Interesting reading:
Gluten Intolerant (http://nourishedmagazine.com.au/blog/articles/bread-dread-are-you-really-gluten-intolerant)
-
Interesting reading MJ,
so we are much better to make our dough the day before and keep in the fridge then bake the following day?
-
Interesting, what is the recipe used? I couldn't see it.

This looks like the one:

Thanks, MJ.

Thanks Cecilia ;)

Very interesting article indeed- I do have two points however,
1. Why has the author not supplied his/her name and instead uses I.N.Cognito?
2. Those people that are truly gluten intolerant ie coeliacs such as myself should probably disregard this article. Even if someone gets no or limited symptoms if they eat gluten (as suggested with a longer fermentation time), anyone with proven gluten intolerance who regularly consumes gluten can get long term complications such as anaemia, malabsorption syndrome, osteoporosis, shortened life expectancy, small bowel lymphoma etc- the list goes on.
I do however think that it is an interesting observation of how our Western diet has evolved over the years ie much more processing of foods and less time going back to the basics. There has to be a reason why food intolerances and allergies are becoming much more commonplace. all I can say is one more reason why we should all rejoice having our thermies!

You're welcome, Meagan.
Merlin, Who knows? But it is obvious from the comment discussion that the author of the article and recipe is "clive lawler", and he refers t two books he has written. Excuse me for not going through the many comments on the original article again, bt somewhere he gives his address too, which I vaguely remember as northern NSW or south eastern Qld.
-
Yes, he does give his name and address. The recipe is also on the site. I'm on my iPad right now, but will find it later on and post the link.
I was speaking about this concept with a friend who is a coeliac and she was very interested in the idea. She said her mother used to make bread the old fashioned way when she was a young girl. She was able to eat bread made with wheat all through her childhood. Her gluten intolerance only happened later on.

Just realised cecilia linked to the recipe.
Thanks cecilia!

Thank you for finding the author's name etc meganjane.
It is also interesting that in the past Coeliac disease was considered a paediatric disorder ie only happened in childhood. In fact , these days, the majority of new diagnoses occur in adults (of any age). For some reason, the genes which predetermine someone's likelihood of developing Coeliac disease get 'switched on' and then symptoms develop. The reason that the estimate of only 10% of those patients who have Coeliac disease know they have it is that many patients may actually have no or mild symptoms only and don't realise they have Coeliac disease. Researchers are obviously looking at why there has been this shift towards more adults developing the symptoms later in life rather than childhood.
