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

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.

      @par18, no, Scott's use of the term "false negative" is intentional and appropriate. The "total IGA" test is not a test used to diagnose celiac disease per se. The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the spectrum of components making it up will likely be also, including the celiac disease response spectrum. In other words, IGA deficiency may produce a tTG-IGA score that is negative that might have been positive had there not been IGA deficiency. So, the tTG-IGA negative score may be "false", i.e, inaccurate, aka, not to be trusted.

      This may be the problem. Every time you eat gluten it is like giving a booster shot to your immune system, telling it to react and produce antibodies again.

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get this test? So I did quit gluten and had the biopsy. It was negative for celiacs. I continued gluten free with iron supps and my ferritin came back up to a reasonable, but not great level of around 30-35.  Could there be something else going on? Is there any reason why my antibodies would be high (>80) with a negative biopsy? could me intestines have healed that quickly (3 months)?  I'm having a hard time staying gluten free because I am asymptomatic and i'm wondering about that biopsy. I do have the celiacs gene, and all of the antibody tests have always come back high. I recently had them tested again. Still very high. I am gluten free mostly, but not totally. I will occasionally eat something with gluten, but try to keep to a minimum. It's really hard when the immediate consequences are nil.  with high antibodies, the gene, but a negative biopsy (after 3 months strict gluten-free), do i really have celiacs? please say no. lol. i think i know the answer.  Asa
