What is the difference in sweet rice flour and plain rice flour? Could I use them interchangeably? Specificaly, I am making pie crust that calls for the sweet rice flour. I have a hard time finding the sweet one locally and I hate paying shipping charges.

Sweet rice flour is more sticky when you mix it and gives sort of a stretchy texture in baked goods. If you use plain rice flour the crust may be more crumbly or grainy. Sweet rice flour IS the same as "glutinous" rice flour however (which is glutne free despite the name). Do you have an Asian food store in town? I can always find glutinous rice flour there and it's much cheaper than ordering it online.

Thanks. I'm on my way to the Asian market.

That's why I love this site. Somebody always has an answer to a question or a shoulder to cry on if that's what you need.

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      I cut out the rice because it was affecting my stomach at the time ... not necessarily dermatitis herpetiformis. It was Tilda Basmati Rice, sometimes wholegrain rice. I was willing to do whatever it took to heal. Too much fiber also disagrees with me as I have UC.

      Is this celiac?

      But you didn't answer my question. When you consume gluten, is there an identifiable reaction within a short period of time, say a few hours?

      You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not very common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/

      I am only wondering why you would need to cut out rice? I've never heard of rice being any issue in those with DH.

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      My mother has celiac disease and was diagnosed with Afib around 8 months ago. She's 81 and around 2 months ago had ablation therapy done, which is a very common procedure to treat this, and has been out of Afib 95% of the time since then. Apparently the full effects of this treatment don't kick in for 90 days, so the doctors expect her recovery to possibly reach 100%. Be sure to discuss this with your doctor.
