Where does everyone put their bread and bread products to rise????

I can't seem to put things in a place warm enough to rise. I've tried on top of the pre-heated stove, on top of a running dryer....it rises just not much and to get it to rise the right amout it take twice as long as the recipe says to rise! HELP!!!!

I put mine in the oven to rise. I heat it up just a little bit first.

My oven has a "warm" setting, so I turn it on warm while I make the bread, then when the bread is in the pan I turn the oven off and put the bread inside it to rise - always works perfect and rises in about 40 min.

You may need to add a bit (up to tsp depending on size of loaf and other ingredients) of sugar. That should help it rise. You could also purchase some "dough enhancer" (from one of the online gluten-free stores) or use about 1 tsp of vinegar. Sometimes I use both.

Most recently I had a loaf rise WAY too much - it overflowed all over everything!

And then sunk when that happened. It rose AGAIN, and sunk AGAIN. What a mess!

I put mine in the oven too. I start heating it to 300 degrees or so while I'm mixing the ingredients. Then I turn off the oven and put it in with a cheese cloth over it. I've also put plastic wrap with a little bit of oil sprayed on it over the bread too. Both have worked well. I also always put a pan of hot water below the bread (on a rack below) to create a moist environment. I sometimes put it in the dishwasher to rise too if I am using the oven for something else.

Don't worry too much about the rising time specified in the recipe - go by how high the dough has risen, not the time. It could take more or less time on different days, depending on many environmental factors, but if you go for a consistent dough height, you will have more consistent results.

Hi,

I let my bread rise (prove) by wrapping it loosely in a lightweight plastic bag

and putting it on a window ledge in the sun for about 40 mins, then straight

into the pre-heated oven.

.

Try a space in your airing cupboard,

or in a small press with a reading lamp with halogen type bulb playing down on it.

.

During the warm weather place it outside loosely wrapped in a plastic bag.

.

The bag serves as a barrier against bugs and also it helps prove bread quicker

by retaining the heat and moisture generated by the action of the yeast or soda.

.

Best Regards,

David

      But isn't it easier to just take a D3 supplement? Is the D light somehow a superior source? Links?

      So the way it should be used is to take it before possible gluten exposure, so right before a meal at a restaurant take 1-2 capsules. Unfortunately taking it 1 hour or more after an exposure is too late.

      Do I really need to get a biopsy?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, and thank you for sharing your detailed experience. It sounds like you’ve been through a lot over the past several months, and it’s understandable to feel frustrated after navigating unclear diagnoses and conflicting advice. Since you’ve found relief with a gluten- and corn-free diet, it might be worth continuing that approach for now, especially given your current commitments to culinary classes. You could consider working with a knowledgeable dietitian or a gastroenterologist who specializes in food intolerances and celiac disease to explore potential intolerances or other conditions without immediately reintroducing gluten. If confirming celiac disease is important for your long-term health management, you could plan for an endoscopy during a less busy period, ensuring you follow the gluten challenge protocol beforehand. In the meantime, prioritizing your well-being and avoiding known triggers seems like a practical step. Always advocate for yourself with doctors, and seek second opinions if needed—your health concerns are valid. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      Do I really need to get a biopsy?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Ryangf! If you don't have celiac disease you could still have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). They share many of the same symptoms but NCGS does not damage the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. Some experts feel NCGS can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. NCGS is 10x more common than celiac disease. There is no test for it. A diagnosis of NCGS is arrived at by first ruling out celiac disease by formal testing. At the end of the day the antidote for both is the same, namely, life-long abstinence from gluten. Yes, corn is a common cross-reactor with gluten for some celiacs. So are oats, soy, eggs and dairy.  I have concern with your possible exposure to wheat flour dust during your culinary training. It gets in the air, you breathe it in, it gets trapped in the mucous of your mouth and airway and winds up in your gut. If you decide to go forward wit the "gluten challenge" for formal celiac disease testing, aim for the daily consumption of 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for four weeks leading up to the day of either the blood draw or the endoscopy/biopsy.

      Less than 10 parts per billion issues

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I just want to mention that with gluten we're talking about ppm, or "parts per million," and not parts per billion.  Sticking to whole foods and home cooking is the safest way to go, without necessarily replacing all gluten products you might normally eat with gluten-free ones. If you do eat gluten replacements, for example gluten-free bagels or breads, it's probably best to take @trents advice and seek out certified gluten-free brands.
