I always say "for the love of mike". If you say "for pete's sake" or the "love of Pete", Peter shows up and says...hey, what did I do?? :lol: :lol:

Immigration, you say?

IH winds up....and..delivers:

Two Irishmen walk into a bar and ask for some lemon bars with powdered sugar and a lovely Polish girl, sitting nearby asks....

I've been thinking about this all night, and I still got nothin.

Before bed, I went in to wash my face and brush my pearlies and I noticed a thin layer of white powder on my eyelashes.

That stuff can travel.

Note to self: no more baking in the back seat.

For all of you who listened to my story, thanks---

and I received this email from my friend Elaine --regarding the LEMON bars and the pumpkin paleo bread I made with a dairy-free glaze for her gluten-free and DF sister:

"We loved the food. The lemon bars were fabulous! We need the recipes."

IH is going to bed feeling exonerated for the lemon bars debacle.

It's from Annalise Roberts' book Gluten Free Baking Classics.

Here is the website link to other recipes of hers. They use the same Brown Rice flour mix for all baked goods.

Open Original Shared Link

LEMON SQUARES

Yields 16 pieces (no, it doesn't. :rolleyes: It makes 9. But Sylvia used a 7 X 11 pan and she got more out of it that way)

Crust

1 cup brown rice flour mix* (below)

1 teaspoon xanthan gum

5 tablespoons butter

1 /4 cup granulated sugar

Baking spray

Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray bottom of 8–inch square baking pan.

Put flour, xanthan gum, butter, and sugar in bowl of electric mixer. Mix on low speed until crumbly. Press into bottom of baking pan.

Bake in center of oven for 15 minutes.

Lemon Filling

3 large eggs

3 /4 cup granulated sugar

2 tablespoons brown rice flour mix*

1 /2 teaspoon baking powder

1/8 teaspoon salt

1/3 cup fresh lemon juice

2 teaspoons grated lemon rind

1 /2 teaspoon pure lemon extract

Beat eggs in large bowl of electric mixer at high speed until foamy.

Add sugar, flour, baking powder, salt, lemon juice, lemon rind, and lemon extract.

Beat until well blended. Pour onto partially baked crust.

Bake in center of oven for 20 minutes or until set. Cool on wire rack. Cut into 16 squares or triangles; remove from baking pan onto serving plate. Sift powdered sugar over the tops (in the back seat of your car)

Brown Rice Flour Mix

2 cups brown rice flour

(extra finely ground)

2/3 cup potato starch (NOT potato flour)

1/3 cup tapioca flour

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      @Scott Adams That's actually exactly what I ended up asking for— vodka tonic with Titos. I saw on their website that Tito's is certified gluten-free (maybe many of the clear vodkas are, I don't know, I just happened to look up Tito's in advance). I should have actually specified the 'splash' though, because I think with the amount of tonic she put in there, ...

      Be interesting to see the effects of dairy reintroduction with gluten. As well as milk protein sensitivity in and of itself the casein part particularly has been shown to mimic gluten in about 50% of celiacs. Keep us posted!

      She has been dairy free for six years, so she’d already been dairy free for two years at her last testing and was dairy free for the entire gluten challenge this year as well (that had positive results). However, now that we’re doing another biopsy in six weeks, we decided to do everything we can to try to “see” the effects, so we decided this past week to...

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      Hi Christiana, Many thanks for your response. Interestingly, I too cannot eat wheat in France without feeling effects (much less than in the US, but won't indulge nonetheless). I also understand children are screened for celiac in Italy prior to starting their education. Wise idea as it seems my grandson has the beginning symptoms (several celiacs in his...

      Lol that’s so true! Hope you get clarity, it’s tough when there’s doubt. There’s so much known about celiac disease with all the scientific research that’s been done so far yet practically and clinically there’s also so much unknown, still. Out of curiosity what’s her dairy consumption like? Even compared to early years to now? Has that changed?...

I should have actually specified the 'splash' though, because I think with the amount of tonic she put in there, it did still end up fairly sweet.  Anyway, I think I've almost got this drink order down!

However, now that we’re doing another biopsy in six weeks, we decided to do everything we can to try to “see” the effects, so we decided this past week to add back in dairy temporarily for breakfast (milk and cereal combo like you said).

Wise idea as it seems my grandson has the beginning symptoms (several celiacs in his dad's family), but parents continue to think he's just being difficult.  Argh.  There's a test I took that diagnosed gluten sensitivity in 2014 via Entero Labs, and am planning on having done again.  Truth be told, I'm hoping it's the bromine/additives/preservatives as I miss breads and pastas terribly when home here in the states!  Be well and here's to our guts healing ❤️

There’s so much known about celiac disease with all the scientific research that’s been done so far yet practically and clinically there’s also so much unknown, still. Out of curiosity what’s her dairy consumption like? Even compared to early years to now? Has that changed? Calcium is dependent in the mechanism of antigen presenting cells in the gut. High calcium foods with gluten grains can initiate inflammation greater.  This is why breakfast cereals and milk combo long term can be a ticking time bomb for genetically susceptible celiacs (not a scientific statement by any means but my current personal opinion based on reasoning at present). Milk and wheat are the top culprits for food sensitivity. Especially in childhood. There are also patient cases of antibodies normalising in celiac children who had milk protein intolerance/ delayed type allergy. Some asymptomatic. There were a couple of cases of suspected celiacs that turned out to have milk protein intolerance that normalised antibodies on a gluten containing diet. Then there were others that only normalised antibodies once gluten and milk was eliminated. Milk kept the antibodies positive. Celiac disease is complicated to say the least.
