Re: Rice protein powder / Rice

[Guest guest]

I'd be suspicious of the rice syrup solids. Some rice syrup comes from

barley, though you could probably call them and find out. As a celiac, I

have to avoid rice syrup for that reason.

Rice protein powder / Rice

I recently discovered that I can't eat rice protein powder, at least

the MLO Brown Rice Protein product I bought to use with the egg white

protein powder I had. The MLO product has brown rice protein

concentrate, rice syrup solids, rice bran. Could it be that the rice

bran or rice syrup solids are causing the trouble and not the rice

protein? I wonder if I could use some other rice protein product?

I was a little surprised to find that the MLO Brown Rice Protein

product was causing my digestive system trouble. On the other hand,

I fix a tuna rice casserole for my kids about every 2-4 weeks and it

does seem to bother my digestive system a little bit too, but in a

slightly different way. I use organic long grain brown rice in the

casserole.

When I have planned ahead to cook the casserole I have tried soaking

the rice for about a day before cooking it, based on the information

Axel posted several months ago about the benefit of doing that. I

think I digest the rice better when it has been soaked for a day,

although I haven't done it enough times to reach a definite

conclusion.

Don,

I can remember his suggesting soaking over 2 years ago, when he first joined

the list.

The message I am thinking of was posted quite some time ago probably

over a year ago, but I don't remember when. I think the posted

information was the conclusions of some study done in Japan that

soaking rice for 21 hours before cooking made it more nutritious.

I probably will just use egg white protein powder for those times

when I want/need a protein powder.

Once I find something that bothers me I lose interest in

experimenting with trying to find my exact limits with related or

similar foods. It is easier just to stick with the clearly good and

safe foods.

However, I have to admit it would be nice to be able to eat rice

every once in a while without having a problem with it.

Nutribiotics Rice protein is only rice. Have not had anybody complain about

problems with it.

Don, Could you share your recipe for tuna rice casserole? I like

casseroles, but haven't made any since starting the BTD because it seems

like they all use soup.

Tuna Rice Casserole

2 cups dry rice

3 cans of tuna

? green peas (I use about 1/3 of a big bag of frozen peas)

? chopped mushrooms (use as much as you want)

2 cups soymilk

1-2 Tsp. fresh ground peppercorns

1 Tsp dulse or salt

dry parsley

Preferably soak the rice for around 21 hours. Then cook the rice

separetely. I use a rice cooker. Mix and warm, not cook, the peas,

tuna, mushrooms, spices, and about 1 cup of soymilk on the stove.

When the rice is done and the other items are warm add them together

in a casserole dish. I then add more soymilk, if needed, until I can

see the soymilk on one end when I tilt the dish slightly. The amount

you use will be based on how moist you like it when you eat it.

Optionally, sprinkle dry parsley on the top. Put it in the oven at

350 degrees for about 30 minutes.

My kids really like it. It makes enough for the 3 of us for dinner

and usually leftovers for lunch for me the next day.

Thanks, I read about it and it sounds like it might be worth trying.
