Substitute For Barley

I was wondering if rice (maybe Arborio) or quinoa would be a better substitute for barley in a hamburger soup recipe? Is there anything else I could use other than rice or quinoa? I also use to eat barley for breakfast with fruit compote on top. What could else could I use?

I have a similar soup recipe w/ground beef and barley, and I like short grain brown rice as a substitute for the barley. It's chewier and more substantial than plain white rice, and also starchy enough to thicken the broth a bit like the barley did. Can't remember whether I've tried sweet brown rice, which would be starchier still.

I also like the short grain brown rice with cream or butter and brown sugar or maple syrup for breakfast, but I haven't played around much with other grains for hot cereal. Millet is next on my list to try, though there's another thread where several people have posted that they don't tolerate it. Hopefully I won't be one of those!

I'd love to get one of those Crock Pot Little Dippers to fix whole grain hot cereals in overnight. Maybe I'll ask for one for Christmas!

I like using whole soba or buckwheat instead of barley in soups. It expands nicely and has almost the same texture.

      Possibly, but there used to be a movement within the celiac disease community to just tell restaurants that you have a deadly wheat/gluten allergy to, hopefully anyway, ensure that your meal is actually gluten-free. I don't recommend this approach at all, and if I ran a restaurant where there was ANY risk of cross-contamination, I'm afraid that I would decline to server someone who made this claim. No restaurant owner wants anyone dying or going to the emergency room at their business.

      You mention that you are waiting on your test results--did they do a celiac blood panel? If so, were you eat lots of gluten in the 6-8 weeks leading up to the test? This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      According to their website they are gluten-free: https://www.somersby.com/en/faq/

      Your only resort would seem to be directly contacting the manufacturer and ask some pointed questions about CC . . . and hope you get some straight answers. You are probably already aware of this but the label "Gluten Free" does not necessarily equate to zero gluten. "Gluten Free" is a standard established by the FDA whereby a product can use that label as long as it does not contain an amount of gluten exceeding 20 ppm. There is also "Certified Gluten Free" which is a third party certifying standard signifying that the product does not exceed 10 ppm. There are limits to detection technology much below that.
