This Is How A Healthy Gluten Free Thali Should Be Like!

There has been a lot of talk about gluten-free products and recipes these days. A gluten-free thali excludes gluten protein. Barley, rye, wheat are the sources of gluten protein.

A gluten-free diet is best for reducing the symptoms of celiac disease and other medical conditions associated with the gluten allergy. Celiac disease is a condition in which gluten triggers the immune system functioning that damages the linings of the small intestine. It is an autoimmune disorder. This damage leads to indigestion or hindrance in absorption.

Following a gluten-free diet is careful attention towards nutrients and its ingredients. Cross-contamination is also a concern in this disease. When it comes to cooking up a gluten-free meal there are few important things to be kept in mind.

Guidelines For Gluten Free Thali

While cooking a gluten-free recipe, these things should be kept in mind – no wheat, rye, and no barley. Making an Indian meal replace roti with brown rice, or make roti with ragi or maize flour. Cooking a Chinese meal, avoid noodles and use rice instead and for a Continental lunch use quinoa, risotto or gluten-free pasta.
