  1. Can't wait to see what you cooked up. I got my Barry farm order today. I plan to make gluten-free flax bread. I will grease the pan like the comments say is best. I just to decide how I will make the gluten free flour, I could just use bob's red mill all purpose flour for the first time: Open Original Shared Link I followed the recipe substituting bob...
  2. Barry Farms responded should have the order soon! Can't wait to make bread.
  3. My order from Barry Farms still hasn't come, been about 25 days. I emailed order@barryfarm.com on Friday asking for an update on my order status, and no response. How long does Barry Farms usually take? If there is a delay does Barry Farms attempt to contact you? Should I try a different email or be patient? I now emailed info@barryfarm.com and no response...
  4. I usually use about 2 chickens worth of giblets + bones to make chicken vegetable soup. I started my first garden this year. Lots of plants, only a few beans so far. In my opinion the secret to cooking is planning. I mean really how much work is it to defrost a chicken, brine a chicken, or let a chicken air dry? Yet, the difference is amazing. Now I'm getting...
  5. I've been gluten free for a little under 6 months now, started in mid Feb. I finally feel like my diet restriction is no big deal. I can eat healthy and yummy foods that are gluten free. I just ate a roasted chicken that I brined myself, patted down, dried over night. The chicken was the best chicken any of my family had ever ate. The best part is the...
  6. Thanks I'll try my local Korean supermarket, thought I'm not sure I'll be able to read the labels.
  7. I'm thinking about ordering from barry farm's this order: 330572 Psyllium Husks, Ground, 1 lb. $ 5.49 $ 5.49 S&H: (Lbs.) 1.20 M008 Guar Gum 8 oz. $ 2.05 $ 2.05 S&H: (Lbs.) 0.70 330570 Potato Starch 1 lb. $ 2.49 $ 2.49 S&H: (Lbs.) 1.20 B1534 T'eff Flour, 1 lb. $ 3.19 $ 3.19 S&H: (Lbs.) ...
  8. I'm not so much looking for gluten free bread that is like glutenized bread, but instead gluten-free bread that tastes good that I can handle. I'm going to go to my local supermarket and price out the ingredients for Ryberg's egg loaf recipe.
  9. My hope is that if I make enough good gluten-free food that my family will basically convert to gluten-free by convince. Though I suspect my family will still buy store bought cakes and pastries. The problem is I'm spending too much on gluten-free food already and if I take the time to explain how expensive the gluten-free ingredients are I'll get in trouble...
  10. Hey you all, I've been trying my hand at cooking gluten free. I bought 8 oz of xantham gum 11$ and 44 oz of baking flour $6. I made banana bread and it was great. I've made pancakes 3 times now and all three times the pancakes were better than any recipe I've tried before. I share my kitchen with my parents so I don't really want to buy a lot of ingredients...
  11. Well I've been consuming yogurt in my smoothies everyday for at least a week now. I've heard of sauerkraut but not kefir nor kim chi.
  12. Alright I understand. I guess what I'm really asking is how much yogurt should I be eating a day?
  13. In my fruit smoothies I've been including yogurt, Brand Fage or something. My system seems to be able to tolerate some dairy or otherwise the yogurt would make me worse. I've heard that Celiac can make you lactose intolerant. So how much yogurt you think a Celiac could handle?
  14. Good point, I didn't make it clear that I gradually introduced the purging elements. The heat and sweating was natural, then I started drinking more water in response. A few weeks went by and then I started going to the gym, working progressively harder. In fact I didn't so much as work out as sweat a lot. Next, I started eating the watermelon and...
  15. Lately I've been doing sweaty work, eating fresh watermelon, drinking fruit smoothies, and consuming hot soup. I feel great, despite my recent gluten in take (about 2 weeks ago). My acid reflux has stopped, I'm farting more, belching less, stomach is calm, and just feeling good in general. I've been thinking back about last summer and spring when I...
  16. I guess I'm calling the 1800 number on the back of the box.
  17. One of my CVS brand allergy medicines has listed under inactive ingredients: pregelantinized starch and starch.
  18. Since I last posted my symptoms have gotten worse. I ate the fries on Tuesday. I seemed ok/fine until about Saturday when my back felt sore from exercise, that should have healed by then. Monday, today my back is still sore and my other muscles are tense, despite only mild exercise, mostly walking. Today, Monday I woke up in a bad mood and angry. I...
  19. Hey, I accidentally ate some gluten twice in less than three days. Both times were fries. Apparently Wendy's uses the same frier for a lot of food. I came during a busy time so I can assume I had some gluten. Another time was at Costco I was trying a free sample, and low and behold the potato fries had wheat in them. I didn't get any severe reaction...
  20. I just observed something else that may involve celiac. In the bathroom I noticed I have no pimples. I haven't had any pimples for about 2 months, approx one month after going gluten free! Hopefully this info will be of some use to someone. I'm using this thread like a journal or progress report on myself going gluten-free.
  21. I'm starting to feel better. I've been gluten free since Feb. 22ish, or three months now. I've noticed that I have increased stamina and I don't have to eat quite so much. I'm wondering what would cause increased stamina and not having to eat so much. My dad was often called "hollow-leg" because my dad could eat so much and not get fat. I'm wondering...
  22. I live in America so I'm not so sure eating corn is a good idea, unless the corn is from a local farmer. The reason being hybrid seeds and GMOs make allergies skyrocket, let alone all the shenanigans with HFCS. I've been reflecting lately and I think I'm having an intolerance to all dairy. I'm not sure if I'm just intolerant to dairy or intolerant to gluten...
  23. Here's my totally non-expert opinion. Whenever the body goes through a major change in diet, for example eliminating gluten, the body is forced to change. In other words, you are changing your body's chemistry by going gluten-free. Now about me! I've been good about going gluten-free since my last post. I've also tried milk free, but I cannot bear...
  24. Great, not what I wanted to hear. I guess I'll learn eventually. I just feel sick almost all the time. A gluten-free diet has already put such a strain on the family budget. Lately I feel like I have to pee all the time. I'll go pee and within 30 secs I have to pee again.
  25. Hmm, I've been having gluten free toast in my family's toaster that has toast contain gluten toasted everyday. Should I be worried about such a small dosage of gluten? That's cool about raw milk. In school I was brainwashed to think raw milk was bad because of no pasteurization and to drink skim milk. Now in 2010 I find skim milk is the least healthy,...
