  1. Hi Janet, Thanks for the tips. I bought a bag of Bob's Red Mill brown rice flour and will check at Whole Foods tomorrow for the Authentic Foods super fine. I did buy some sweet rice flour at the Asian market nearby and it was gritty, too. But I may try the super fine sorghum flour and see how that goes. My cupboard is starting to look like a mish...
  2. Thanks for the welcome and looking forward to getting through this with my new extended family. My husband still travels quite a bit, but wasn't home much when kids were younger. We were trying to think of a screen name and he actually came up with it. I thought it was cute and accurate. Love the license plate.
  3. My daughter had a positive biopsy and negative blood panel. I recently had a positive blood panel. My Endomysial Antibody IgA, TTG was 71 and flagged as abnormal high. I am waiting on results of biopsy. The gastro doc said she didn't see signs of celiac, but we'll see what biopsy says. My daughter's doctor wasn't even looking for celiac but took...
  4. My daughter and I are three weeks into gluten-free diet and I am trying to tackle the favorites. Made tollhouse cookies last night with brown rice flour, tapioca and potato starch. Followed a recipe and they actually looked like regular cookies except for that wonderful chewy texture that, you know, comes from gluten. I thought they tasted gritty but the...
  5. My 21 year old daughter and I are newbies, too. She had a positive biopsy and negative blood panel. Her gastro doc wasn't looking for celiac when he did the endo but saw that the small intestine looked a little off and just took a couple biopsies from that area. It came back near total flattening of villi. Since she and I share similiar stomach problems...
  6. Hi, I am two weeks into learning how to cook gluten-free. Made my first cookbook purchases last night at Barnes & Noble. Bought Gluten-Free Quick & Easy by Carol Fenster. She gives an eight week plan that includes leftovers and lots of good advice. Good easy family recipes and she makes planning pretty simple. Also bought Gluten-Free Baking...
  7. Today I went through all my white rice flour, made two loaves of bread that went into trash, used six extra large eggs and pretty much my whole day and still didn't come up with a loaf of edible bread. Pamela's is great, but I am looking for a loaf of white bread that tastes like white bread. So far, I am very frustrated and wondering how I should approach...
  8. I'm having a really frustrating day with my bread machine. Tried to make a loaf of country white bread using my Breadman Pro recipe and they had a misprint for flour measurements and the dough looked like a rock. After a call to customer service and finding out there was a mistake in manual, I started fresh with right measurements. I think it looks iffy...
  9. New to this also. Received positive bloodwork last week. My daughter had positive biopsy but negative bloodwork recently. We are both on gluten-free diet now and trying to figure this all out. I have had a rash on arms that is itchy and sometimes blisters. I don't think it's DH as I'm extremely sensitive so sun exposure. But who knows. Dealt with cataracts...
  10. Hi Marcia, Tried Pamela's Wheat Free Bread Mix and pretty good. Didn't like the bean taste either on BRM. There is a really good site to go to for gluten-free recipes and bread machine tips. It's www.glutenfreegoddess.com. Her name is Karina and the site is outstanding. I'm going to try her brownies today. Just bought a Breadman Pro and used her tips...
