does anyone have any favorite gluten-free pasta's? I am not a huge fan of rice pasta. I am also curious about pesto sauces. The jar i have lists "spices" as an ingrediant...so i'm a bit leery.

thanks

I just bought a TON of gluten-free pasta, so I'll check the labels for the name brands when I get up in the am (it's 12:57am in Pa.)

Any rice noodles from the Chinese food sections of a store (ie, Wegman's) should be ok--just double check the ingredient list to make sure.

I'll keep you posted :)

I am not a big fan of any gluten-free pastas so I basically cut pasta out of my diet. The one kind I do like is Knotta Pasta. It is a rice pasta but it is not chewy at all and has great flavor/consistency. Other than that, I have not had any luck with gluten-free pastas and I have tried a lot of different kinds. Hope this helps! :D

I know you mentioned you don't like rice past but Tinkayada is the best!!! I love it, tastes just like "normal" to me!

Tinkyada pasta is great! My favorite variety is the veggie spirals. My gluten eating husband loves it and so does my non celiac seven year old friend. Last Easter I made lasagna with Tinkyada noodles ... that was the first time I had eaten lasagna in over 20 years ... what a treat! I'm so happy that my local health food store has started carrying Tinkyada pasta ... I order it by the case and get a 10% discount :D

Tinkyada is the best! My non gluten-free family like it better than wheat pasta.

thanks for the responses!! it seems i will have to check out this tinkyada...can you get it at most health food stores? i dont have a car so it is easier for me to shop at the thriftway by my house and the gluten-free pastas are few and far between. i really should go to a health food store and stock up!!

I also like Tinkyadas. But Quinoa pasta (by Ancient Harvest) is also good, if you can have corn.

I am a bit too picky when it comes to pasta. I thought that Tinkyada was okay as far as it goes, but it wasn't satisfactory to me. It still has a sort of "rice noodle" quality to it.

The best gluten-free pasta I've had yet is a modified version of a recipe I found in Bette Hagman's "Gluten Free Gourmet" cookbook (the one with garbonzo/fava flour in it). I make a large batch, roll and cut it, and then freeze it for use later. It cooks in about 3 minutes from frozen. It tastes like regular homemade pasta with a mild nutty flavor; the texture is much better than rice pasta and infinitely better than corn pasta.

But when I am going for pure convenience, I will use Tinkyada as the best "instant" option I've found yet.

I like Tinkyada much more than my old pastas.........if it has a "rice noodle taste" then I like rice noodles a lot! :D

      For people with celiac disease and corn intolerance from it: Is salt still okay for most people?

      By Ryangf · Posted

      I haven’t had any noticeable reactions to salt so I will continue using it. I think I just freaked out when I realized this but it doesn’t cause me any discomfort- so thanks!

      Abscesses on legs

      By plumbago · Posted

      Ok, thanks. I'm so glad to hear you are in the hands of a dermatologist. I hope he/she has given you 1) a diagnosis; and 2) a plan of care with a couple of options so that you have buy-in and comfort with it. I have some ideas, but not having seen the abscesses or you in person, it doesn't really make sense for me to kind of ... speculate further. But your question was regarding gluten, and you've gotten a couple of other follow up questions and answers that are good, including the idea to keep a food diary. Let us know if we can help further or answer any other questions. I'm sorry you're going through this, it sounds very painful.

      Abscesses on legs

      By LookingForAnswers101 · Posted

      @plumbago They appear as boils. They are big, like the size of a nickel--quarter, and they hurt when I touch them. I have gone to the same derm for them over and over and she thinks my body is colonized by a bacteria, but even after using hibiclens all over my body they come back.

      Abscesses on legs

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the gluten-free community! It’s great to have you here. While gluten sensitivity or celiac disease can indeed cause skin issues, such as dermatitis herpetiformis (a blistering rash), abscesses in areas like the lower buttocks or thighs are less commonly linked directly to gluten. However, chronic abscesses could be a sign of an underlying immune or inflammatory condition, which might be worth discussing with a healthcare professional. Some people with gluten-related disorders also experience secondary issues like bacterial overgrowth or immune dysregulation, which could potentially contribute to recurrent infections. It’s always a good idea to explore all possible causes, including gluten sensitivity, with your doctor. In the meantime, keeping a food and symptom diary might help identify any patterns. Wishing you the best on your health journey!

      You say you have gluten sensitivity? Have you been officially diagnosed with celiac disease or do you refer to NCGS?
