Going Out For Sushi

We're going out for sushi tonight for the first time since I've gone gluten free. I'm hoping it will be a good experience as we don't go very often.

I feel prepared for what to order and what not to order and I'm looking forward to trying some new things that I haven't tried before because I got in the habit of having the same few I know I like.

If my memory is correct, the octopus is not gluten free and all (most) imitation crab meat is not gluten free.

See this thread:

No miso soup or tempura (obviously). Stay away from eel, I believe it's the freshwater one that has the sweet sauce which contains soy sauce. Bring your own soy sauce, of course!

I'd never heard about octopus being non-gluten-free. Stay away from futomaki, the rolls with lots of items...the tamago (egg) and kampyo (gourd) are both prepared with soy sauce. I love sashimi or a dish called chirashi-sushi, which is a big bowl of raw fish on top of sushi rice. Yum!

Yup, memory not so good. It's the eel, not the octopus. Who would eat either, yuck. :unsure:

It seems that life was a little easier regarding sushi restaurants just a decade or so ago, and this may be more of a regional thing, but's it's definitely at both ends of the east coast here in the states. Now when I see sushi on the menu, it isn't always a Japanese restaurant that I'm sitting in. This makes for some disasters, but also for some serendipity. For instance a soup that I ordered in one of these fusion restaurants in Florida, which would normally not contain any soy sauce because it was a Thai soup and fish sauce is more commonly used was soy sauced to pieces. OTOH, one of the Thai restaurants that I frequent here in Maine serves decent sushi that seems to have the usual restrictions for celiacs, but since it's a Thai restaurant and they use rice flour in everything, I can have their tempura, because it and everything that gets deep-fried is rice flour-based. Combine that with the language barrier that sometimes crops up and you've got a real shot in the dark.

Hope you had a good experience, gfpagan!

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      Well, that's interesting. I am lactose intolerant and have been managing that for years. I'd be interested in seeing if that changes once I feel better from not eating gluten (one thing at a time for now, though). Helpful to hear about the avenin. I will do some digging and pose that to the dietitian. Grateful for your feedback.

      High blood test numbers - with scales. Any advice?

      I agree with @RMJ, you have multiple positive tests so celiac disease is likely. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease.

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      One small study found that 50% of celiacs react to the dairy protein "casein" like they do to gluten. It is also common for celiacs to be lactose (the sugar in milk) intolerant, though that often disappears in time as the villi heal. About 10% of celiacs react to the oat protein "avenin" like they do gluten.

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      Thank you so much Trents (Scott?)! I have started working with a dietitian and did a deep research dive as soon as I got the diagnosis. I am aware of what you mentioned in the first two paragraphs, and was not aware of anything in the third, so I am grateful for that information, and will talk to the dietitian about that. I think I was most interested in...

Even if you clean it this is not good practise and will be making many children ill. I learnt adults butterfly chicken cooked on a grill purely for chicken.  This is fine and what we ordered however nandos need to take note of your practises for the safety of celiac children. my daughter has been ill from their nandinos chicken before and i emailed head office and they wouldnt accept responsibility

I am aware of what you mentioned in the first two paragraphs, and was not aware of anything in the third, so I am grateful for that information, and will talk to the dietitian about that. I think I was most interested in the withdrawal process - it gives me hope that, although I have felt unwell recently, I just need to be patient (not a strong suit). I have printed the article you sent and will look at it more closely. Thanks again!
