Udi's Bread Tip

I've noticed some persons on the board posting that it's inconvenient to have frozen bread rather than (the old) freah kind, and saying that it's really hard to pry the pieces apart.

Just wanted to say I have always kept the loaf in the door of the freezer where it's not quite as cold, rather than inside the freezer, and the pieces come apart really easily and they thaw very fast. Just about 1 minute in the oven at 350 and they're ready for a sandwich. It's almost as convenient as having the fresh loaf for me.

Hope this helps someone out!

I have been putting them in the microwave for about 30 seconds and boom, warm soft bread!

That's brilliant! I'll see if this doesn't help save me some worry about how many fingers I'll have left after prying a few slices off. I could add years to my life avoiding the stress.

If you slide a butter knife between the slices and then twist the knife, it'll come right apart.

While in theory your suggestion is great Bart, in practice I find it doesn't work out so well for me. You are making the assumption I'll be able to get a knife between the slices. So far every loaf I have purchased seems to have some sort of magical seal preventing me from sliding the knife in. :lol:

You could just leave the bread on the counter in an airtight container. That's where mine is. I bought it unfrozen why would I freeze it.

Mine goes stale/moldy really fast if I don't keep it at least in the fridge. Freezer is better if we're not going to be eating it within a few days.

"You could just leave the bread on the counter in an airtight container. That's where mine is. I bought it unfrozen why would I freeze it."

I think you're talking about a different brand of bread. I'm referring to the brand that comes frozen, from the freezer section of the store by the pizzas and such, and on the package it specifically says, "Keep Frozen".

There are some brands of room-temperature bread that come from the regular shelf, but I always have bought the frozen kind.

I buy many loaves and put them in the freezer, as I am about 2 hours away from the nearest whole foods. But, I take one loaf out at a time and put it in the refrigerator. It will last up to 2 weeks in the fridge.

that sounds like a good idea. I had 5 loaves in my freezer end of Jan., now down to one. I can usually pry them apart with my fingers, though. I get Rudi's.

      Passing out

      By cristiana · Posted

      At the time of the one awful, substantial glutening I experienced a few years ago, I felt very near to passing out.  I think if I hadn't been able to lie down, I might have.   As a child I was prone to fainting, and was told then how to avoid it, by putting my head between my knees, or lying down.  So now, if I feel things going grey that is what I do and I've never fainted since.  But I felt so unwell when I was glutened on that one occasion with chills and cold sweats, waves of nausea, etc, and amongst it all I remember thinking that my heartbeat was also 'all over the place', so much so I might end up in hospital.  Until I was actually sick, then I began to feel a lot better.   I felt well initially after eating gluten, the symptoms hit like a wall about 1 1/2 to 2 hours later, and then when I was sick, they quickly subsided.  I could not believe how violently I reacted.

      Welcome @Mary Em, Vitamin D plays an essential role in producing serotonin and minimizing oxidative stress, both of which can affect the migraine brain. Low vitamin D levels may contribute to migraine.  42% of Americans are deficient in vitamin D, 60% of UK adults and up to 75% northern Canadians are deficient in vitamin D.  Virtually all Celiac Disease sufferers are vitamin D deficient. I have been taking 10,000 IU of vitamin D daily since 2015.  In 2019 my 25(OH)D blood test was 47 ng/ml.  Another two years to get up to 80 ng/ml (equal to 200 nmol/L) the normal homeostasis level, where it stays as long as I continue taking oral vitamin D.   Thiamine (vitamin B1) has been associated with a lower risk of migraine. You might start by taking significant amounts of vitamin D and Thiamin supplemental to increase your levels.  If available to you there are blood tests that will give you a baseline.  Worth checking out. Just eating a gluten free diet does stop the ongoing damage that gluten causes, but it does not replenish the vitamin and mineral malnutrition caused by years of undiagnosed Celiac Disease caused by malabsorption and food avoidance. I also take: Morning 6am or waking. Clonidine 0.1 mg every 6 hours (Blood pressure) Vitamin D 10,000 IU (250 mcg) DHEA 100 mg   Midmorning 500 mcg Iodine 10 drops of Liquid Iodine   Once a day, midafternoon B1 Thiamin 250 mg B2 Riboflavin 100 mg B3 Nicotinic Acid 500 mg B5 Pantothenice Acid 500 mg Vitamin C 500 mg Selenium twice a week 200 mcg

      I have a few times but I have other health problems made worse by the reaction. The main one being a migraine disorder, so really it was the migraine that knocked me out not the gluten. The gluten just set off everything.

      What do my test results mean?

      By jmiller93 · Posted

      I’m have a vitamin D deficiency. I’m still waiting on a qualitative fat test to see if I have malabsorption.

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @jmiller93, Some of us are seronegative and don't test positive on tTg IgA tests.  Anemia, diabetes, and Thiamine deficiency can cause false negatives on Celiac panels.  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Iron? Thiamine?  Vitamin B12?  Vitamin D?  Only one Celiac markers is needed to develop the active disease.   I agree a gluten free diet trial is worth a try.
