Why it works
- Celiac disease: Everything is from scratch: the sauce is cauliflower and butter, thickened naturally instead of with flour.
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.
