    Yeah that is the pan I'm using; although mine only has 2 slots. But same brand and style.

    Wow this sounds incredible!! I think you just gave me a reason to go back to London

    I actually started to feel better right away. I was really sick by the time I was diagnosed though. I was pretty much nauseaus for about 9 years and right before I was diagnosed it was to the point that I'd be pulling over on the side of the Cross Bronx Expwy. to uncontrollably puke after eating. I had total villoscophy. The doctor said it was one of the...

    ARCHIVED Pf Changs

    My favorite is the Ginger Chicken and the Gluten Free Lettuce Wraps. Everytime I go I tell myself I should try something else but those are just so darn good

    I did this at a place called 1-2-3 Dinner. I have to say if nothing else, it really showed me how easy cooking is. This sounds odd, but before I went to this I thought cooking had to be a huge lengthy production. This sort of eluded my fear of cooking and now I cook almost every night.

    It seems like I am pretty opposite of most of these posts. I am very social, outgoing and talkative. I'll talk to just about anyone about anything. Co-workers joke with me that I'm like the mayor of the building because I know everyone. However that said, I am not one for talking about my feelings or problems. So I guess you could say in that respect I...

    I've dealt with the to skinny comments my whole life so I know how upsetting that can be. Everyone is dieting and wants to be thin, but G-d forbid you're naturally thin and maybe a little less than what you should typically weigh and everyone feels the need to point it out as if you don't know. I always swore the next person that came up to me and said, ...

    I take a very similar approach to this. I always start by saying I'm really sorry, I'm a huge pain but I'm allergic (I use the word allergic because people understand that better than intolerant) to anything with wheat or gluten. This includes anything with flour (it's amazing how many people don't know that flour is wheat). Can you please check with the...

    I'm actually off from work this week so DH and I are gonna go to Mama's in a bit for some yummy Italian food, and maybe he'll make me a flourless chocolate souffle later!!! Thanks all!!

    Another vote for Sweet Baby Ray's.

    I can't believe I've beenn gluten-free for 1 year!!!! The first couple months were a little tough but it quickly got easier. Thanks to everyone here, I'm not sure what I would have done without everyone's knowledge and help.

    Ok the pizza thing I could deal with (and have), but the birthday cake thing is just plain MEAN!!! I'm so sorry. As some of the others have said, I think you need to let your husband know how upsetting that was to you and put it in his hands to make sure that situation is never repeated. Unfortunately the pizza thing, well as much as none of us want to...

    That is awesome!! What brand name is it under?
  14. jkmunchkin
    I think it specifies not to use quick rise yeast. I can double check later.

    Try making it again. Maybe there was just a hiccup somewhere. This bread was the 1st time I ever tried to make bread, and I'd consider myself a near novice baker and it came out great. Like someone said, it might have had to do something with the temperature. I know Annalise is pretty specific about the temperature of the water you add. I got a little digital...

    Unfortunately I don't know anything about MO. Sorry. As for the Japanese places, you need to bring your own gluten-free Soy Sauce and have them make it in a safe pan in the back. If it's like any of the hibachi places here they pour the soy sauce on the food as they're making it on the grill. Regular soy sauce has wheat in it.

    Thanks guys!!!! I was afraid it would come off as b$tchy that I didn't think it was right for someone to post the recipe. I'm glad everyone seems to agree. Oh and as Fiddle-Faddle said; I have tried several of the other recipes and they are all incredible!! My non-celiac sister even told me the other day that everything I have made from this book is...

    Well there is PF Chang's which is Asian Fusion type Chinese food and they have a gluten-free menu. Other than that, there are a few random Chinese restaurants with gluten-free menus. Not sure where you live but in Rye Brook, NY (Westchester) there is a place called Ray's Cafe that has a gluten-free menu and it is fantastic. They have more the typical Chinese...

    There is a Mexican restaurant in my town that I love. I always get the enchiladas (without the sauce becausse it is thickened with flour). I forget exactly what they call the dish but it is 3 enchiladas - 1 chicken, 1 beef and 1 cheese. They serve it with rice and refried beans and it's awesome!!! Even though I know it's made with corn tortillas I always...

    I definately think this is the 1 book everyone should invest in. I've tried several recipes from it and they are all incredible gluten-free baked goods and breads. I think the book was only like $15, and Annalise is such a wonderful person and worked so hard on making these recipes as incredible as they are I feel like posting the recipe is like taking...

    We go to Montauk every year for 4th of July with DH's family and I was a tad bit nervous because this was the 1st year I am there gluten-free. It wasn't the easiest, but I brought blueberry muffins from Whole Foods for breakfast and some apples with peanut butter that I could snack on in the room if I got hungry; and I happy to report I got through the long...

    My favorites are: Haagen Dazs - Coffee Ice Cream (yet ironicly I hate coffee), Rocky Road Ben & Jerry's - Chunky Monkey, Cherry Garcia and my latest discovery by them, Pistachio. If you like Pistachio ice cream (even if you normally don't but you like pistachios), you must try this. It is the most incredible pistachio ice cream ever. It has whole...

    I can't think of a single reason why you shouldn't go gluten-free if you feel better eating that way regardless of what the tests say. Like some of the others said, it sounds like your doctors are just trying to "spare you the pain of eating gluten free." I think for people who don't require a gluten free diet the thought of having to alter your diet...

    I've actually heard celiac is really common in (ironically enough) Wheaton Terriers. LOL!! Glad to hear your dog is feeling better.
