Latest Celiac Disease News & Research:

    It annoys me when a friend calls me up just to say "Hey I read gluten intolerance isn't real!!!" and then I have to tell them how I have Celiac and that is totally different. I think that article does mention Celiac, which is good. I think a lot of people who think they have a problem with gluten may have it mistaken for something else... just eating a...

    They do have a big section on cooking recipes as well, like pan fried breaded pork chops, pasta recipes, fried chicken, chicken pot pie, all things that use direct gluten substitutes, so it is very helpful with those as well. When you get away from recipes that use flour, you really can use any cookbook for other stuff. I had a cooking learning curve once...

    Many people cannot tolerate the bean flour base in Bobs Red Mill Mixes and flours. That is probably why they came out with their new cup for cup flour, lots of people thought the other stuff tasted weird and was too different. Good for them to keep up with the gluten-free times, though.

    Haha yeah, a popular blogger sells gluten-free skull and crossbones shirts, but I feel the same way, don't want to open myself up to too much conversation. Would be good to wear to a gluten-free event or support group!

    It is like all baking recipes. Not just bread, they kind of hit on everything. Real helpful for it all, since sometimes subbing in the flour doesn't quite work, sometimes it does.

    I like the King Arthur Flour gluten-free chocolate cake mix. Makes two layers (betty crocker ones only make a small cake or one layer) and stays fresh for a long time. Nice chocolatey flavor. I use the icing in the tub from the store... I want to say Duncan Hines is the gluten-free one, but they all look very similar. But at least one brand has gluten-free...

    I can vouch for this pie crust recipe. Been using it to test from scratch pies for thanksgiving, works really well. Just stop right before you think it is mixed well enough so you don't overwork it. KAF gluten-free stuff is free from top 8 allergens, last time I checked. I omit the instant clearjel, and use lemon juice. I also let the dough sit overnight...

    ARCHIVED Carlos O'kelly's?

    LauraTX replied to SMRI's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    Looking at the menu online, it says it is new, so I would treat it with caution just as any place you go eat out at, but it looks like with the right staff, may be a delicious success.

    Oh, and on the Chebe rolls, I wanted to add, that you can make them ahead of time and freeze them uncooked and formed into the balls, then right on to the baking sheet and add 2-3 min to the time. That way I had them fresh baked Thanksgiving morning without all the effort since I was making other stuff.

    I have been slacking off not posting what I make here, I got a bad migraine from my last IVIG that is still not totally over 10 days later. Lets see, recently I have been testing pies for thanksgiving. Think I have the pie crust figured out, using the KAF recipe: http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/gluten-free-pie-crust-recipe (with lemon juice and...

    Welcome to the forum, GF Pioneer! The ingredients you state for the sauce sound fine. If you post in the forum part of the website, you will get more replies, since it is more set up for conversation. Hope you feel better!

    Last year I made this recipe basically used a whole loaf of Udis white, and a pan of cornbread, so had to increase liquid ingredients accordingly. Open Original Shared Link For the cornbread I use this recipe with just like 2 Tbsp of sugar (sweet cornbread is no good in dressing) Open Original Shared Link And for rolls, instead of trying to pass...

    Chia seeds are naturally gluten-free. You do have to make sure you get a brand that is not processed on shared equipment, stuff like that, same as any other foods.

    Last year I used Gluten Free Nation pie shells (Houston based bakery that sells in groceries around here) and they turned out well for my pumpkin and pecan pies. This year I really want to do a lattice top apple pie for Thanksgiving so I just tested out this crust recipe: Open Original Shared Link and it works fabulously. The dough handles well, and the...

    Awesome! I love Alton Brown and still watch Good Eats reruns all the time. I want cupcakes now.... gonna write this recipe down!
  16. LauraTX
    I highly recommend using a flour blend like Kind Arthur Flour or Pamelas, and on their website they each have a ton of recipes that you can use so you don't have to experiment much. When I was diagnosed, I went to my library and requested every book with gluten in the name, so I could try out cookbooks before I buy. The best gluten-free baking cookbook...

    I met a lady who had a lot of health problems, multiple autoimmune issues and had just had a bout with cancer. A while after meeting her she nonchalantly tells me she was diagnosed with Celiac disease 10 years ago, but just never went gluten-free, and maybe she will do it now. I thought inside my head for a few seconds and decided I would just respond to...

    How Cool! I will send you a pm so I dont give my location away, lol.
  19. LauraTX
    Ack! I hope they are unopened. But this is a good example of the usefulness of the forum. Glad you were able to catch em.
  20. LauraTX
    I would buy another brand next time, people who try to say they are safe on a technicality like that are not going to get my money.

    Lindt in the US usually has barley malt flavoring in it, so I stay away from the brand. Hopefully it is not a manufacturing process change and you will still be able to get that one. What country are you in, Japan?
  22. LauraTX
    The bottom line is that gluten intolerance is not cut and dry... if you feel better eating gluten free, and have exhausted all testing methods, then do what makes you feel better.

    Welcome to the Forum, Needleup. The post you are replying to is from 2010 so you may not get a good conversation going with the old posters who may not be around. Feel free to start a new post about any of your issues to get some better responses.

    Well, for different regular gluteny breads, there are going to be different levels of gluten. That question has been asked on the forum before, and the bottom line is that we aren't going to have an answer for that. The answer to any problem with gluten is to cut it out 100%, a low gluten diet type of thing is not going to fully help anyone with an actual...

    I, too, would rather go to costco but there is a sams right in my town, and the costco is a long drive along a toll road. So, Sams it is for me, for now. That is good info about the pizza... now I want pizza! LOL Which meatballs are gluten-free at sams?
