I have only been diagnosted with Celiac for about 2 months, so I am new to all of this.

What is the best flour to use for baking?

I go out every morning for coffee at Tim Horton's and since nothing there is gluten free, I need to take my own.

I have tried Tom Sawyer's. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I will pass forward the flour recipe given to me:

3 parts white rice flour

2 parts potato starch

1 part tapioca flour/starch

*unless otherwise noted add 1 tsp xanthan gum for every 1.5 cups of flour

This recipe works the best out of everything that I have tried. In general, the more starches you can use the better. Gluten free baking is different than baking with wheat, and can often take time and patience before you will get good results. If you follow this recipe, it should cut down on the bad baking experiences.

Hope this helps. :)

      I haven’t been diagnosed formally. My doctor always called it eczema but over the years I have figured out it isn’t.  I’ll do some research on iodine. Thanks for that info.

      I would not think abstaining from commercially processed food would have any effect on dermatitis herpetiformis. What can help with dermatitis herpetiformis is reducing iodine in your diet and, of course, you must completely abstain from gluten.  Many who suffer from dermatitis herpetiformis cannot find relief until they get on a med called Dapsone. It seems to be pretty effective but stresses the liver. So, anyone taking it must have their liver enzymes monitored regularly. By the way, celiac disease is the only know cause for dermatitis herpetiformis. Has your rash been officially diagnosed as dermatitis herpetiformis? It can be a challenge to find a dermatologist who knows how to properly biopsy dermatitis herpetiformis when seeking a diagnosis.

      I was eating gluten at the time it was done. I do not eat commercially processed food and we make it all from scratch so I wonder if that might cause an issue.

      When you had the blood draw done for the antibody testing, had you already been practicing a gluten free diet? If so, that would also sabotage the results of the tTG-IGA.

      The rash on my hands is the little blisters or  dermatitisherpetiformi you are referencing. They itch like crazy and no doctor has ever been able to get them to go away. When I remove gluten from my diet they go away. I decided to do the test for that reason. It’s really my only symptom but my sister has celiac disease and the same hand rash. her doctor recommended I get tested.
