Having A Problem With Brown Rice Pasta!


tenaciousdarnell

Recommended Posts

tenaciousdarnell Newbie

Does anyone have any advise on how I can keep my brown rice pasta from soaking up my delish sauce when it's leftovers? I have to cook in bulk because of my schedule, so I make a huge pasta dish with tons of sauce, then portion it out... then the next day - all of the sauce is gone and has been sucked up by my pasta!!!

How can I keep this from happening!??!

Thanks

We have tried rice pasta and found that it breaks up easy. Corn pasta holds better and tastes better (I think). It acts like the wheat pasta.

I can't have corn, but thank you for the suggestion!

I keep the sauce and pasta separate.

I like it better the next day when the noodles soak it up! :D

I second Skylark - keep them separate.

I looked around online and nope, no secret to keeping it frombreaking up but to keep them seperate to start with before eating.

And a third vote for keeping the pasta and sauce separate. You know what? You can get quinoa, millet, buckwheat and sweet potato pasta that tastes miles better than rice or corn pastas in my opinion. But of course that is just a matter of taste. Just know there are lots of options available! Or, if you want to make your own pasta, I have a killer recipe that does NOT fall apart or become gloopy, even the next day. Another quick idea - toss on some pesto for even more flavour.

I love my brown rice pasta and haven't liked anything else I've tried so I just quit trying other kinds. I usually keep my pasta and sauce separate unless I'm packing something for a work lunch. When I do that I just add a little extra sauce so it doesn't seem dry when I get around to eating it. I like the flavor a bit better after it soaks up the extra sauce. I know not all brands stand up, but my pasta doesn't fall apart so I have no problems there.

I like corn pasta but some variety might be nice.

Can you post your pasta recipe? Quinoa? Thank you. :)

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      How do I contact someone at celiac.com concerning the cessation of my weekly e-newsletter? I had been receiving it regularly for years. When I tried to sign-up on the website, my email was not accepted. I tried again with a new email address and that was rejected as well. Thank you in advance!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
