What do you think about Schar?

I personally HATE it, is there someone who doesn't?

Can someone explain step 4 of this focaccia recipe (caputos recipe)?

https://caputoflour.com/blogs/recipes/gluten-free-focaccia

Using a latex glove coated with olive oil, remove the mixing bowl from the mixer and cover it with plastic, Let the dough rest in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Why in the world does it say to use a latex glove coated in olive oil to cover the bowl and put it in the fridge šŸ¤”

Any substitutes for cup of noodles?

I already have a somewhat decent recipe for gf ramen, but does anyone have any good subs for cup of noodles that they enjoy? I think Phonomenal was one I tried before and the chicken flavor tasted like fish and the noodles were just.. gross.

Ms.Vickies ?

Ive been eating Ms.Vickies sea salt and malt vinegar, even since i stopped eating gluten around may. (Non-Celiac, just a allergy/severe intolerance)

When i searched it up around then, i saw people say that the malt vinegar flavour didnt have gluten, and i SWEAR i looked at the label and it was fine

Yesterday i looked at the label and saw it has barely in it? Ive been searching for answers, and the only explanation i can find is that it may not have gluten or enough gluten to react, because of the distilling process of the vinegar(?)

I never had a reaction to them, but anything else i have a severe reaction, and get itchy anywhere gluten touches.

Does anyone else have the same experience? I feel like im going crazy šŸ˜­ i always eat them with no issues .. im in Canada btw

Question

This is probably a weird question but does anyone know if the IcyHot patches are okay for celiac? I pulled a muscle in my arm and my work requires a lot of heavy lifting. I checked the ingredients and donā€™t see anything that might indicate itā€™s not but wanted to be safe than sorry by double checking

Any product recommendations

My son (just turned 1) has quite a few allergies and Iā€™m trying to figure out meals and products to use. Heā€™s allergic to peanuts (told to avoid all nuts), wheat, oats and eggs. Iā€™ve found a good egg replacer for baking and have been using bisquicks gluten free pancake mix to make pancakes which he likes. Iā€™d like to find some premade stuff that I can bring on the go or throw in the toaster for quick meals in the morning. I havenā€™t been able to find pre made stuff with no gluten, eggs, oats or almond flour. I make some things from scratch for him but Iā€™d like to have some quick options as well especially as he gets older. Also if anyone is familiar with the egg alternatives to make like scrambled eggs, theyā€™re expensive but if theyā€™re good theyā€™ll be worth it. I donā€™t know much about them and would have to read ingredients but I think itā€™ll be good for my son to have something like scrambled eggs.

gluten free microwave only meals?

hi! i am about to go to training for a job and will be put up in a hotel for almost 7 weeks šŸ«£šŸ˜­. they are semi-accommodating for gluten allergies but definitely not great at it. i will only have access to a microwave for a while. i will also be on a tight budget, and was wondering if anyone had any creative recommendations for foods i could cook/eat during? thank you :-D (i will also be in houston texasā€¦ so if you have grocery store recommendations that would be great!!)

Modifying the GF Cheddar Bay Biscuit box mix

Has anyone ever tried making the boxed gf cheddar bat biscuit mix without using the grated cheddar cheese? I would like to make these biscuits for Thanksgiving, but would like to omit the cheese (so that they would pair better with Cranberry sauce!)

Is the cheese acting as a binder of sorts?

Thanks!

Friendsgiving is todayā€¦

And I had the realization that I cannot have my traditional brie bakeā€¦ I also had no idea that Jiffy cornbread contains wheat too. My husbands cornbread stuffing is a staple! I did get some GF cornbread mix that I'm going to give a whirl today.

What Thanksgiving sides do you miss the most and what are the best substitutions youve found?

(side note: spouts is having bogo on their GF pies right now - in dfw)

Edit: Staple, not stable.

Entitlement

As someone who is Gluten Intolerance for the past year. I originally came on to this subreddit to get advice on being gluten free. But since being on this subreddit I have seen that a lot of people who have a gluten problem/ allergy is very entitled and think that everyone in the world is suppose to cater to them because they are gluten free. I get it suck not being able to enjoy the food when everyone around is able to eat good smelling and tasting food. But you have to learn how to adapt to what you have to do for yourself to keep yourself healthy. And remember youā€™re not alone a lot of people are starting to become allergic, sensitive and intolerant to gluten. But you need to stop acting like people are supposed to cater to your needs. No one in this world cares about you the way you think they do. So you have to be there for yourself.

I made Rice Krispie treats with Rice Chex

My daughter has celiac and really wanted rice crispy treats.

I have to say using rice Chex was the perfect solution and they were delicious, almost better than using Rice Krispies.

So I definitely recommend trying it.

Does the ion crĆØme lightener have gluten?

Iā€™m new to gluten in hair, skin, and makeup products and I saw the developer having gluten but I didnā€™t think the lightener did. I also used salon care 20 vol developer. I never had any problems with using bleach but while I was doing it I was having a lot of issues like nausea, weakness like shaky, breathing problems ( itā€™s getting better while Iā€™m typing this ) and it was just hard on my asthma. It wasnā€™t super potent either so I donā€™t know if it has gluten or itā€™s just the bleach or what. Iā€™ve never used it before so I could be having issues with an ingredient? I have no idea šŸ˜­

If it is the lightener, what brands are good to use?

I feel like I canā€™t do this anymore.

I donā€™t mean to get all depressy and stressy but I miss my favorite foods. GF pasta tastes like crap. Bread tastes like crap. Even the gf Oreos taste like crap.

Iā€™m feeling hopeless right now and I need to know Iā€™m not alone. Yes I am eating a lot of naturally gf foods but do you know how bad I want a Chick-fil-A sandwich?

Response to itchy scalp?

Not celiac; donā€™t think thereā€™s anything serious. Gluten (or wheat, not sure) can give me a rash and an itchy scalp. Itā€™s not fun for me, and the sound of the scratching bothers my husband. Any suggestions for alleviation? I can take Benedryl if Iā€™m prepared to sleep for hours, but I would like other options.

Just a rantā€¦

Iā€™m tired of going to large parties (think weddings) and being able to eat absolutely nothing. Sure, I can eat some snack food from my bag but itā€™s still frustrating and makes the event less enjoyable.

How do yā€™all deal with this?

I donā€™t think it was worth it

I ate a sourdough melt from Culverā€™s for lunch and I donā€™t feel too good, but the bread was so good :(

Letā€™s have a laugh

We should all get some funny in, whatā€™s a time where you accidentally glutenā€™d yourself OR avoided something thinking there was gluten but were wrong?

I was about 3 years into gluten dairy free and I was at summer camp. I thought Orzo was just really big rice šŸ«”

I also stopped drinking wine for a moment because it was aged in oak barrels. My mind thought oak barrels inherently meant whisky barrels.

What are some terrible gluten foods that youā€™ve been craving?

Iā€™m craving the worst of the worstā€¦ Taco Bellā€™s soft tacos, and ramen noodles.

Sometimes I debate having one awful day where I pig out on all the foods I miss so much. Just one day lol but I havenā€™t dared.
