Many people believe that yeast can aggravate allergies. It is also thought that yeast-free, naturally leavened bread like ours is good for those with candida, which is an overgrowth of yeast in the digestive tract. Additionally, this is the way bread used to be made. The farmer grew organic grain, sold it to the baker, who ground it into flour and made it into bread using only water and salt.

We recommend you weigh your flour when the bread doesn’t rise properly, the loaf is too dense or the crust is too hard. Please see below for guidelines:

Unfortunately, no. All of our breads contain wheat flour (white flour is still wheat flour). Gluten is a protein in wheat flour to which some people are allergic. While most people who are allergic to wheat or gluten have mild reactions it can be very severe for some, even fatal.

A Gluten-Free Diet is the only treatment for Celiac Disease (CD) and/or Dermatitis Herpetiformis (DH). It is a life-long committed diet and should not be started before being properly diagnosed with CD/DH. When gluten is removed from the diet, the small intestine will start to heal and overall health improves. Medication is not normally required. Because osteoporosis is common and may be profound in patients with newly diagnosed CD, bone density should be measured at or shortly after diagnosis.

Our breads taste best on the day of purchase, although they will keep longer. Our bread should be kept in its original bag at room temperature. Do not refrigerate. For later use, seal the bread in a plastic freezer bag with closure and freeze. To use it, remove it from the bag, thaw it and heat it in a 425°F oven for 3-5 minutes to obtain a crisp crust. Let cool before eating.

This may be the result of dough that is too hard and dry. The knocking noise is the result of the hard dough being “thrown” against the sides of the baking pan. Add water or milk one teaspoon at a time, until the dough forms a ball. If the Home Bakery breadmaker continues to make knocking noises, check to be sure that the baking pan is locked in place in the machine. If your Home Bakery breadmaker is old, you may need to replace the lock springs.

We recognize an increasing need to provide products for those with special food needs. At this time, we do not have any gluten-free products.

Although the exact cause of celiac disease is not known, having certain genes increases your risk. You are more likely to have these genes and may get celiac disease if you have a first-degree relative (mother, father, brother, sister, son, or daughter) with the condition. Environmental factors, such as viral or bacterial infections, may trigger changes in the small intestine in people with these genes; then, eating foods that contain gluten can trigger an abnormal immune system response.

A few patients have a poor clinical and/or histologic (biopsy) response to the diet. An important step in assessing patients who are non-responders is to confirm the diagnosis of celiac disease by review of the original biopsy, preferably by an expert gastrointestinal pathologist. However, the most common cause of a poor response is continued gluten ingestion, which may be intentional or unintentional.

Dawn Food Products currently does not offer any gluten-free bakery products that would be suitable for someone with Celiac Disease.

Although it has been stated that a person must be eating gluten to be able to detect antibodies to gliadin in blood, we have found that this is not true for our stool tests (and other researchers have found the same when sampling upper intestinal contents with tubes). Because the stool tests (but not blood tests) can find low levels of antigliadin antibody produced in the intestine, we actually recommend that you be tested on your current diet, that is, gluten-containing or gluten-free.

Because La Brea Bakery breads do not contain any preservatives we recommend that they be eaten on the day of purchase. Some breads will last longer, and certainly all breads can be used for toast or a grilled sandwich the day after purchase (even though the crust is harder, the interior will remain moist). If you have bought more bread than can be eaten right away, place our bread in a plastic bag and freeze.
