Stroopwafels!

Hubby's parents are going to visit family in Holland next week. We have a deep love for that quintessential Dutch treat - stroopwafels. If you know what they are, you probably know how delicious they taste!

Whenever someone we know goes to Holland, they always bring back a ton of goodies, but the stroopwaffels are what we look forward to the most. Is there a gluten-free brand of these sinful treats that can be purchased in Holland? Please tell me there is! :)

Ah .... stroopwafel I remember them well :(

I used to love them too - even though they were very, very sweet (I am more of an extra salty drop girl myself ...)

Of course drop is now out too. So sad .... :(

I don't think they make them in the Netherlands.

I did a search for them and came up empty.

May I suggest that you put in a call to a Dutch food importer, such as this one:

Open Original Shared Link

1dutchmall.com / Holland American

10343 E. Artesia Blvd.

Bellflower, CA 90706

Phone:562-925-6914

Fax:562-925-4507

Hours: Monday -Friday (10am-5pm)

Saturday (10am-6pm)

Sunday (11am - 4pm)

If they do make them they can tell you the brand and then your husband's parents can search them. By the way, "gluten free" in Dutch translates to "glutenvrij".

One of my coworkers brought in stroopwafel - and kruidkook (spice cake) last month - there they were on the breakroom table and it broke my heart not to be able to have some of both.

Sorry I was not able to help you out more. But I'd put in a call to the folks above and see what they say.

Grootjes!

Update tsfairy:

Oh, god, I found them!! :D:D:D

Open Original Shared Link

A company called Consenza makes them.

I looks like they are made from rice flour (rijstzetmeel) and corn meal (maiszetmeel) and come in a package of 4 pieces for 5 Euros. Have your hubby's parents try finding them in a big supermaket like Albert Hejn - and have them ask (or print out the page) and show it to them there.

Good luck to you!

If you like them let me know how they taste!!

Bestjes!!

      Latent celiac, need to go gluten free, advice on kitchen "reset?"

      By ShariW · Posted

      These look great!  I follow several people who frequently post gluten-free recipes online (plus they sell their cookbooks). "Gluten Free on a Shoestring" and "Erin's Meaningful Eats>"

      Latent celiac, need to go gluten free, advice on kitchen "reset?"

      By ShariW · Posted

      When I had to go gluten-free, the rest of my family still ate gluten. They still eat regular bread products and crackers, but there are no other gluten-containing foods in the house. I bought a separate toaster that is only used for gluten-free products, and thoroughly cleaned all cookware, dishes and surfaces. We do have to be very careful with cross-contact, for instance when someone else is making a sandwich with wheat bread. Then I went through my cupboards and pantry, I set aside everything else with gluten and gave it away - flour and baking mixes, pasta, etc. So when I cook any recipe that calls for flour (perhaps for thickening) or bread crumbs like Panko, I only use gluten-free.

      How many people also get sick from the following prolamins?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Exactly, everyone with celiac disease technically has an "intolerance" to these: Wheat: The prolamin is called gliadin. Barley: The prolamin is called hordein. Rye: The prolamin is called secalin. Around 9% of celiacs also should avoid oats (but around the time of diagnosis this may be much higher--some will have temporary intolerance): Oats: The prolamin is called avenin. I had to avoid this for 1-2 years after my diagnosis until my gut healed: Corn: The prolamin is called zein. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary...
