This year is my first gf. It's difficult to imagine our

sedar with the MIL's matza ball soup and Aunt Nonie's home

made gefilte fish...both made with real matzah. My 11yr old

and I will skip our favorite parts of the meal. : (

On a brighter note, I made a Passover Nut cake today with

Pesach crumbs instead of cake meal and it turned out WONDERFUL!!

So, no soup, no fish, but plenty of CAKE!! : )

I actually plan on cooking naturally gf and kosher for passover

foods....steamed veggies with spices, and grilled chicken.

This will be my third passover with celiac disease. Basically,

I eat

the same way I usually do. Alot of salads, nuts, raisins, and

fruits. Kedem makes gefilte fish with potato starch. So, I get

to

have that, too.

What do you others do? Do you do anything special? Is it

difficult

or no different than the rest of the year?

Thanks.

no different for me from the rest of the year. I never liked matzah

balls and I have always made my own gefilte fish using potato starch

and not matzah meal. I discovered Meal Mart makes non-gebrokts

gefilte fish that is also quite good.

I am going to make matzah with potato starch and have bought the gf

oat matzah for our first night seder which is going to be at a

Lubavitcher family.

Since we eat kitniot, the only real difference in our diet is that I

don't bake bread during Pesach.

We have never OD'd on cake during Pesach because I have a

philosophical issue with cake on Pesach.

we just eat lots of fresh, unprocessed foods during Pesach (which is

really very similar to how we eat all year round).

I've just remembered that I don't have any chametz to burn. We

finished all the bread yesterday. I suppose I am going to have to

bake bread tomorrow so that the kids can chase around and burn some

chametz before Pesach.

Where did you get the Passover crumbs?

Also, could you give me the recipe for the cake you made?

One thing that is interesting is that Dannon will only certify their plain yogurts during the year as being "gluten safe". But on Passover, their vanilla yogurt is labeled as kosher for passover which means that it should be gluten free.

Thanks.

This is my 8th gluten-free Pesach. It's a bit different than my usual

diet since I only eat things which are definitely kosher for Passover.

There are a few foods which are GF because they're distilled, but

still probably actual chametz. Mayonnaise, mustard, hot sauce, and

ketchup have vinegar; frozen vegetables sometimes get processed on

the same lines as pasta+vegie mixes; vanilla extract is made from

grain alcohol.

I make lots of use of fresh lemon and lime, frozen OJ concentrate, hot

paprika, turmeric, fresh ginger, wine, fresh herbs, dried fruit, and

all kinds of fresh vegetables and fruits for seasoning. For a week, I

can do pretty well with the limited palette.
