carry them you can request they get it in and you pick it up when your order comes in.

I don't have a source near me, so I order it from Open Original Shared Link. IF I am paying WAY too much... don't tell me!!! :o:o:o I don't want to know! Hahahaha! I love this pasta and my family is clueless that it is gluten-free ~ until told!! It is SO nice to make just one bowl of pasta instead of two. :)

I like the Tinkyada pasta too, but I made a pasta salad with it this weekend. The pasta was great, but we went camping and I had it in a cooler and then when I went to eat it after being cold it had hardened again. Has else had this happen? Strange. I cooked it quite a bit too, because i was cooking for my celiac toddler. Anyway, I had to throw it out.

Otherwise I have had good results and hope to make lasagna as soon as I am back home.

Monica,

I had that same thing happen to me when I made pasta salad. Tinkyada is the BEST for hot noodles, but cold in salad it left something to be desired. <_< Don't get me wrong, I love all of their noodles, I just don't think they are the best for cold pasta salad. The noodles get hard and chewy...

Wandering Hermit,

I buy mine from Gluten Solutions (see link above) and also from Whole Foods. They are about the same price. If you don't have a Whole Foods near you (or a place to buy them) then Gluten Solutions offers the best price. They offer a pack of Tinkyada's top 7 shaped noodles (Brown Rice Spirals, Spaghetti, Penne, Fettucini, Elbows, Fusilli, and Shells) for $19.95, and shipping isn't too expensive there...

Tinkyada also sells the Little Dreams pasta, which is shaped like little planes, trains, animals, and other toys. This is a big hit at my house with my kids, and like always has the great taste and texture of the other Tinkyada products. :D

God bless,

Mariann

I just want to add that Tinkyada IS the best gluten-free pasta out there that we know of. My 7 year old eats " noodles and sauce " at least 5 times a week. It packs well in a hot food container for his school lunch. I tried that with one of the other brands of gluten-free pastas and the stuff was absolute mush by the time he had it at lunch. Tinkyada stays perfectly well in a hot container. With all of the new gluten-free foods out there, my son finally eats a "normal" diet of TASTY foods. Other kids have no idea his foods are 'special'.

We have enjoyed the spagetthi, the lasagna noodles and the grand shells. I am awaiting an order of shells today as I didn't find them when we were last in Whole Foods. I am planning to cook the entire box, stuff them and freeze them. I used to buy stuffed shells and they were so convenient to have in the freezer. I simply bake them and use a jar of Classico for the sauce. Since I only cook for 2, we seldom use an entire recipe of anything and most days I can find something to make a quick meal from the freezer. We can supplement our shells with Carol Fenster's eggplant parmesan, Karen Robertson's foccocia and a Bard's Tale. We are not missing our Italian foods.

Do you use the cooking method of boiling two minutes and then sitting in the water?

      Going Low-Gluten May Harm Good Gut Bacteria, Researchers Warn

      Researchers are working on T cell modification therapy that could one day let celiacs eat gluten.

      Going Low-Gluten May Harm Good Gut Bacteria, Researchers Warn

      It's like a double edged sword.......we do one thing to improve a problem and cause another problem. I'd like to think the ultimate cure might be something that would train or modify the body to prevent the damage that gluten causes.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Ginger38 · Posted

      Thanks, I’m still dealing with the pain and tingling and itching and feeling like bugs or something crawling around on my face and scalp. It’s been a miserable experience. I saw my eye doc last week, the eye itself was okay, so they didn’t do anything. I did take a 7 day course of an antiviral. I’m hoping for a turnaround soon! My life is full of stress but I have been on / off the gluten free diet for the last year , after being talked into going back on gluten to have a biopsy, that looked okay. But I do have positive antibody levels that have been responsive  to a gluten free diet. I can’t help but wonder if the last year has caused all this.

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
