Gluten Free Bread


Guest DanceswithWolves

I have some gluten-free Kinnickinick (or however ya spell it..lol ) bread and I was wondering where everyone stores their bread.

Should I keep it in the fridge?

Doesn't bread mold faster if it is humid conditions or does it spoil around cold?

I always wondered that about bananas too.

I always keep my gluten-free bread in the freezer, the manufacturers suggest it and it doesn't have any preservatives usually, so it keeps much longer in there. If I make fresh I preslice the loaf so I can pull a slice out at a time and defrost or toast. Kinnikinnick's are presliced so they are easy to pull out of the freezer too...

I second the freezer recomendation. That is where I keep all the Kinnikinnick products, and then I take them out when I want to use them and thaw for a short time in the microwave. I have not liked the texture as much if they thaw on the counter, or are kept in the fridge thawed. They seem too dry that way. The freezer-microwave method keep the bread nice and moist.

God bless,

I just noticed the part about the bananas!

I have no idea if they spoil faster when exposed to cold, since we keep them on the counter and the temperature in our house stays between 65-78 degrees from summer to winter. They still only last a few days in that temperature range.

When the bananas go bad (over ripe, too much brown spots) I peel them and freeze them in a ziploc baggie. By winter, when I do a LOT of baking, I have enough frozen bananas to make about a dozen loaves of banana bread. My family loves banana bread and this is how I make sure the bananas don't go to waste. I do have to warm you that when you thaw the bananas for cooking they are a brown slimy mess, but they have the BEST flavor for the bread! So as long as you don't mind what they look like before mixing them in to the bread mix...This way the bread has sop much more flavor than if you used the just ripe yellow bananas, or even just getting over ripe bananas.

God bless,

And I second the banana advice. I missed that one too! It is true (to a point), that the uglier that banana, the better the banana bread! :P

(Want to share your recipe Mariann?) I came up with one I liked for banana nut muffins, but haven't tried it for bread yet...

I will, when I dig out the recipe. I don't bake in the summer and the temps around here are still close to 100. When I get it out I will share it. :D

      Hi all I’ve been celiac for 4 years now, I’ve done pretty well to avoid it thus far. Last night I took the wrong pizza out of the freezer and ate the whole lot!! The non gluten and gluten pizza boxes are both very similar.   2 hours later I was throwing up violently on my hands and knees over the loo.  .horrendous stomach pains,  My hair was wet from sweat every part of my body was wet. What an awful experience, just had a bad headache today  fortunately.    Is their any products/pills anyone takes if they have realised they have just been glutened to make the symptoms a little less worse.  thanks

      Yes, do take your B Complex with Benfotiamine or Thiamax.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins in the B Complex to make energy and enzymes, so best to take them together earlier in your day.  Taking them too close to bedtime can keep you too energetic to go to sleep.   The Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine is Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride, another form of thiamine the body likes.  The Thiamine HCl just helps the Benfotiamine work better.   Read the label for how many milligrams are in them.  The Mega Benfotiamine is 250 mgs.  Another Benfothiamine has 100 mgs.  You might want to start with the 100 mg.    I like to take Thiamax in the morning with a B Complex at breakfast.  I take the Benfotiamine with another meal.  You can take your multivitamin with Benfotiamine at lunch.   Add a magnesium supplement, too.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make some important enzymes.  Life Extension makes Neuro-Mag, Magnesium Threonate, which is really beneficial.  (Don't take Magnesium Oxide.  It's not absorbed well, instead it pulls water into the digestive tract and is used to relieve constipation.)  I'm not a big fan of multivitamins because they don't always dissolve well in our intestines, and give people a false sense of security.  (There's videos on how to test how well your multivitamin dissolves.).  Multivitamins don't prevent deficiencies and aren't strong enough to correct deficiencies.   I'm happy you are trying Thiamax and Benfotiamine!  Keep us posted on your progress!  I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.

      I looked further into Thiamax Vitamin B1 by objective nutrients and read all the great reviews. I think I will give this a try. I noticed only possible side affect is possibly the first week so body adjusts. Life Extensions carries Benfotiamine with Thiamine and the mega one you mentioned. Not sure if both in one is better or seperate. some reviews state a laxative affect as side affect. SHould I take with my super B complex or just these 2 and multivitamin? I will do further research but I appreciate the wonderful explanation you provided on Thiamine.

      Thanks I am mostly looking for everyday staples and easy meal ideas nothing too specialty if possible.

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?
