Sitting at a kitschy little bar in Florida on St. Patty's day, overheard this gem from the woman next to me: :"I'll have the (something or other) burger, but no bun please, I'm allergic to gluten."Server: "OK ma'am, not a problem, and for your side?" :"The parmesan truffle fries please?"Server: "Ma'am, those do contain gluten, might I suggest our-" :"Oh, it's actually just a gluten sensitivity , I'm sure they'll be fine!"Server:

They're probably frozen, and the type where there is a "crispy coating" on the outside containing the flavoring. That coating is probably flour based.

Flash Gordon Ramsay posted:Why would french fries have gluten? I think EAT THE EGGS RICOLA is right. From http://celiacdisease.about.com/od/glutenfreefoodshopping/f/Gluten-Free-Potatoes.htm quote:French fries you make at home from potato slices should be gluten-free. In addition, many brands of prepared French fries are considered gluten-free.

Ricola is right, the server had mentioned the oil as the culprit. I asked her afterwords how often that happens, and she rolled her eyes and said at least 4-5 times a day anymore. I also got a free drink for suggesting 'gluten sensitivity' is shorthand for "i'm an idiot, and probably don't tip well".

How sensitive to gluten are people with medical conditions? Can the small amount from the oil hurt people with those diseases? Like how sensitive can they be on a scale of peanut allergy go-to-the-hospital bad to somewhat lactose intolerant just-be-uncomfortable bad?

For Celiac, I think the consequences that get mentioned the most are that it stops you from being able to absorb nutrients properly so you can get malnutrished, it damages your intestinal tract, and you get butt cancer.

I have a celiac friend, it seems that ingesting any amount results in diarrhea, but it's not one of those go-to-the-hospital-immediately type of reactions peanut people get.

Steve Yun posted:I have a celiac friend, it seems that ingesting any amount results in diarrhea, but it's not one of those go-to-the-hospital-immediately type of reactions peanut people get. No hospital, but usually diarrhea, pain, swelling. For celiac's, gluten triggers an auto immune reaction where your body attacks your villi, basically ripping them apart. It's not actually the gluten damaging the guts. They've actually learned there are several different genes responsible for celiac, and that different combinations can cause different severity of reactions. So for some people, the trace amounts in the oil would gently caress them up. Then we have gluten allergy, an IgE reaction resulting in a histamine reaction, such as hives, swollen tongue, itching and diarrhea. Then we have an IgG reaction which is called a sensitivity, but can often times be more unpleasant than an IgE, however the body takes longer to react to it in this case. This is what people tout all the time, but you actually need blood work done to confirm this. Then we have trendy fucks not eating gluten because they read an article from some obscure source that touts the benefits of not eating gluten. Instead of eating better all around, they make everyone's life difficult. It's really no fun having a food allergy, and it makes dinning out really difficult and not worth it very often.

I was reading this article with the guy who played Eli Roosevelt on Sons of Anarchy because he's an awesome character and he's talking about his weight loss and had this to say:quote:One day my wife looks at me and said ‘every time you eat something your stomach blows up, even the smallest portion of anything. I think you may have a gluten problem.’ I got off gluten for a week and lost seven pounds. Ugggghhhhhhhhhh no you did not lose seven pounds in a week and the reason you're feeling better is because you're not filling your body with poo poo garbage foods. It's the McDonalds you were stuffing in your face, not the gluten oewkn;'OREKN;OAKNG;A

His rule is that he doesn't eat gluten, but he'll drink it. Hey, it worked for him - cutting out the ever-present office snacks (bagels, cookies, donuts, baked thing someone brought in) and avoiding pizza, burgers, etc. He dropped some weight and looks great and feels a lot better. But, he also doesn't claim an allergy and will just order a salad if that's what there is, so at least he's not a dick about it. I do kinda wonder why he didn't just go on a diet rather than deciding to cut every bit of wheat out of his life though.

Because going on a "diet" is something that women do. or If I have something wrong with me, like an intolerance, then it's not my fault that I ruined my life with poor eating habits. Now I can be healthy(er) and it's not my fault. Win-win.

A slow cooker is clutch when you get home from work and just wanna mash some poo poo together for instant dinner. Also rutabaga needs some time to soften up and get that nice smoky flavor you want out of it. I only had time for one picture before I ate two whole bowls of this stuff:

Apart from, I assume, being more energy efficient is there anything a slow cooker can do that can't be accomplished as well with a Römertopf in an oven on low heat? They have recently started selling slow cookers here in Sweden, so I'm kind of curious.

You plug it in before you go to work and then when you come home, viola. Being in Sweden though, the "going to work" concern probably isn't big on your radar though.

RedTonic posted:I decided the only reasonable way to handle making the Nola Cuisine guy's daube creole is to do everything in stages. Last night, I roasted the poo poo out of bones, bones, and more bones, plus veggies in some rendered beef marrow fat for good measure. Brown stock is now simmering for the next eternity. I haven't made a beef/veal bone stock in a while and forgot that I dislike the early smell of it. My sense of smell must be busted. That's so weird to me. Whenever I make stock, i have to refrain from being like that guy in the old A1 commercials where he licks the hot grill after dripping sauce on it. I use that site a lot and I've never seen daube creole... I need that in my life yesterday.

My grandpa can eat gluten and won't notice anything until either he dies or gets his blood tested and they see how hosed everything is. The rest get painfully sick from both ends and it's loving terrible.

It smelled way better to me once I had the onions and other aromatics in, that's for sure. Stock came out brown as hell. (I followed Danno's recipe, though my veal bones had meat, connective stuff, and CNS tissue for all I know.) Put it through a chinois and it looks lovely. Can't wait to jam it into every possible recipe. Here's the daube creole though. Tonight I'm lacing the roast, tomorrow is showtime.

Got it from Amazon, at the link below. They recommend letting it heat up for at least 40 minutes (up to an hour) after your oven comes to temp. I don't think I let it heat for a full 40 minutes after it got to temp though. Maybe 30. I cooked my pies on the second rack from the top, with the oven on 525 convection roast (so it use the top element). http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LBKWSGC/

Is there any particular reason I shouldn't make tonkotsu broth (I mean, really, that's gravy) and freeze it a weekend or two in advance of when I plan to use it? Or is it one of those things where the quality will really suffer if it's not same day? Also I love the thermopen.  Thanks to whomever it was earlier who noted the open box sale.

I had good results freezing the broth from this recipe. http://www.goonswithspoons.com/Hakata_Ramen I froze it in plastic yogurt containers (had been using them for stock for years...) and they slide right out after the edges melt a little.

The other week we talked about bacalhau nachos. So I did. Tortilla chips with monterey jack, topped with sauteed zucchini, fresh cucumber, tomato, olives, and bacalhau sauteed in olive oil with garlic. Dressed with wine vinegar and served with a dollop of hummus on the side. Execution was a hot mess, but the concept is sound. Will bacalhau nacho again.
