    What about sorghum? Potato starch or corn starch might also work, if you cn have either of those.

    I try to, but the sad fact is the DH doesn't like Stevia, so I end up using Splenda. Wonder if I could start sneaking it in... Stevia you do have to be careful with... too much and it tastes bitter. Yuck.

    The raw veggies themselves can cause bloating. Especially broccoli. Have you tried Beano? Maybe that might help?

    I'm a bit late to the party, but here's my usual menu Beakfast - gluten-free sausages and gluten-free turkey bacon, sometimes gluten-free Heinz baked beans. Fresh squeezed juice Morning snack - raisins (I'm addicted to those things now) or a fruit leather. At least 2 mugs or more of green tea (no sugar - with lemon or the jasmine varieties) Lunch...

    You may just be allergic to rice. I'm allergic to both soy and rice so I end up avoiding most gltenn free products in general as I react to rice as badly as I do gluten. Nini also has a point about cross contamination. Also, there still could be gluten in your shampoos, toothpaste and other toiletries. You have to read the labels of the stuff...

    ARCHIVED Glutened Myself

    Diosa replied to CMCM's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    I can definitely relate. I did the same thing with a jar of garlic chili paste. I missed the wheat in it. ow. I hope you are feeling better soon. Take care!

    I use a lot of SBD and other low-carb recipes. They are so easy to fit into eating gluten-free and for me, was a good starting point on how to eat healthy for me. I omit all the creams/milk/dairy due to my lactose intolerance. I use the potato based milk when I can or a small amount of goat's milk Feta if I *really* need cheese (with digestive enzymes...

    Actually the rice noodles would be the problem. I'm allergic to rice. But on the plus side, I found some tapioca noodles that can be used in place. Pad Thai was totally back in the cards when i found those. I will probably be giving that recipe a try before too much longer. Thanks again.

    I actually use gluten-free cornflake crumbs. They really hold up to frying (especially deep fat frying) and get the nice crispy texture. I use them for chicken "tenders" and Scotch Eggs. YUM!

    Thank you so much for the recipe and the site! I love Thai food, and it gave me some wonderful ideas. I'm looking forward to trying my hand at some of those sauces and curries.

    Those Thai Kitchen ones look great. I saw they had a Tom Yum soup on there. I haven't had hot and sour soup in ages. Your recipes always rock. You really should consider a cookbook. ----- You guys are welcome on the soy sauce recipe. It was the best one I've found as it tastes the closest to what I'm used to. If you use real beef broth, I...

    Sure! I found this one off of Recipezaar, with my own modifications. I made sure to season the chicken with plenty of Vege-Sal and pepper. I also added a bit more vinegar than recommended, and made sure to use cider vinegar. For those who can't have vinegar, I bet a mix of lemon/lime juice would work really well. Also I de-glutened this by using cauliflower...

    Hmmm... Not really.. You could try playing with the portions of Crisco to margarine. I've done all margarine before and that always did well. The Crisco made it a bit flakier than the straight margarine, as the margarine only does make more moist and more of a shell, but less authentic tasting to my DH. That would be my thoughts? Let me know how it...

    I found a great sweet and sour chicken recipe online. It was so/gluten/dairy free. I made my own soy sauce as well. It's mostly beef broth with spices. It's not as dark as store bought, but it took no time to throw together.
  15. Diosa
    Definitely send me those nut roll and poppy seed recipes and let me see what I can do with them. Those you might have to be the guinea pig for, as I'm allergic to nuts. (at least as far as I know. Getting the full on allergy testing soon for the non-food stuff mostly) I'm wanting to try a variation and see how they freeze. If it works well, I may...

    Bob's red mill is fairly heavy on the garbanzo flour. May try this version from the glutenfreeforums.com: 2 cups Garfava Flour (2/3 part) 1 cup Sorghum Flour (1/3 part) 3 cups Tapioca Flour (1 part) 3 cups Cornstarch (1 part) I know the first time you try bean flour it can be a bit overwhelming. There are several different ones you can...

    You could try flouring the wax paper. Or even oiling it by rubbing a lightly oiled aper towel (or if you are like me, you keep the margarine wrappers for light oil jobs. )That might help get them back off, or use the paper itself to roll it? as in start rlling it with the paper then peel the paper back, start again, peel back, and just do it gradually...

    What did you try for eggroll wrappers flour-wise? Did they just not hold together? I found this recipe on Allrecipes.com. Looks like with a bit of tweaking this would work. INGREDIENTS: 1 egg, beaten 3/4 cup cold water 1/4 teaspoon salt 7/8 cup all-purpose flour 2 tablespoons peanut oil DIRECTIONS: In a medium bowl, whisk together...

    Mine aren't. They are yellow. I grind them in my old coffee grinder (now a spice mill).

    I used this dough for the pasties (recipe to follow) but it should work for pies and such I would think... Gluten Free Cornish Pasties For the pastry: 2 1/2 cups gluten-free flour (I used Bob’s Red Mill gluten-free All-purpose flour as I’m about out of my homemade blend) 1 tsp ground mustard seeds (this is a must) 1 tsp baking soda 1 tsp Gua...
  21. Diosa
    I am totally happy!! Today I made an attempt at gluten free pastry dough to make Cornish pasties (sort of like pot pies, but not in a pot/tin and not nearly as gooey) This was even more of an adventure since I also can't use rice nor soy flour as I'm allergic to both. I tried duplicating some recipes I've heard about/saw online and met with less-than-stellar...

    I do. Here's the one I found/cobbled together. Flourless chocolate cake with fresh raspberry sauce For the cake: 12 tablespoons unsalted butter 12 ounces bittersweet chocolate (semi-sweet will work, but make sure it’s good quality chocolate) 3 teaspoons vanilla extract 8 large eggs (separated) 2/3 cup brown sugar (packed) ...

    I had a wicked craving for chocolate yesterday, and decided to make some chocolate dipped strawberries and apples. Well, ok, it was mostly the strawberries, but I had leftover chocolate so I had the DH slice up a few apples for me. Most really good dark chocolate (Green and Black's, Ghiradelli's) are gluten free and dairy-free. I ended up making a ganache...

    I have to admit, my favorite cookbooks aren't gluten-free at all. They are my 15 minute Low Carb cookbook from Better Homes and Gardens and Cook it Quick from Weight Watchers (and the WW low carb cookbook as well) Low carb recipes are the easiest things to adapt to be gluten-free, as they tend to be a lot of meat and veggies. I actually only own one gluten...
  25. Diosa
    I have more cookbooks than any human should. My faves are my Weight watchers 15 minute one and my low carb 15 minute one. But I *LOVE* trawling Allrecipes.com and recipezaar.com for ideas. Even footnetwork.com has got stuff that's delicious and fun.
