Nonfat Milk Powder


CeliacMamma

Recommended Posts

CeliacMamma Newbie

Does anyone know of any non fat dry milk powder that is certified gluten free?  Organic Valley used to make one but they stopped.  America's Test Kitchen cook books have this as an ingredient in their main flour mixture, and recommend the use of Organic Valley for the product to buy.  When I asked them for a replacement they said they can only recommend a nationally available brand, which doesn't help since the only brand they recommend isn't sold anymore. 

Thanks,

I think I just used Carnation.  Its just milk with vitamins.  It may even say gluten-free on it?

You can always just sub regular milk for the powdered and liquid.  Powdered milk is nice if you are using a bread maker and setting up the night before or storing a dry mix to save time.

 It is nice to have powdered milk on hand for earthquakes.  I had to drink it as a kid.  It was cheap and when money was tight or we were snowed in, my Mom had it in her pantry.  I recall her  crawling, yes crawling, to the corner store for fresh milk after an ice storm in Chicago while my brother and I were made to stand in the parlor window so that she could see us.  After that, she always kept powdered milk in the house.  ?

Carnation is "Instant" and they specifically say not to use Instant.  (It is marked Gluten free and would be great if "Instant" was ok)

The Walmart brand Great Value says that it may contain trace amounts of wheat on it's labeling, thus ruling it out for us.

We use the ATK cookbook and use the Carnation brand of instant  milk for the flour mixes...always have great results.

I don't get it.  Isn't all powdered milk "instant"  vs. fresh or canned?

That is good to know.  I will try it.  When I asked ATK they said not to do it, but then again they haven't given me any alternatives either.  Thanks

Ditto for me!!!! In fact, I'm looking at my ATK Cookbook Vol. 1, pg. 13 right now. In the top right column there it is titled "Using milk powder" and it doesn't say a word about not using anything called "instant" milk powder. I think you must have gotten some newbie at ATK who didn't know what they were talking about. I've never in my life seen a milk powder that wasn't instant. All of them, you just add water & stir to make milk.

Interesting. We don't have any at the moment and don't use it very much except for the bread my husband occasionally makes (gluten bread that I don't eat anyways.) I'll check out the package itself next time we buy it. Why would they put gluten in milk I wonder?

In some brands they use barley malt in it, malted milk is very common in powdered form and used in some recipes. -_- I found powdered coconut milk recently and found it works good in some interesting ways in cooking. Very handy if you only need a few tbsp of the full fat stuff and not a whole can, you just adjust up the liquids proportionately.

Butthat is not the product they are talking about.  Malted milk is called " malted Milk".  It isn't trying to disguise itself as regular powdered milk.

First off your typo was misread as "ButtHat"....second I should have elaborated on what I was saying and where I was going with that thought. If the company makes both malted milk, as in milk with barley malt, and instant plain powdered milk in the same facility could it be called gluten free? What if they use the same production or packaging lines on rotation?  I think this is where the scare might be. NOW there are companies that do just plain powdered milk I am sure. And I am sure the ones they do use a shared facility like I mentioned would say so.

It is " but that" and I missed the space....

      Yes.  Proportionately a small piece to a toddler is like a whole slice to an adult.  This is an important clue.  She was doing well, accidentally ate gluten and later the old behavior returned. I remember reading posts here of people reacting to a kiss from someone who had just eaten gluten. Recent research indicates that 40% of first degree relatives of someone with Celiac have undiagnosed Celiac Disease.  Father, mother, siblings.  There is a whole list of symtoms of "silent celiac".  Here is an article of symptoms possibly mistaken for other causes than Celiac Disease.  When I finally stopped gluten at 63 years old, I counted 19 things that improved, including lifelong mouthbreathing.  I never smelled bad things, so I as a kid, I learned to respond to the other kid's response in order to not seem weird. I really recommend you pursue testing for all the family if you can, and the whole family following GFD.  It is difficult at first, but the benefits will be worth it.

      I get these but where we are, they are called chicken potstickers. I would obviously suggest that it is the ginger in the product that is causing a stimulative digestive effect! So you might want to do what I do, just cook one of them with the rest of your meal so you don't have the same effect. I love the Feel Good products but they are on the expensive side. (I also drink Reed's ginger brew so in general, ginger is a friend of mine..when delivered at the right dose). Hope this helps and have a warm healthy week!

      Has anyone had Steatorrhea (oily/fatty poop) as a temporary glutening symptom or should I be concerned I've introduced chronic gluten somewhere (like in meds)? I haven't gotten Steatorrhea since before I went gluten free. However, I moved in the past few weeks and haven't been as careful - I've eaten at restauraunts with cross contamination but only experienced minor symptoms like headache. The past week, I ate only gluten free food at home except I went to Red Robin and got fries (told them gluten-free; allergy). The next day I had Steatorrhea and the day after that.   I know it's a symptom of malabsorption so I was wondering if it was the kind of thing that could be caused by one event or if it was due to a more chronic issue. Of course I will speak to a GI but I recently moved and need to find one.   Thank you for any info

      A relative has opened another door for me on this issue -- the possibility of menopause raising HDL. Most studies suggest that menopause decreases HDL-C, however, one study found that often it's increased. "Surprisingly, HDL cholesterol was higher (p < 0.001) in postmenopausal women by 11%. Further, the number of women who had low HDL cholesterol was higher in pre vs. postmenopausal women. The range of ages were 26–49 years for pre-menopausal and 51–74 years for postmenopausal women. "This interesting finding has also been observed by other investigators. It is possible that the observed increase in HDL-C in postmenopausal women could be due to a protective mechanism to counterbalance the deleterious effects of biomarkers associated with menopause. However, further studies are needed to confirm this theory. And to the point raised earlier about functionality: "...some patients with elevated HDL-C concentrations could remain at risk for coronary events if HDL is not functional and some authors have suggested that this could be the case for menopausal women." Postmenopausal Women Have Higher HDL and Decreased Incidence of Low HDL than Premenopausal Women with Metabolic Syndrome. By no means to I think this is definitive, rather food for thought.
