 IS MILLET OK? ALSO PROCESSED CHEESE  Posted by
I have not found any bread that is even remotely palatable that is GF until a local bakery advertising GF Millet bread which I promptly bought. The ingredients are: Organic Millet Flour, brown rice flour, water, baking powder, sea salt. Is this acceptable? Also, I am told I can't eat "processed" cheese, ie: American slices. Is this true? Thank you

Post a reply to this message, or post a new topic

 Re: IS MILLET OK? ALSO PROCESSED CHEESE  Posted by Peter
Millet and rice flour are OK. There is a risk of cross-contamination in a bakery also producing other bread containing gluten. You could also check that the baking powder doesn't contain gluten - some brands do!

Cheese is OK, but sliced cheese may be dusted with flour to stop the slices sticking together.

 Re: IS MILLET OK? ALSO PROCESSED CHEESE  Posted by
It seems that many cheeses, such as ricotta, mozzarrela (even fresh) are made with whey or "cultures" (non-specified) or vinegar. Most have "rennin" which, while was once an animal product is now made with chemicals. A family memebr has a particularly bad case of celiac sprue and while he can drink milk and have milk products (so we know its not a lactose intolerance thing) he cannot have any of the itialian cheeses listed above. I have made several attempts to buy these cheeses fresh but even they cause a reaction. Does anyone out there have a solution

I have not been able to find a Millet Bread Recipe. Would you know where I could find one?

Also, my celiac daughter found an article that said that tests seem to prove that the process to turn Barley into Malt flavoring, extract, etc. may remove the gluten. Have you ever read anything about this? It was an article written by an employee from Kelloge.

Thanks

I no longer recomend Deland Millet Bread. After eating it for many weeks without any problems - it did make my husband very sick. We no longer use it. We have heard from others that it has as much as 20 persent wheat in it even though it is not listed on the label. Also (with interest) is the fact that the store where we bought it now has a letter from Deland Bakery attached to the shelves where the bread is displayed saying that it is not gluten free.

 Re: Millet Bread Recipe  Posted by
Deland Bakery is going to go out of business. I too have had a reaction to there bread. I buy a lot too. So many people are in an UPROAR over this. Deland Bakery had the market on wheat/gluten free bread. No one else can make palatable wheatfree bread that is decent to eat. No one i know buys deland bakery bread unless they are GLUTEN intolerant.. The guy had the corner of the market all to himself. Deland Bakery was the WALMART of bread. I have since been baking my own. Zuccinie comes out really good like carrot cake. But I need a recipee for toasting and sandwich bread now Grr... Maybe they will wise up and go gluten free again

 Re: Millet Bread Recipe  Posted by
Debra, I do not have a recipe for Millet Bread - have not been able to find
one. My mother does our gluten-free baking, and is willing to experiment to
see if she can come up with a good bread product. I would like to duplicate
the taste and texture of the Deland Millet Bread - but when that product was
sent for testing, it was discovered that it contained 20\% gluten - either
from wheat or from cross contamination. That bakery is still selling that
same product without listing gluten on the label - so I am sure many people
are using it that do not know. It is still in the health food store that I
shop at. Only organic millet, brown rice, water, baking powder and sea salt
are listed on the label. My husband became very ill after eating it for
many months. It took over 6 months for him to heal and get back to normal
health. He did not have any symptoms until he became so sick he could
barely keep going. I was afraid he was going to die.

If we do make a good product, I will contact you.

 Re Millet Bread Recipe  Posted by Peter Thomson's Millet recipe
Ingredients

¼ pint / 150ml water or milk

1 or 2 eggs

1 large banana

4 oz / 100g millet flour

4 oz / 100g rice flour

1 tsp / 4g bicarbonate of soda

½ tsp / 2g cream of tartar

salt to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

Beat the banana to a smooth pureé with the milk andegg. This is best done in a liquidiser.

Mix all the dry ingredients for the bread together with a tablespoon of oil .

Fold the flour mixture into the pureé. Do not overmix and do not leave to stand at this point or you will lose the light structure tothe bread dough.

Pour the batter, 1" or 2cm deep, into a shallow 10" square baking tray lined with non-stick baking parchment.

Cooking

Preheated oven

gas mark 7 425°F 220°C

Bake for 35 to 45 minutes.

Always check that a loaf is cooked by using a skewer through the middle. The loaf is not cooked until the skewer comes out clean. A part cooked loaf can be turned over on the baking tray to ensure even cooking.

 Re Millet Bread Recipe  Posted by Peter
It is the gluten in wheat that makes products like pasta, and macaroni much easier to make. It also prevents them from breaking up when boiled in water.

You could try using egg or various edible gums with millet to make a macaroni type product.

I do not have an intolerance to gluten but have been avoiding it for health reasons. Sami's bakery in Tampa makes a millet, flax and brown rice bread that is pretty good. It does not list wheat in the ingredients yet does not say "gluten-free" on the label. Some of you may want to try this bread. It can be ordered online at www.samisbakery.com Good luck!

 Re Millet Bread Recipe  Posted by Pat Myers
Hello,
I have a 5 yr. old daughter who canno't tolerate any gluten or dairy products. I want to try Peter Thomson's Millet recipe, but have a few questions. First of all, I will readily admit that I rarely bake anything, let alone bread! I was wondering if anyone could tell me what biocarbonate of water is and where I can purchase it? I am also uncertain what cream of tartar is, so can someone please tell me where this can be purchased as well.

Many Thanks, Pat (hampam -at- juno.com)

 Re Millet Bread Recipe  Posted by Peter
Bicarbonate of Soda and Cream of Tartar are the raising agent. They react together to produce bubbles of carbon dioxide inside the bread as it cooks.

Baking powder is made from Bicarbonate of Soda and Cream of Tartar and flour.
Since we don't want the flour, which may be wheat flour, we are just buying the ingredients separately. In the UK they are available from the cookery / baking shelf in any large supermarket.

Peter,
Thanks so much for answering my question that I submitted a few weeks ago. Can u tell me if the Potato millet bread that u list above tastes similar to Deland potato millet bread? I still have not tried to make the bread; however, I am thinking of making it today. Since removing my 5 yr. old daughter from wheat, gluten, casein, soy and milk, I am struggling to find a bread she will eat. I suppose I can always add honey or cinnamon to the bread mix to give it a sweeter taste, then maybe she'll give it a try!!??!!
Thanks, Pat

My name is Pat and I attempted to make the millet bread; however, it did not rise much at all? I'm wondering what I may have done incorrectly? The only extra ingredient I added was a little honey.

 Re Millet Bread Recipe  Posted by Peter
Gluten-free breads tend not to rise very much. (It is the gluten in wheat breads that give them the distinct soft texture and lets them rise.)

Cook them in shallow tins, and try hotter then you would for normal breads.
Serve while still fresh and warm. They all go hard as they go cold.

Hello, me and my two children (aged 4 & 7) are gluten intolerant so I'm looking for recipes for breads. Millet sounds good but all the recipes have eggs in them. The 4-year old is egg intolerant - & I'm not sure anyone should eat eggs every day several times a day? Are there any egg-free recipes out there?

I rotate our breads but an looking for one that contains whole grains and no eggs - as natural as possible. Can anyone help?

Many thanks

Seeking bread recipe for dairy, soy, corn, potato, rice, and wheat intolerant toddler. Yes, my dd is allergic to almsot EVERYTHING we introduce to her! It's so bad the 4 times I gave her an organice brown rice she ended up in the hopsital all 4 times! It took me figuring out what was causing it, bc the docs said she couldn'tbe allergic to rice. However, the one thing she can tolerate is Millet. I am noticing all of the recipe's have veggie oil or rice in them and I am wondering if those can be substituted? Also, I currently don't give her eggs, so can it be egg free or at least just egg yolks? This poor girl barely gets to eat anything and I just play iwth textures, since I can't add foods or preservatives and everything must be all natural! She also cannot tolerate any corn derivatives, whihc is almost in everything! Thanks for your help.

 Re Millet Bread Recipe  Posted by Peter
The basic recipe where millet is grown is a porridge. Boil millet in water until soft and serve. Add milk, or whatever other ingredients the child can tolerate.

Rice allergies are more common in countries where rice is the staple diet. It is unusual with a western diet.

The digestive system develops the correct response as a child develops, so continuing with a low allergy milk feed for a longer period may allow the imune response to mature.

I keep trying to get anything even close to Sami's bread with the listed ingredients. Not even close.

Any help appreciated. What would you do with these ingredients?

organic millet flour
brown rice flour
water
aluminum free baking powder
sea salt
organic grounded flax seed

I can also notice flax seeds and millet "peppered' throughout the bread.

Then this...

Processed in a non Gluten free facility. May contain traces of Gluten, Wheat or Yeast.

Must be some pretty big traces or is this possible? Thanks in advance!

I called Sami's bakery and was told the reason they don't advertise "gluten free" is because it is baked in the same pans as other gluten bread. I was eating it for a while and does not seem to bother me, but I am not a big bread eater.

Millet Bread
gluten, dairy and egg free, directions for a programmable bread machine

Ingredients
1-1/8 to 1-3/8 cup water (depending on humidity and how finely ground the flours are)
3 tbs honey
3 tbs oil
2 tsp cider vinegar (might need less if your water is not very basic; mine is)
1 tsp salt
1-1/2 tbs xanthan gum
1 cup millet flour
1 cup cornstarch
1 cup tapioca flour
1 package active yeast (not rapid rise)
Directions
Sift flours and xanthan.
Add first 5 ingredients (water through salt) to bread machine; add flour.
Make a well in the middle of the flour and add yeast.
Program machine for following times
20 minutes preheat
20 minutes knead
75 minutes rise
55 minutes bake
Notes Be sure to use only 1 kneading cycle. Check the dough as it begins to knead to see if you need to add more water (or more flour if it's too wet). The dough should look somewhat wet; should be shiny and swirl up above the dough beaters when it's kneading, but not be too thin.

I am so glad I came across this site. I too have a 7 year old who can not tolerate:

eggs, nuts, wheat, milk, soy, as well as a host of other things. I have found the bread "Food for Life" Millet bread (can be found at Whole Foods or ordered online) is an excellent gluten free bread. Also, have found the book, Hidden Food Allergies, to be incredibly helpful as far as supplements my child needs to help her body absorb minerals/vitamins better, etc. I have also taken her to an acupuncturist who specializes in a technique called NAET, Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Techniques. It is a technique that is difficult to understand from a scientific viewpoint but I have seen it work wonders with my daughter. She can now eat a little wheat without problems.

Post a reply to this message, or post a new topic

 Re: Millet Bread Recipe  Posted by Alysha
Xanthum gum can be found at Whole Foods or other health food store - its a white powder generally found in the baking section. Its made from corn.



I've been playing with millet and came up with this recipe for something like cornbread. I'm on a very restricted diet (Sears elimination) right now so no refined sugar, no eggs, no gluten, no milk.



1 1/2 c. millet flour (sifted)

1/2 c. arrowroot flour

4 heaping tbs pear butter (or can use 1/4 c. sugar or apple sauce)

2 tsp. baking powder (I use a recipe that combines baking soda, cream of tartar, and arrowroot flour)

1/2 tsp salt

1 c. water

1/4 c. vegetable oil (I used sunflower)

1 tbs psyllium husks mixed with 3 tbs water (warning this is also a laxative and so may have some side effects)



Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Grease 8 or 9 inch sq. pan. Combine dry ingredients. Stir in water, oil, pear butter, and psyllium husks/water mixture until moistened. Pour into pan and bake or 20-25 minutes or until brown (I used a toothpick to test for doneness).
