Why it works
- Gluten-free: Gluten-free tamari and rice keep wheat, barley and rye out of the dish.
- Celiac disease: Gluten-free tamari and rice keep hidden gluten-containing sauces and grains out.
- Wheat allergy: Gluten-free tamari and rice keep wheat and wheat-based sauces out.
Celiac check: watch for hidden gluten in soy sauce, stock, malt vinegar and seasoning blends, and oats that aren’t certified. Gluten gives food ideas, not medical advice: always check labels for allergens and cross-contact.
