ARCHIVED Ds Has Been Diagnosed With Celiac.....
Cheri A replied to wolfie's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I found that when we first went gluten free, that she needed to give up bread for awhile to "forget" what it tasted like. Now it's no problem, though I have to bake it once/twice a week cuz the store brands don't work for us. So for that interim, she did like Carol Fenster's banana bread at www.savorypalate.com I made a lot of that!! We mainly... -

ARCHIVED My Daughter May Be Allergic To Rice
Cheri A replied to AndreaB's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
((Andrea)) ~ first of all hugs! My dd is 7 years old and is allergic to rice. We found out last Fall when every meal she would get hives. After allergy testing, we found out wheat and rice. Celiac testing was inconclusive and going gluten-free helped tremendously with the stomach troubles and elimination troubles. Take rice entirely out of her diet... -

ARCHIVED Movie Popcorn
Cheri A replied to skipper30's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Sue ~ my dd is dairy free too. Try to find Vance's Dairy Free at your health food store. It's powdered and works great as a milk sub for baking and as a creamer. For the butter ~ we use Crystal Farms margarine (threw out the box) but they one that is dairy free sticks. There is also Earth's Balance in a tub at the hfs. -

ARCHIVED Should gluten-free Bread Fall A Little Bit When You Take It Out Of The Oven?
Cheri A replied to mamatide's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I had that problem w/the sinking in the middle and a soggy bottom a few times that it was doughy. I have a couple of tips: I switched to mini-loaf pans and recently to the size between regular and minis and it worked great. I also found a different bread recipe that seemed to work better for me. www.twinvalleymills.com I also read somewhere... -

ARCHIVED Annalise Roberts' Coconut Cake
Cheri A replied to Fiddle-Faddle's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Can you tell me if all her flour blends are rice? I have to sub everything with sorghum and would rather not fork out another $15 on a cookbook that won't work for us. Maybe I can email her? I agree on not posting the recipe here, though, without her permission. I posted a recipe once (and gave credit) and then the next week it was on this site's newsletter... -
