Thank you, and great point!! I used to use rice flour during shaping but started to just use my regular flour ... I needed that reminder to return to rice flour.
And your point about gluten presence, I did look up a bit more about testing and found there are different gluten breakdown methods/by products and different antibodies/methods of testing for them:
some "test kits recognize several fragments, including the toxic portion in addition to other, non-toxic fragments of the gliadin molecule, the G12 antibody hones in specifically on the toxic fragment, so that the most important fragment to the celiac patient is not diluted out"
(https://www.amazon.com/Gluten-Test-Tests-Contamination-GlutenTox/dp/B00SZ0D1GC/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8)
"There are three commonly used antibodies for gluten detection in food products: 401.21 (Skerritt), R5 (Mendez), and G12. Each of these antibodies has been rigorously tested in interlaboratory studies around the world. Although these are sometimes referred to as “methods,” each of these antibodies are tools found in commonly used test methods.
Skerritt is the oldest of these antibodies and recognizes both gliadin and glutenin components of gluten, providing the broadest view of gluten content. Tests using the Skerritt antibody are useful for testing processed foods for total gluten content when wheat allergies, gluten sensitivity, or Celiac disease is of concern.
R5 is a newer antibody capable of providing enhanced measurements of hydrolyzed gluten, which has been broken down into smaller molecules in products such as beer. This antibody specifically recognizes the gliadin component of gluten found in most wheats. Tests using the R5 antibody are useful for testing hydrolyzed or fermented products for the presence of gliadin that may be broken down.
G12 is the newest available antibody and specifically recognizes the portion of gliadin that can cause an immune response in patients with Celiac disease. Gluten-free products or wheat (and gluten) containing products lacking this specific component of gliadin may be less damaging to patients with Celiac disease. Tests using the G12 antibody are useful for analyzing foods when Celiac disease is the primary concern."
