Why it works
- Hashimoto's thyroiditis: Cod, rice flour and potatoes come with gluten-free fish sauce, without soy, legumes or dairy.
- Celiac disease: Gluten-free rice flour and gluten-free fish sauce keep wheat, barley, rye and hidden gluten out.
- Wheat allergy: Gluten-free rice flour makes the batter, with no wheat or related grains.
- Gluten-free: Gluten-free rice flour and fish sauce keep the batter and dip free of gluten-containing grains.
- Kid (4–12): Crisp cod strips and golden chips come with a tangy dip for dunking.
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.
