Food Processor

I have a nice Cuisineart food processor that I used before going gluten free. Do I really need to replace it?

Thanks

Do you feel you could get it clean? The bowls are pretty simply made, without alot of hiding places. Maybe you could get a replacement bowl? I find, from my glutenous days, that white vinegar disolve the flour pretty well. I have a mini one, but I never put bread in it that I remember.

I didn't replace my food processors. I just scrubbed everything and ran it through the dishwasher. I didn't put bread in mine though. I use them mostly for chopping/shredding veggies and pureeing soups. Rubbing alcohol should dissolve gluten if you're concerned.

The only things I replaced were cutting boards, my colander because it was so hard to scrub every single hole that could have a bit of pasta trapped, and my old wok that had soy sauce in the seasoning. (I gave that to a student friend.)

I was the pie dough queen and used my food processor for mainly this purpose. I will try the rubbing alcohol and see what happens as I don't currently have the funds to replace it.

      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>"

      Sounds great, we also have lots of recipes here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/

      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. My cupboard now holds gluten-free baking flour, tapioca flour, rice flour, almond flour, gluten-free oats, gluten-free grits, gluten-free cornmeal, and a few gluten-free baking mixes for occasional use. On the odd occasion when we have pasta, it is gluten-free - nobody notices the difference in the "new" lasagna. I have found several good recipes that are gluten-free and everyone loves them. A family favorite is the Tarta de Santiago, a naturally gluten-free treat made with almond flour.

      This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      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 and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.
