Nonfat Milk Powder

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....

      My Adult daughter is blaming me for her "possible" Celiac disease.

      By Marie70 · Posted

      Hello, My mid twenties daughter is blaming my husband and I for her celiac disease.  She has not been diagnosed at all, but GOOGLE has informed her she has it.  She is going to go get tested now, but my question is, did we?  I was not the best cook while she was growing up and often made quick processed food for meals.  She is blaming us for what she ate growing up and is angry that we didn't feed her better.  I don't know how to react and all I could tell her was I was sorry.  Her older brother has Crohn's disease and he was diagnosed as a teenager.  She is also furious with us that we didn't change his diet either.  I don't know why I didn't and I am having so much guilt I don't even know how to handle this situation.  Both sides of our family have a history of IBS, Celiac and Crohn's disease.   I guess I just wanted to hear from anyone out there that can either point blame at me (I can accept it) or tell me that the food she ate growing up didn't have an affect on her.  I am thinking it most likely did. Thank you, Marie

      High blood test numbers - with scales. Any advice?

      By RMJ · Posted

      I’d say celiac is likely.  Please continue to eat plenty of gluten until your endoscopy to be sure that any gluten-related damage can be seen.  Plus it gives you one last chance to enjoy your favorite gluten-containing foods. I hope the endoscopy/biopsies give you a definitive answer.

      By TexasCeliacNewbie · Posted

      I do also have the bloating, gas, constipation, hair loss, an auto-splenectomy that no one can see any reason for and some elevated liver enzymes that don't seem to have a cause, I also have joint pain and some spinal compression fractures that have no explanation.  I am only 42 so haven't had a bone density test yet.  My calcium was normal, but my D was a little low.  They haven't checked for any other vitamin deficiencies yet.  My blood test for an autoimmue disorder was quite high but my Thyroid was all normal.

      By TexasCeliacNewbie · Posted

      Hi, I have been having a lot of back pain and gut issues for 8 weeks or so.  I saw the GI on Monday and my results just came in from the lab.  Some of these number are high and off the little chart from the lab.  I am reading this correctly that I most likely have Celiac, right???  It would explain a lot of things for me.  She does have me scheduled for a colonoscopy and endoscopy in  2 weeks to do the biopsy.  I posted this prior, but forgot to put the range assuming they were all the same.  Someone advised me to repost with the ranges for some insight in the meantime. Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 140 (normal) - Normal is 87-352 Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgA 256 (High) - Moderate to strong positive at or above 30 Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgG 65 (High) - Moderate to strong positive at or above 30 t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 31 (High) - Moderate to strong positive above 10 t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG 10 (High) - Positive is at or above 10

      Colonoscopy with large area of inflammation

      By trents · Posted

      Usually, the blood testing is done first and the endoscopy/biopsy follows for confirmation if there are positive antibody test scores. Historically, the endoscopy with biopsy has been considered to be the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease. If the tTG-IGA scores are very high (5x-10x normal), some doctors will forego the endoscpoy/biopsy and grant a celiac disease diagnosis without it. So, if you are starting with the endoscopy/biopsy that may be all you need to arrive at a diagnosis. Another possibility would be for the GI doc to do a blood draw for antibody testing on the same day you come in for the endoscopy/biopsy.
