I am in desperate need of help!!

My partner has just been recently diagnosed with Coeliacs and we are struggling to adjust.

We have bought a bread machine do that I can make bread that he can eat and hopefully cut down on costs but the recipies that i have tast awful!

Does anyone have a bread receipe that does NOT require a bread mix as I want to make it from scratch.

ANy help is extremely greatfully received.

Thank you in advance!!

Bette Hagman's Gluten-Free Gourmet Bakes Bread cookbook was a big help when I was starting out. Everything is from scratch.

Hi Katie,

I have a bread recipe that is the closest thing to wheat bread in taste, texture and mouthfeel.

.

You can happily eat it witout spreading anything on it,

it doesn't need to be refreshed,

it will keep in an air-tight container on the counter for 3 - 4 days,

in the fridge for more than a week and

can be refreshed from the freezer anytime.

.

It bends like wheat bread it tears like wheat bread,

I recently gave a sample to the Head Lecturer in the Bakery College of Ireland,

the response I got back was, he thought it was very good and wants to use the recipe in one of his lectures.

this will bring up all my gluten-free from scratch bread recipes.

I haven't tried using a bread maker, but I'm very happy with the quality of bread from Annalise Roberts' book Gluten Free Baking Classics So far, I've only tried the Italian bread, but it's such a world of difference from the pre-made cardboard I've been eating that I've made 3 loaves of it already!

Oh - I see she has a new book on bread machine baking:

I haven't seen it yet, but I'd definitely recommend it based on Gluten Free Baking Classics.

Something else to consider is the ingredients. I had trouble finding Millet flour at my local health food store (which is pretty good, but somewhat expensive for a lot of the other ingredients I've been using). They did have whole millet, so I've been grinding that in my Vitamix, but that's not a great solution.

This afternoon, I visited an (Asian) Indian grocery store, and found both Millet flour and Sorghum flour, for about $1.50/lb each, which is dirt cheap compared to the health store prices.

The Millet flour is called Bajri, and the Sorghum flour is called Jawar.

I also visited a Chinese Grocers, and found (white) rice flour (which appears to be a finer grind than I've been getting from the health food stores), potato starch, and tapioca flour.

The Chinese grocer also carries a wide variety of rice noodles.

I hope this helps. I thought I'd never eat good tasting bread again without getting sick, and am ecstatic to find out I was wrong.

The only problem I seem to be having is sourcing some of the ingredients.

I am in the UK so i odnt think we sell some of them, but i will try my best :o)

      Great tips, Deb. Thanks.  What a pity that they no longer mark items as gluten-free. And it is even more of a shame that you must bring protein bars instead of the crew helping you with your needs. Are you planning on sailing Royal again?

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I've not heard of any issues with Primal Kitchen, but it certainly would be worth not using the brand for a while to see if this helps. 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. This article may be helpful:

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you are super sensitive you may want to look for only Certified Gluten-Free Products, as @trents mentioned.

      Gluten free/ non dairy , low calorie pudding

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm not sure about low calorie, as puddings are typically a dessert, but we do have this category: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/gluten-free-dessert-recipes-pastries-cakes-cookies-etc/gluten-free-pudding-recipes/ This one might work if you cut back on the sugar:

      Royal Caribbean Only, Please

      We are off next week on our 9th RCCL cruise since our diagnoses.  I send an email to special_needs@rccl.com before every cruise letting them know that I am both dairy and gluten free and my husband is gluten free.   Unfortunately, with the new menus they introduced in 2023, they removed the gluten-free designation from each item on the menu.  Instead of having a dedicated person take gluten-free orders, it now falls to your regular wait staff.  Some have been great and some not so good.  We had a great cruise in May and hit it off with our head waiter.  She went the extra mile and ordered gluten free desserts that were not on the menu.  My problem arises from other food allergies.  I am allergic to dairy, beef, and several types of fish.  On those days my husband is a happy camper with a steak or salmon, veggies and a baked potato.  I end up not getting enough protein, so I bring protein bars.  I also bring snacks for the room. As long as the food is commercially prepared and unopened, you can bring it. Often the only dessert choices that are gluten free contain dairy, so I am out of luck.  But, if you are just gluten free, they have plenty of choices.  See the head chef in the Windjammer buffet and he will give you a tour of the gluten-free choices.  They usually have 2 gluten free desserts out at lunch and they are labeled gluten free. We have found that it works best to have assigned dining rather than anytime.  That way the waiters learn from the get go what our needs are, and we don't have to explain ourselves every night.  We also get a private table for 2.  I frankly got sick and tired of tablemates telling me a little bit of gluten would not hurt me.
