Before being diagnosed about 2 weeks ago I would sell my soul for Pizza Hut Supreme Pan Pizza. I love it so much. SO MUCH. I was wondering if you guys had any recipes for really good pan pizza crust or pizza sauce. I heard you have to drown gluten free pizza crust in sauce because it all gets absorbed. I love pizza so much. How do I get that oily and greasy, deep fried taste of pizza hut? Please help? lol

Uhm, ah, what does this stuff taste like ? :o:ph34r:

How do I get that oily and greasy, deep fried taste of pizza hut? Please help? lol

If you want a crust that is sort of grease- crusted, you would lay a lot of olive oil down in the pizza pan first, maybe sprinkle with some gluten free cornmeal, then put the dough in it to bake until almost done. THEN you would put the toppings on it to finish it off, but you'd spread the top surface of the dough first with olive oil, then add the sauce, cheese, and toppings, then run it under the broiler again.

Alternatively, you could use a dedicated cast iron pan for gluten free cooking, and preheat it w/ olive oil, then add your crust, then it would bake/fry, but getting the pizza crust into the hot oiled pan would be a little tricky. You can preheat the pan on the stovetop burner. But that is another way to get a crispy fried bottom crust.

I hear you, Booghead! I used to love Pizza Hut Supreme Pan Pizza, too, but now make my own. It's not Pizza Hut but it's good and and it satisfies my pizza cravings but I don't make it greasy. Takala has given you some good suggestions for that. And no, you don't have to drown a gluten-free pizza crust in sauce. The only time I had trouble with that was when I used gluten-free Bisquick for a crust.

You might want to check this recent pizza crust thread and see if you can find a recipe that appeals to you.

The most palatable crust I've found is the pizza mix by Chebes, which a local health food store sells for less than $3, & the gluten-free mall carries it. There are a few gluten-free bloggers that have recreated the mix by using tapioca flour, etc., but I haven't tried that yet. If you check the ingredients on pizza sauce, they should be great. There's an organic one the I like available locally.

Get one of those holy pizza pans at Wal-Mart. $12.

SUPER SUPREME PIZZA

A feast of pepperoni, ham, beef, pork sausage, Italian sausage, red onions, mushrooms, green peppers and black olives.

I pasted that from Pizza Hut's web site, it should all be safe, but check ingredients. Just remember that when you're making pizza everything is in little bits, so unless you have other plans for those toppings, I'd trim it down a bit.

I had an unfortunate former marriage to someone who owned a pizza parlor, so I've had a LOT of pizza. My favorite is sausage, mushrooms and onion on a thin crust with lots of cheese. You can cook pizza in the oven (follow directions on the Chebe package) or grill it, it's yummy.

I'm not doing corn. Here's how I make pizza.

Make Chebe mix according to directions. Once rolled out(or patted, if you don't have a rolling pin), use a soup spoon to apply pizza sauce, and use the back of it to smooth it over the crust. You want to see some white on the crust, don't put the sauce on too thickly. Scatter your minced/chopped ingredients on the crust. Top with freshly shredded mozzarella cheese and some grated parmesan cheese. Drizzle a little olive oil over the top. Add S&P and Italian spices if desired and bake or grill per pkg. instructions.

I don't even bother reheating the leftovers, eat 'em cold. There's an older thread about pizza if you search, so maybe somebody has a better recipe than this one, but I'm really happy with this one.

      New (possible) celiac diagnosis

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Judy M! Yes, he definitely needs to continue eating gluten until the day of the endoscopy. Not sure why the GI doc advised otherwise but it was a bum steer.  Celiac disease has a genetic component but also an "epigenetic" component. Let me explain. There are two main genes that have been identified as providing the "potential" to develop "active" celiac disease. We know them as HLA-DQ 2.5 (aka, HLA-DQ 2) and HLA-DQ8. Without one or both of these genes it is highly unlikely that a person will develop celiac disease at some point in their life. About 40% of the general population carry one or both of these two genes but only about 1% of the population develops active celiac disease. Thus, possessing the genetic potential for celiac disease is far less than deterministic. Most who have the potential never develop the disease. In order for the potential to develop celiac disease to turn into active celiac disease, some triggering stress event or events must "turn on" the latent genes. This triggering stress event can be a viral infection, some other medical event, or even prolonged psychological/emotional trauma. This part of the equation is difficult to quantify but this is the epigenetic dimension of the disease. Epigenetics has to do with the influence that environmental factors and things not coded into the DNA itself have to do in "turning on" susceptible genes. And this is why celiac disease can develop at any stage of life. Celiac disease is an autoimmune condition (not a food allergy) that causes inflammation in the lining of the small bowel. The ingestion of gluten causes the body to attack the cells of this lining which, over time, damages and destroys them, impairing the body's ability to absorb nutrients since this is the part of the intestinal track responsible for nutrient absorption and also causing numerous other food sensitivities such as dairy/lactose intolerance. There is another gluten-related disorder known as NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just, "gluten sensitivity") that is not autoimmune in nature and which does not damage the small bowel lining. However, NCGS shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease such as gas, bloating, and diarrhea. It is also much more common than celiac disease. There is no test for NCGS so, because they share common symptoms, celiac disease must first be ruled out through formal testing for celiac disease. This is where your husband is right now. It should also be said that some experts believe NCGS can transition into celiac disease. I hope this helps.

      New (possible) celiac diagnosis

      By Judy M · Posted

      My husband has had lactose intolerance for his entire life (he's 68 yo).  So, he's used to gastro issues. But for the past year he's been experiencing bouts of diarrhea that last for hours.  He finally went to his gastroenterologist ... several blood tests ruled out other maladies, but his celiac results are suspect.  He is scheduled for an endoscopy and colonoscopy in 2 weeks.  He was told to eat "gluten free" until the tests!!!  I, and he know nothing about this "diet" much less how to navigate his in daily life!! The more I read, the more my head is spinning.  So I guess I have 2 questions.  First, I read on this website that prior to testing, eat gluten so as not to compromise the testing!  Is that true? His primary care doctor told him to eat gluten free prior to testing!  I'm so confused.  Second, I read that celiac disease is genetic or caused by other ways such as surgery.  No family history but Gall bladder removal 7 years ago, maybe?  But how in God's name does something like this crop up and now is so awful he can't go a day without worrying.  He still works in Manhattan and considers himself lucky if he gets there without incident!  Advice from those who know would be appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!

      You've done an excellent job of meticulously tracking the rash's unpredictable behavior, from its symmetrical spread and stubborn scabbing to the potential triggers you've identified, like the asthma medication and dietary changes. It's particularly telling that the rash seems to flare with wheat consumption, even though your initial blood test was negative—as you've noted, being off wheat before a test can sometimes lead to a false negative, and your description of the other symptoms—joint pain, brain fog, stomach issues—is very compelling. The symmetry of the rash is a crucial detail that often points toward an internal cause, such as an autoimmune response or a systemic reaction, rather than just an external irritant like a plant or mites. I hope your doctor tomorrow takes the time to listen carefully to all of this evidence you've gathered and works with you to find some real answers and effective relief. Don't be discouraged if the rash fluctuates; your detailed history is the most valuable tool you have for getting an accurate diagnosis.

      Gluten free beer ?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In this case the beer is excellent, but for those who are super sensitive it is likely better to go the full gluten-free beer route. Lakefront Brewery (another sponsor!) has good gluten-free beer made without any gluten ingredients.

      Welcome to the forum, @catsrlife! Celiac disease can be diagnosed without committing to a full-blown "gluten challenge" if you get a skin biopsy done during an active outbreak of dermatitis herpetiformis, assuming that is what is causing the rash. There is no other known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis so it is definitive for celiac disease. You would need to find a dermatologist who is familiar with doing the biopsy correctly, however. The samples need to be taken next to the pustules, not on them . . . a mistake many dermatologists make when biopsying for dermatitis herpetiformis.
