Chebe No-frills Mix?

Recommended Posts

I bought some of the Chebe no frills all-purpose mix last week because it was so much cheaper than buying the packaged mixes. It is basically a 20 pound bag of the all-purpose Chebe. Now I am panicking because I am afraid it will not come with instructions on how to measure it out to use it. Nothing like a crapload of Chebe mix and no idea how much it takes to make a batch. :blink:

Has anyone ordered the no-frills mix, and did it come with instructions? I don't know how much (by volume) is in the packages that are individually sized, but they are all around 7.5 ounces or so. Anyone know how many cups of Chebe is in one of them?

Thanks for any help!

Buying Chebe in bulk is a great idea! I didn't know it came that way.

I have several of the plain red Chebe packages on hand but I'm not going to be able to bake until later tonight or maybe tomorrow morning. When I do, I'll measure one of the red packages and post the measurement of mix in the package and the directions.

How are you planning on fixing it?

I made parmesan breadsticks with green chilis and cooked them to a crunchy/chewy texture. YUM!

A red pack of basic Chebe mix contains 2 cups and 1-1/2 Tbsp. of mix. This was measured the way they taught me in Home Ec -- spooning the mix out into the cup measure and leveling off the cup. If you were scooping it out of a bag, it would probably be 2 cups. Basic Chebe is the most forgiving gluten-free bread I've found.

Where did you find Chebe sold in bulk?

I ordered it directly from the Chebe website at Open Original Shared Link It is so much cheaper than buying the packages and I am such a cheapskate. B)

Thank you so much for measuring that out for me. I can't wait until it gets here to start making me some Chebe! Who know I could get so excited about bread? The recipe you mentioned above sounds great. I may have to try it. I am REALLY craving a soft pretzel right now, and I think Chebe may work for a reasonable facsimile.

Hey, I think that may be new - very cool. Next time, I will just order a few cases and then the bulk of the all-purpose mix (gluten-free/LF)!

I just realized in looking at your link that I measured the red package which has dry milk in it. I have a yellow package of the all-purpose (dairy free) at home that was a freebie from the store where I buy all of my Chebe. I promise I'll make something with it by the weekend and see if the package contains the same measurements. Sorry for the delay, I thought the original was the all purpose. That explains why I couldn't find it, dry milk might go off by the time you used 20 pounds. Although I wonder if the cream of tarter and baking soda will get old like baking powder does? Are you going to store it in the freezer?

      I think most of us, when we first got our diagnosis, imagined that going gluten free would be the magic the bullet that would restore us to perfect health. We soon find out that it usually isn't quite that simple and that celiac disease has long fingers.

      Thanks! I still have much to learn, I'd hoped going gluten-free would be a magic bullet and I'm learning my system is still very sensitive which is overwhelming and discouraging at times. Thanks for the yogurt tip! There is comfort in knowing that this is common during early healing and I'm not alone!

      Thanks so much for the response. Are you usually able to pinpoint a trigger when you get the pain again? What I didn’t share in my earlier post is that I also usually eat out on weekends (though I share celiacs/needs to be gluten-free) and I’ve also been under a lot of stress lately in my personal life. While I’m speculating that it’s the wine it could certainly be a number of things. Do you ever notice the pain more when you are stressed? Learning so much about the brain/gut connection and celiacs. Thanks, there is comfort in hearing others have experienced similar symptoms.

      This was my main symptom. I still get it from time to time. Also feels like a burning pain on the upper abdomen. I think the wine could definitely cause the pain to be worse. There are do many things I still can't eat.

      Yes and this is true of gluten free ready made, processed and prepackaged foods in general. In particular, hard to digest polysaccharides are commonly used in these products that give many celiacs issues and I personally don't handle some emulsifiers well. IMO, reactions to these ingredients are often mistaken for a gluten reaction.
