Kanne, do you have a bread machine?

I have a recipe for a gorgeous multigrain loaf using teff flour.

But I also found some great things here:

I like Teff. It's small but it packs such a big nutty flavor!!

Ah, then I will copy out a recipe for an amazingly gorgeous whole grain bread with teff flour.

It's got sesame, flax and sunflower seeds in it as well.

I made it once. And it's wonderful.

Her flour mix is millet, sorghum, potato starch, corn starch and tapioca.

Are you okay with those?

I'll type it out when I get home and get to the book.

It comes from Annalise Robert's book (the one with only bread machine recipes)

You will love it :)

Okay Kanne:

Here is your teff flour recipe:

First of all you have to mix her flour recipe.

Makes 3 cups of her flour:

1 cup millet flour,

1/2 cup sorghum,

1/2 cup corn starch,

1/2 cup sorghum flour,

1/2 cup potato starch,

1/2 cup tapioca starch

Now to the recipe:

Multi grain sandwich bread.

(remember to add the ingredients in the order your bread machine likes them, mine likes all wet first, dry after wards)

Remember to turn your crust control setting to medium

1 cup plus 2 tbs. milk

1/4 cup canola oil (canola is soy based, I don't use it, but I use vegetable oil)

2 large eggs

2 and 2/3 cups of the bread flour recipe above.

1/3 cup teff flour

3 tbs. sugar

2 and 1/4 tsp. xanthan gum

3/4 tsp. salt

1 packet active dry yeast (not bread machine or rapid rise!!)

2 tbs. flax seeds

2 tbs. sunflower seed

2 tbs. sesame seeds

**During the knead cycle put in your seeds.

The settings.

Here is the tricky part on a a bread machine.

I have a Zojirushi which uses the memory setting to make gluten-free breads.

I don't know how yours will be programed but here are the setting to mine:

Preheat=10 mins.

Knead=20 minutes

Rise 3 only (skip rise 1 and rise 2 settings!!)= 45 mins.

Bake=70 mins.

I hope you like the recipe and make it.

It's a staple for me.

Nice dark loaf!!

Let me know what you think, okay?

Sorry late answer ;)

In the recipe it says sorghum to timed (in the flour blend). Is it whole sorghum and then worghum flour?

I am not sure if I am able to find sorghum flour, is there any flour I can sustitue it with?

Oops!!

I meant to type this, sorry!!

1 cup millet flour,

1/2 cup sorghum flour,

1/2 cup corn starch,

1/2 cup potato starch,

1/2 cup tapioca starch

Sorghum is pretty much sorghum.

I don't know if you can substitute things.

However, if you can find a place which sells Bob's Red Mill Flour, they do have a bag od sorghum flour.

Good luck :)

Perhaps, Nora_N who lives in Norway can tell you where to get sorghum flour?

When I look up the swedish word for sorghum, I find that it is sorghum.

On the off chance that there is an Indian market (!!) near you, you can get sorghum flour there, it's called jowar flour.

Aside from that, maybe Nora_N will know.

Sorry I can't be of any more help.

I found out that I can get autentic food sorghummel. It was very expensive but I will give it a try one day.

I really love to bake ;)

      Coeliac or not coeliac

      Hello @CC90 Can I just ask a question: have you actually been told that your biopsy were normal, or just that your stomach, duodenum and small intestine looked normal? The reason I ask is that when I had my endoscopy, I was told everything looked normal. My TTG score was completely through the roof at the time, greater than 100 which was then the cut...

      My bad. I should have reread your first post as for some reason I was thinking your TTG was within normal range. While we are talking about celiac antibody blood work, you might not realize that there is not yet an industry standard rating scale in use for those blood tests so just having a raw number with out the reference scale can be less than helpful...

      Coeliac or not coeliac

      @CC90, Your Lansoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor and has immunosuppressive effects!!!! This is why your endoscopy didn't show much damage to the intestinal lining!! The Lansolprazole is suppressing tTg IgA antibodies in the intestines, but those antibodies are getting into the blood stream and causing inflammation and damage in other organs...

      Having issues with chips

      Hi, @kevert93, Those Gluten Assist enzymes digest carbohydrates, not just gluten specifically. Eating a high carbohydrate meal can deplete Thiamine Vitamin B 1 causing digestive symptoms like you describe. You could also be having difficulty digesting the oils used in those chips. Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can help. We need the eight...

      Coeliac or not coeliac

      Thank you for responding. I didn't intentionally reduce gluten prior to the endoscopy though I dont generally eat a lot of it due to the unpleasant symptoms. I was under the impression my TTG of 87.4 was very high, at least that's what my doctor said.

The reason I ask is that when I had my endoscopy, I was told everything looked normal.  My TTG score was completely through the roof at the time, greater than 100 which was then the cut off max. for my local lab.  Yet when my biopsy results came back, I was told I was stage 3 on the Marsh scale.  I've come across the same thing with at least one other person on this forum who was told everything looked normal, but the report was not talking about the actual biopsy samples, which had to be looked at through a microscope and came back abnormal.

      My bad. I should have reread your first post as for some reason I was thinking your TTG was within normal range. While we are talking about celiac antibody blood work, you might not realize that there is not yet an industry standard rating scale in use for those blood tests so just having a raw number with out the reference scale can be less than helpful, especially when the test results are marginal. But a result of 87.4 is probably out of the normal range and into the positive range for any lab's scale. But back to the question of why your endoscopy/biopsy didn't show damage despite significantly positive TTG. Because they took the trouble to take seven samples, it is not likely they missed damage because of it being patchy. The other possibility is that there hasn't been time for the damage to show up. How long have you been experiencing the symptoms you describe in your first post? Having said all that, there are other medical conditions that can cause elevated TTG-IGA values and sometimes they are transient issues. I think it would be wise to ask for another TTG-IGA before the repeat endoscopy to see if it is still high.  Knitty kitty's suggestion of getting genetic testing done is also something to think about. About 35% of the general population will have one or both genes that are markers for the potential to develop active celiac disease but only about 1% of the population actually develop celiac disease. So, having a celiac potential gene cannot be used to definitively diagnose celiac disease but it can be realistically used to rule it out if you don't have either of the genes. If your symptoms persist, and all testing is complete and the follow-up endoscopy/biopsy still shows no damage, you should consider trialing a gluten free diet for a few months to see if symptoms improve. If not celiac disease, you could have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).

Sheesh!  Doctors can be so ignorant.  I've seen this so many times it's frustrating! Take the B Complex and Benfotiamine.  Get off the Lansoprazole.  Go with the DNA test results.   Welcome to the tribe! P.S. B vitamins are needed to correct anemia!  Not just iron.

We need the eight B vitamins to digest our food, carbs, fats and proteins.  Poor digestion can cause symptoms like vomiting and stomach pain, brain fog, headaches, exhaustion.  Try taking a B Complex with the activated forms of the B vitamins (Life Extension's Bioactive B Complex is great!) and additional Benfotiamine.  The B vitamins are used to make digestive enzymes and will allow your digestive system to function properly.  The B vitamins also will improve headaches, exhaustion, and brain function.  Taking Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine will improve digestive symptoms and lower inflammation, too.  Benfotiamine and the B vitamins are safe.  The B vitamins are chemical compounds found in whole foods, not in highly processed foods like chips.   The body cannot make the B vitamins, so supplementing is beneficial.  Benfotiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.
