How Do I Eat This Frozen Rice Bread?

It is crumbling into peices still frozen. Do I defrost the whole loaf and eat it fast before it spoils, keeping it in the fridge, or do I defrost it separate it and freeze sections that I can defrost bit my bit. I can't cut it frozen, and it was expensive, so I don;t want it to go bad!

I don't know what brand of bread you bought, but some are a nightmare to separate. I used to get the Foods for life brand and it was a solid brick. I would microwave for 30 secs at a time and separate pieces as I could without overheating it. Then I put it into sandwhich baggies, laying the pieces in opposite directions so they wouldn't be inclined to re-stick together.

That being said... I've begun buying Kinnikinnick white tapioca bread. I don't care if it's tapioca and white and basically junk. I've got other things to do than separate frozen bread, bag it, clean up crumbs, dishes and still have to make a sandwich! The kinnikinnick bread stays in the freezer but separates EASILY. I simply snap the pieces off while still frozen. So much better.

Thank you! Yup, I got the Food for Life brick.

I concur also - Kinnickinnick is by far the best. Their tapioca bread is the best. Also, their engligh muffins are great, especially toasted, nice and fluffy!

Hi,

I eat this stuff :) Yep, it can be a b*tch to separate frozen. Take a butter knife and try to pound in between the layers. Sometimes it's easy, sometimes not. Or, defrost it in the fridge. I've found me & my ds can get through a loaf in the fridge before it goes bad.

The Brown rice bread they sell stays in its slices much better. And the white one varies radically from loaf to loaf - some shatter (very annoying) and some are fine. Be gentle with it in your grocery cart, and at home. They also make a black bread loaf, which is pretty good, but sweeter, and a red loaf which my ds likes. The others IMO were gross.

I just deal with it. I'm too lazy to order my bread off the internet :D

Merika- we used the black china rice for several years. It was my son's favorite. I've got to tell you, the Kinnikinnick tapioca rice bread is soooo+++ much better. It's not sticky, either. It's like Pepperidge Farm white bread. *do they make that anymore? And there's no separating the slices! Ordering on line is easy and it's a flat $10 shipping... and Kinnikinnick has a points program you add to to get deals. It's so worth the effort.

The K bread, if I recall correctly, has eggs and/or milk in it. I don't eat eggs, and while I eat cheese, I avoid actual milk. I do hear great things about it :)

I ate the Pepperidge Farm stuff as a kid, but I'm more of a nutty/texture-y spelt bread kind of eater (no, I don't eat it anymore...)

The delicate white Food for Life isn't a huge problem with a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, which is the only thing I eat them for. The pb and J do a nice job of sticking it all together :P And I cut ds's up into little squares so they don't fall apart on him.

....thought many times about trying the chebe and modifying it, but....just have never got around to it. maybe I don't like bread that much :blink:

Jnkmnky Collaborator

Oh, yeah. There's eggs in it. Kinnikinnick has a spelt bread I got for myself. It's good, but I guess it's going to have eggs in it as well. It's very spelty. Chebe is really good. I actually made it tonight and was kind of sick of it though.

jenvan Collaborator

oh yeah, the english muffins from kinninnick. we like to make egg/cheese breakfast sandwiches out of them or toast them on the grill for hamburgers too. they're good...

skbird Contributor

Mmmmmm, I miss spelt bread. I wish I could still eat it, but that gluten thing...

I keep my Food for Life bread in the fridge. No problem there and it separates pretty well. It's just a high moisture bread so that's why it sticks. I like the China Black and the Red Bhutanese ones, also the Millet.

I have decided I really like the EnerG Light Tapioca bread. Last night my stomach was not happy so I was wishing I could have some real plain old toast. I opened the fridge and there was the brown rice FFL bread - too heavy, some EnerG white rice yeast free bread - very dense and cardboardy, and then the Light Tapioca. I smelled it and it actually smelled something like bread. So I toasted and buttered and it was HEAVEN! Pretty close to the good old days when I'd have white or that sort of "whole wheat" bread slathered with butter when my stomach was unhappy. The light has less calories and carbs but also has a better texture - not drywall. I think it might be my new favorite gluten free bread.

I have kept FFL (food for life) bread in the fridge for a couple of weeks at a time and no mold. So there's an idea.

Whoops! I meant FLAX...not spelt. Geez, I'm losing it. :o:blink:

Kinnickinnick Italian Tapioca-Rice Bread is what I always get. I like it best toasted :)

terri Contributor

When I order bread or buy it at Whole Foods, as soon as I get it, I take little pieces of wax paper and put one between each slice. Then I freeze the whole thing as a loaf. That way it is never stuck together. I also do that with the hot dog and hamburger buns. Of course, it won't work with the Red Bhutanese bread that you buy frozen. With that I get out the butcher knife and try to split off pieces. Now that's a dangerous job!! :lol:

      All I can say is this site is great!

      From their website I see "organic barley leaf powder" as an ingredient. Keep in mind that the gluten is in the kernel, and not in the leaves. https://drinkag1.com/about-ag1/ingredients/ctr

      Before the rise of social media we were well known by a lot of doctors and were recommended by many, especially our Safe & Forbidden Lists, but as doctors get younger and younger this is probably not happening as much as before.

      Thanks Scott I will definitely check my vitamins and minerals to see what I am missing so then I can supplement. I was very concern about my Meniers syntoms and i tryed to find some alive. Now im just realizing that my celiac is provably the root cause of my Meniers none of the 12 doctors I saw told me anything about this.  This web site is so helpful, thanks to people like you we can get answers.

      Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to rib pain. Chest pain stemming from the ribs ccould be costochondritis, which involves inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone. This pain can range from mild to severe, potentially mimicking heart attack symptoms, and is often worsened by breathing or movement. Other potential causes include muscle strain, rib fractures, or even referred pain from other conditions.  It will also help to chose vegetables low in omega 6.
