Gf Teriyaki Sauce

Hi,

I'm posting this on behalf of a friend of mine who has Celiac disease, but doesn't post on any boards. Rather than phrase it myself, I'll just let you read the e-mail:

celiac3270 - I have a favor to ask you.  I've been looking for gluten-free teriyaki sauce in the health food stores but have not been able to find it.  Teriyaki sauce always has soy sauce in it and, as you well know, soy sauce has wheat in it.  While health food stores always carry gluten-free soy sauce, there doesn't seem to be a gluten-free teriyaki.  I am unfamiliar with the chat boards, but I was wondering if you wouldn't mind asking the question on my behalf - is there a gluten-free teriyaki sauce on the market and where can it be found?  I hope you don't mind!  If it's a problem, not to worry, I'm sure I can figure it out.  Thanks so much.

So, gluten-free teriyaki sauce, anyone? B)

I always make my own - I like extra pineapple in it, and it's not hard to make, bottle, and keep a bunch in the fridge for future use. (I posted the recipe I use a while back in my big long list of recipes, I think.)

Premiere Japan has a gluten-free Teriyaki Sauce. You can find it some places on line, or they sell it in Whole Foods.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I just had to run downstairs to my kitchen as I knew I had some.

The website is Open Original Shared Link The Premier Japan Teriyaki ust says "Wheat free" but looking at all the ingredients it should be fine.

They list the gluten-free products here.

Open Original Shared Link

Note, I was extreamly excited to get an email from a semi-fast food chain that is out here in Colorado. Its called Tokyo-Joes, its basically advertised "fast food, japenese style" But in the coming months they aree going to add a gluten-free teryaki bowl to their menu. They are have a gluten-free Soy sauce, and they Chicken Curry bowl is gluten-free.

mmm.. Ok now I think I need to head there for lunch... or maybe its a late lunch now...

E-Z Marinader is gluten-free. It is in a pouch and is made by Heinz, I just buy it in the Supermarket.

I wish it didn't only come in a pouch because then you can't just use a little. But at least I found it and it's a good one.

Hi, just wanted to add that I bought Diana Sauce Teriyaki Marinade yesterday. It is made by Heinz and according to my Canadian gluten-free products list, it is gluten-free! There is also nothing suspicious looking on the label :) I am going to marinade me some chicken tomorrow, yummy! I love teriyaki and I haven't had any since I went gluten-free :)

I bought a Wheat free soy sauce for my son... would that be gluten-free too? It has water, organic soybeans, salt and organic alcohol. Thanks for any help.

It's not glamorous and gourmet, but I believe La Choy teriyaki sauce is gluten-free, as is their soy sauce. Should be easier to find than brands you can only get at health food stores.

Oh, just editing to clarify (even though it should be clear from the quote) that I was responding to mcsteffi, and not to lpellegr about La Choy.

Not necessarily. There could still be rye or barley. Water would be fine, so would the soybeans and salt. The alcohol you're not sure of... you don't know what type. You should call.

In that sense, however, the alcohol is distilled, and should be fine, even if it is wheat based. Though "wheat free" doesn't mean gluten free, it *can* if there are no other gluten containing ingredients. The soy sauce you refer to there is almost certainly gluten free, and I would certainly believe so off of that ingredient list.

And yet, beer is distilled, but considered not gluten-free (not to undermine you, though; I, too, trust distilled--vinegar, for example--even if the distillation process involves gluten-containing grains. The difference is that w/ beer, I think they add some barley back after distilling or something.

Beer isn't distilled.

Oh... ok... well some alcohol isn't gluten-free, because in whatever way beer is produced :P , it often contains barley.

But alcohol that's listed as an ingredient on the label of a food has to meet certain requirements, and one of them is that it's distilled. Same way that there are requirements about what "vinegar" means on a label. If beer is an ingredient in something, it's got to list beer (or the beer ingredients). That's why I wouldn't be concerned about gluten in an alcohol listed in the ingredients for a soy sauce if you are fine with distilled products.

It's a good point, sometimes we use words generically and don't think about how we're using them, and if we're not being careful, might over generalize to the point where you'd think that. But we also don't want to get caught in over generalizing things incorrectly - which, granted, is sometimes tough to do. :-)

Wow...you really know what you're talking about with the alcohol situation. I, obviously, do not :)

Eh. I learned the labeling thing from someone on here! Gotta love this place. :-)

      Your suspicion is almost certainly correct, and you are wise to be cautious.

Many in the community are also interested in the intersection of natural wellness and gluten-free living, particularly for managing systemic inflammation and its various symptoms, so sharing your story is valuable. Your observation that it may also be helping with bloating is fascinating, as that could point to an overall reduction in inflammation. Thank you for sharing what is working for you!

      Gluten and short-term memory.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's interesting how a single, clear moment—like struggling during a game—can suddenly connect all the dots and reveal the hidden impact of gluten exposure. Your experience with short-term memory fog is a very real and documented symptom for many individuals with gluten sensitivity, often occurring alongside the other issues you mentioned like mood disturbances, sleep disruption, and digestive irregularity. It's a frustrating and often invisible effect that can make you feel unlike yourself, so that moment of clarity, though born from a tough dominoes match, is actually a powerful piece of self-knowledge. Identifying a specific culprit like that steak strip is a huge win, as it arms you with the information needed to avoid similar pitfalls in the future and protect your cognitive clarity. You are definitely not alone in experiencing this particular set of neurological and physical symptoms; it's a strong reminder of gluten's profound impact on the entire body, not just the digestive system. Supplementation may help you as well.  The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.

      Reintroduction of Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS. What you're describing is a very common and frustrating experience when reintroducing gluten after a period of avoidance, and your timeline is perfectly consistent with a non-celiac gluten sensitivity. While a celiac reaction can be more immediate, a sensitivity reaction is often delayed, sometimes taking several days to manifest as your body's inflammatory response builds up; the fact that your symptoms returned a few days after reintroduction is a strong indicator that gluten is indeed the culprit, not a coincidence. Your doctor's advice to reintroduce it was necessary to confirm the diagnosis, as the initial negative celiac test and subsequent improvement on a gluten-free diet pointed strongly towards sensitivity. Many in this community have gone through this exact same process of elimination and challenging, and it's wise to reintroduce gently as you did. Given your clear reaction, the best course of action is likely to resume a strict gluten-free diet, as managing a sensitivity is the primary way to control those debilitating symptoms and allow your body to heal fully.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your suspicion is almost certainly correct, and you are wise to be cautious. Draft cider is a very common and often overlooked source of cross-contact because the same tap lines are frequently used for both beer and cider; unless a bar has a dedicated line for gluten-free beverages, which is rare, the cider will run through tubing that has previously contained gluten-containing beer, contaminating your drink. The fact that you didn't react at a clean brewery suggests they may have had more meticulous practices or separate lines, but this is the exception, not the rule. Many in the community have had identical experiences, leading them to strictly avoid draft cider and opt for bottled or canned versions, which are poured directly from their sealed container and bypass the contaminated tap system entirely. Switching to bottles or cans is the safest strategy, and your plan to do so is a smart move to protect your health. PS - here are some articles on the topic:

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your post really highlights the financial and emotional struggle so many families face. You are not alone in feeling frustrated by the high cost of gluten-free specialty items and the frustrating waste when your daughter can't tolerate them. A great place to start is by focusing on naturally gluten-free whole foods that are often more affordable and less processed, like rice, potatoes, beans, lentils, corn, eggs, and frozen fruits and vegetables—these are nutritional powerhouses that can form the basis of her meals. For the specialty items like bread and pasta, see if your local stores carry smaller, single-serving packages or allow returns if a product causes a reaction, as some companies understand this challenge. Regarding vitamins, that is an excellent next step; please ask her doctor to prescribe a high-quality gluten-free multivitamin, as insurance will often cover prescribed vitamins, making them much more affordable. Finally, connecting with a local celiac support group online can be a treasure trove of location-specific advice for finding the best and most affordable products in your area, saving you both time and money on the trial-and-error process.
