| 652 | ruger, for me it was my daughter. She had been complaining of a stomach ache for a number of weeks - we went to the doctor and one of the things she got done was a TTG bloody test. It come back with a very high count, indicating coeliacs. We were referred to the specialist, having been told very firmly to keep her on a normal, gluten inclusive diet until he had performed an endoscopy and biopsy. This was done yesterday, and what he saw indicates yet more strongly that she has coeliacs. mbos - 2010-01-23 15:53:00 |

| 656 | We did gluten free Szechuan chicken stirfry last night - luverly! mbos - 2010-01-28 11:32:00 |
| 657 | Recipe please mbos - would love to try it nanee2jlp - 2010-01-28 18:13:00 |

| 659 | Gluten free Szechuan Chicken Stirfry Ingredients: Sauce: Slice the chicken breasts thinly across the grain, stack the slice then cut again into matchsticks. Combine sauce ingredients. Heat the oil in a wok/frypan over a high heat. Add the chicken and stir-fry until white, remove with a slotted spoon and keep warm. Add chilli, zucchini and peppers to the wok and stirfry until beginning to soften. Add garlic and ginger and stirfry briefly, then add vinegar and return chicken to pan. Stirfry for a minute or two, then pour over the mixed sauce. Lower heat and cook until thickened. Add the spring onions right before serving. Serve on rice. Serves 4. In terms of gluten, you have to watch the soy, chicken stock and the vinegar. Pre-GF I used malt vinegar, but since I've made it with white vinegar with good results. I used to use Mirin instead of Dry Sherry, but stuff in our pantry has gluten in it. (By ibos!) mbos - 2010-01-28 19:24:00 |

| 670 | I'd like to just say that I've mostly enjoyed reading through this thread, and have gleaned a few new ideas for my vegetarian gluten free daughter. I don't understand why a Gluten Free thread keeps having references to all these other 'additives' that have nothing to do with gluten. While I do understand that other additives are important for many people - it seems that if they needed info on that they'd want a thread about additives not a gluten free thread. It also seems that although some people need to be totally gluten free, most are able to tolerate a small amount regularly - it makes for an uncomfortable read to be constantly reminded that there may be traces of this or that or it is made on a line that also produces this and that...surely that is stuff that anyone could figure out for themselves by reading the packets. If they are THAT sensitive they would be more careful and I doubt they want to be constantly reminded...surely if people are so extremely sensitive to gluten they'd be extremely careful to look after themselves, and not just trust what someone on a thread says without a little research of their own. I don't feel the paranoia is doing the thread any good at all - as a one off reader, it's a bit much to be constantly hit in the head with problem after problem with recipes other people have put up. Mind you I did just do the whole thing in one sitting - so perhaps it's not normally so prevalent as it feels to me. I felt like I would read a recipe, then automatically expect the next entry to be...but this, and but that... don't use this...all feels very negative. While there is good information - it should be about gluten free recipes as in the title - not about extremely teeny amounts that may be sneaking through the system, or additives etc. Perhaps there should be another thread for the extremely sensitive people to chat about the other problems associated with food... Just my 'outsiders' opinion... We have a range of products that we are comfortable using and can make anything from normal recipes just using the simple flour or the gluten free breadcrums, the gluten free pasta etc. These days there are a huge range of gluten free things available at the supermarket that are making life heaps easier - and I find I am having more problems coming up with vegetarian things than gluten free things. Anyhooooo...I think it's great that you have a thread for gluten free recipes. I hope you all enjoy your yummy stuff ;-) teejay11 - 2010-07-04 15:09:00 |
| 671 | nah - it's probably me feeling negative today...ignore me ;-) teejay11 - 2010-07-04 15:12:00 |
| 672 | I like to hear that the ingredients have been checked out - as we are not just GF. One slip is hours of pain for my two. They are very sensitive - but *only* Gf not coeliac. Howvere with all the research going on - apprently the real worry is the GF crowd :( gaspodetwd - 2010-07-04 17:11:00 |
| 673 | Teejay11, your observations are absolutely correct. If a person has food intolerances, then it is up to each individual to find out exactly what they can and cannot have. If a certain recipe contains an ingredient which they cannot have, then they can simply leave it out or find a suitable substitute, and this can be done without drama. Find out for yourself what you can tolerate in your diet, and do not allow yourself to be bullied into not having something which can be a valuable part of your diet. hestia - 2010-07-04 17:19:00 |
| 674 | I agree with teejay and hestia and the reason I stopped contributing to this thread. Everytime herika would bombard it with contradictions and paranoia about the additives etc etc. It doesn't matter what threads we start if it is about being gluten free she will come and dominate it so I think whats the point, no matter what anyone says she has to have the last say. nanee2jlp - 2010-07-04 18:03:00 |
| 675 | Melford,please dont stop coming in,you are so missed. earthangel4 - 2010-07-05 08:36:00 |
| 676 | I would love to see Melford back here, she had so much to offer without the incessant harping by a few who spoil this thread. Her recipes were great and it would be wonderful to have more. frances1266 - 2010-07-05 09:56:00 |

| 684 | Thank you all for your kind words they are much appreciated. Great quote cookessentials. This thread was started "just for gluten free recipes" not for continuous ramblings from one person "herika". I have posted pointing out to herika that this is for recipes ONLY and I have asked her to keep to the two threads she started if she wants to lecture people but she replied that she WILL enter this thread if she thinks she has something to offer. Like a previous poster stated not everyone has to be as extreme as she is. It got to the point where no matter what recipe I put up she would enter and contradict anything that she didn't agree with. I have even pointed out to her that she is not qualified to give such advice but she still persists. She has chosen not to follow mainstream medical advice but instead decided to manage her own health through trial and error. In my opinion she is enough to make people give up on a gluten free diet and frighten them half to death.Much of what she writes is the subject of controversy and some even goes against the advice I have received from the Health Board and the Coeliac Society. As cookessentials said what suits one person does not suit another and I choose to believe that we have to credit people with enough intelligence to work out for themselves what they can or cannot eat. nanee2jlp - 2010-07-05 20:12:00 |
| 685 | Melford, for me personally, you are the 'face' of how we are choosing to approach a coeliacs lifestyle for our family and our youngest. She didn't choose her condition. WE didn't choose her condition, nor did we diagnose it, the medical fraternity did that. We have made the decision that we wish to limit her lifestyle and her diet as little as possible, and differentiate it as little as possible, because at four years old, the pain of even that is hard to bear for a little one. We try to look at, and focus on what she can have, rather than seeking to unnecessarily limit it. It seems to me, there are two approaches. There is room for more than one approach. Each approach should be able to respect the other, and not try and impose itself on the other. I.e, keep to their own threads. mbos - 2010-07-05 20:28:00 |

| 693 | Hi everyone, I don't post much now, mainly because I have got on with my life, I eat what I like when I like and how I like. Sometimes I have a smile when I think, if only Herika could see me sink my teeth into gf sausage or something similar. I do come back in here occassionally and all I see is people throwing bricks at each other, and it totally frustrates me. What i would like is to see more recipes, as after all this is a recipe thread!!!! Thanks for the recipes cookessentials, I'm hungry now. cathnjim - 2010-07-06 14:44:00 |

| 695 | Will try some of these recipes - Have been GF for a year & lost 12 kgs! Have adapted the family diet, however, miss 7 now looks as if needs to be GF, so will probably put a little more effort into being better at it. But I agree that the cost is the worst part of being GF! although some GF food is just plain nasty! brummie-kiwi - 2010-07-06 15:38:00 |
