Why it works
- Celiac disease: Everything is gluten-free: the breadcrumbs, the Worcestershire and no flour anywhere.
- Milk allergy: No milk, cheese or butter: the glaze is ketchup and maple, and olive oil does the roasting.
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.
