Greetings! I was wondering if someone would happen to have a really good rice or wild rice stuffing recipe for the Christmas turkey? I did find a couple on the internet that sound pretty good, but, this is our first gluten-free Christmas, and I don't want to disappoint the in-laws with an untested recipe. Anybody have a good one to share?? Thanks in advance.

I used this one for Thanksgiving. It had a very nice flavor, but it is sweet, with the apples in it. But, I liked it.

Good luck with it!

APPLE RICE STUFFING

Cook together until tender, about 40 minutes. Set aside.

• 1 -2 tablespoons butter

• 1/2 large onion (diced)

• 1 stalk celery (diced)

Melt butter in a large frypan. Saute onion and celery until soft.

• 2 large unpeeled apples (diced)

• 1/2 cup / 125 ml walnuts or other nuts (chopped)

• 1/4 cup / 60 ml brown sugar

• 1 tablespoon dried herbs of choice: thyme, basil, oregano

Open Original Shared Link that I use, though this year I used a bunch of chanterrelles and black forest mushrooms as well, and it was *quite* tasty.

Open Original Shared Link that includes arborio for a creamier stuffing.

Thanks guys! These all sound great--just what I was looking for. However, can I actually stuff my bird with them? I can't imagine roasting a turkey without stuffing it first. If so, at what point would I do so? After the stuffing is already cooked, or before it is cooked (letting it cook with the turkey)? Any thoughts?

Nope, you don't stuff the turkey. Not only is it safer (reason #1), but you won't get the same texture out of the rice stuffing if you don't stir it (to help bring out the starches) (reason #2). Stuffing the turkey is passe! It increases the risk of food poisoning (reason #1 again), not to mention it causes you to overcook your turkey because the filled in center cavity has to get up to 170F, overcooking the breasts, which shouldn't get any farther over 160F than they have to (or you get dry, tough turkey) (reason #3). Instead, you can fill the turkey cavity with large chunks of onion, carrot, and celery. Someone here also suggested sticking large chunks of apple in there, which also sounds quite tasty.

(Reason #4 not to stuff with rice - the rice will ... triple, quadruple?... grow a lot in size while it cooks, but needs a lot of extra moisture in it to do so, and the turkey cavity can't hold it all while it cooks. When you make rice, the rice is well below the waterline, and you need a pot without holes to hold the water that the rice will eventually absorb - as it cooks. The turkey has too many holes! :D )

(BTW, another tip for keeping your turkey moist, which I do *every* year, and am excessively anal retentive on - make a very large sheet of alumnium foil (by fan folding together two or three sheets, the long way), and Open Original Shared Link. It keeps the moisture in, and you'll never have a dry turkey. It cooks faster this way, though, so I would absolutely leave a Open Original Shared Link in the breast meat and take it out when it gets to 157F, and then let it sit, still in the foil, 162F, allowing the leg meat (which will cook a touch faster) to get to its required 170F. Then slit open the foil at the bottom to collect the juice for making gravy while someone carves up the turkey! :) )

Edit: you'll have to cut and paste that link to amazon yourself. any time I add it, the converter to html automagically adds a space before the .com so the link won't work and sets the target to blank. Attempting to go back and change that manually doesn't work at all.

      What should I do with these test results?

      I haven't seen any information there are other genes which trents wrote but what if I spend money to do this test and the results show I have these genes. It will mean nothing. I can have these genes and not have celiac disease if I know it right. Because biopsy is not available, unfortunately, the most reliable methods are blood tests, in my opinion...

      Gluten migranes at night

      The first symptoms I had of coeliac disease were migraines. I think your doctor needs to test you for coeliac disease. The fact you are having migraines at night is interesting, but I never used to drink enough and my headaches were worse when I woke up in the morning. Dehydration was also a big cause for me.

      Gluten migranes at night

      I'll ask the same question that knitty kitty asked? On what basis did your Dr arrive at the conclusion that you have gluten intolerance? But let's be clear about terminology because the terms "gluten intolerance" and "gluten sensitivity" are typically used interchangeably out there in the wild and both are used indiscriminately to speak of two different...

      Gluten migranes at night

      Interesting....my Dr says since migranes are my only symptom she says I have gluten intolerance. I have stopped eating gluten. However, it seems to sneak in from time to time. Example: I ate canned mushrooms! Never thought canned mushrooms could have gluten, but they did. I had a migrane for 3 nights straight. Or I eat out, I think I am getting gluten free...

      Sounds like a good plan, Jack. Correct about the genes. About 40% of the general population possess the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% of the general population actually develops celiac disease. So, genetic testing is used as a rule out measure.

      I haven't seen any information there are other genes which trents wrote but what if I spend money to do this test and the results show I have these genes. It will mean nothing. I can have these genes and not have celiac disease if I know it right. Because biopsy is not available, unfortunately, the most reliable methods are blood tests, in my opinion. So I'm gonna eat gluten for another two months and then do the test again. It will be 12 weeks eating food with gluten so some symptoms might appear. Now, I don't have any except fogginess but I'm a software developer so it could be normal for me. Talking about how much food containing gluten to eat, I'm eating 6 slices of wheat bread per day (each slice weighs around 35 grams). I think it's much more than other people eat doing a gluten challenge. Before a gluten free diet I had symptoms like some food intolerance, diarrhea, bloating, belching. However, I also had giardiasis and after treating it I started a gluten free diet so it's unclear whether I had this symptoms because of eliminating gluten or this parasite. The symptoms for both are very similar. So I think it was this parasite because two years ago and before I didn't have these symptoms and I always ate gluten freely. Am I thinking okay or should I consider/do something else? I appreciate any suggestions.

      Night time migranes

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Debado, Migraines at night can be caused by high levels of histamine.  Histamine Intolerance can cause physical symptoms like migraines. Foods contain histamine.  Our bodies make histamine, an important neurotransmitter.  Our bodies naturally produce more histamine at night as part of our circadian rhythm, our sleep-wake cycles.   Some foods like gluten and nuts contain high histamine themselves or trigger our bodies to produce more histamine.  A low histamine diet is helpful, cutting out high histamine foods and histamine-release triggering foods.   Our bodies can breakdown a certain amount of histamine, but sometimes our bodies cannot keep up with the amount of histamine needing to be broken down, and can be overwhelmed by the amount of histamine resulting in Histamine Intolerance and health problems like migraines.   Vitamins C, B12, Pyridoxine B6 and thiamin B1 help lower histamine levels.  Our bodies use these vitamins to make an enzyme DOA (diamond oxidase) that breaks down histamine.  DAO from beef or pork kidney is an over-the-counter supplement that can be taken.   Riboflavin B2 is very helpful for relieving migraines.   Have you been diagnosed with Celiac Disease or suspect you have it?   Happy Holidays!

      Guidance on next steps after the lab tests

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @ABP2025, Have you thought about having a DNA test to check for known Celiac genes?    I do hope you will make sure that you are getting sufficient gluten to provoke an autoimmune response strong enough that the antibodies can be measured in the blood.  See article below. Celiac disease affects the absorption of nutrients,  including vitamins and minerals.  Your symptoms may be associated with thiamine deficiency.   Migraines and peripheral neuropathy, phimosis (yes, even this), and white spots on the brain are seen in thiamine deficiency.  Celiac disease disrupts the absorption of all the essential nutrients, but thiamine can be quickly depleted, in as little as three days.  Thiamine deficiency can occur even if blood tests show normal levels.  Thiamine deficiency can affect antibody production.
