  2. I travel pretty much all over. much depends on where you going and how much research your willing to do but in any better hotel if you talk to the chef, they will understand and know what to do. Nost hotels at least here in hawaii where 12% of the guests have celiac, they have dedicated kitchen areas. good luck
  3. true of all pre packaged curries in japan. S&B, House, Vermont brands have high amounts of wheat. So do rice balls, (onigiri) at 7-`11 and family mart with few exceptions
  4. great list in kanji that Kane posted below, again alot is built on the relationships. There are many Indian restaurants in Tokyo and 90% are fine if you know the food and what to order. A lot is built on the relationships you make in Japan. Where will you be? I might know someone close who can show you around a little. great list
  5. learn the kanji for ko mugi -- wheat Omugi barley find your own soy sauce -- they have a really good sorghum shoyu at some markets like LIFE -- What schoo and where will you be in TOkyo. Might be able to tell you some spots close by depends if your drinking or not. Many small neighborhood places people want to talk or practice...
  6. Next year will be my 40th year of working & lecturing in Japan. 20 of those with celiac. I also went to culinary school in Tokyo so I know a little about how chefs there thinkl Many dont realize shoyu is wheat, they assume its soy beans. Dependsiong on where you go to eat, carry bottle of gluten free soy sauce or braggs aminos that you can...
  7. Annatto is from achiote tree (Bixa orellana), Its simply the ground seed of this tropicak tree and not at all dangerous to celiacs
  8. I do all the time but then I'm in Kona. Until we can get some of the flour to the mainland we are at a standstill. The ULU coop here just does frozen pieces as well as making chocolate mousse and an amazing hummus. mu wife is making some xmas cookies using it. At the breadfruit institue we have dont a ot of testing but your lucky on Maui to Have...
  9. I'm pretty sensitive and never had a problem with Tanqueray. The Tanqueray rangpur is especially good!
  10. There is no one answer -- everyone is different. If i ate your burger I wuld leave a trail from both ends trying to get out of the place or to the washroom -- whatever is closer. There are a lot of alternatives to that type of plum sauce with the obvious being make your own. Dry spices are usually no problem but you have to read every ingredient...
  11. Your lucky, been gluten-free for more than 15 years and never had plantar fasciitis until 5 years ago. If there is a connection i sure wish it worked for me
  12. thanks for posting this one, Have to get there this year or next on a project and was wondering.
  13. has to make sure she is really 100% gluten free and NO CHEATING. I threw up every day for 6 months until they figured out it was celiac. Three days after that I was ok again.
  14. 90% of hte time for us in Hawaii its antique yeast -- which doesnt last long here anyway but finding it fresh is a must. We are doing 30 loaves a week for the farmers market so it has to work
  15. Never had a problem in Spain or Italy. Dont get to france too often. Finding a good tapas place in Spain should mke it easy to find a dozen different small plate dishes to enjoy. In Italy should be able to find a list online from the Italian Celiaco organization Good luck
  16. in LA check out Sage which I think is on 7000 sunset Blvd. Great place mostly vegan and gluten free. Been a long time since I was in mexico but black bean dishes and fish should be ok. Just have to amke sure the tacos, tortilas and chips are 100% corn. Out in the neighborhoods there are a lot of dishes with beans and rice with or without meat -- what...
  17. There are a number of places but hard ot find and they dont speak any english at least in Tokyo. Bring your own soy sauce or braggs aminos. You can find gluten free soy sauce in Japan but there are no english labels. You can eat yakitori but have to explain to them only shio -- salt ko-mugi alerge (wheat allergy) and some will understand. ...
  18. now thats deal for there. My wife just bought the big two jar set yesterday forgetting they we bought one set together last week. Going to be having a lot of them over the next few months!
  19. Been enjoing them for years both cooked in gluten-free pasta and raw in salads. Never a problem with them.
  20. Having lived in Barcelona and worked in Milan and Parma, Ive found the many of the good restaurants are using different type of original wheats like Einkorn and Ferro and different French wheats whos names I forget. Some new hybrid wheats can have 14 times the amount of gliaden protein than these non hybrid wheats. IN japan they even...
  21. i would tend to agree with your mom and that comes from more than 30 years in and out of Japan. the quality of the produce, meat and fish tends to be much better than the US becsaue it gets to market much faster and becasue there is a demand for quality above the demand for low price. As it was pointed out, this has nothing to do with gluten. ...
  22. There are a few hundred types of bananas although we only get a few in most western stores. When you talk organic bananas there could be different types. All bananas are divided into groups of A (acuminata sugars) and B (balbisiana - starch) they are classed but chromosomes so your average williams bananas is aab or 2 parts sugar to 1 part starch -- Organic...
  23. Many go vegan because of celiac disease and the other problems it can cause.
  24. hi, never heard of s komatsu. Whats the location in Tokyo? If they have a gluten-free diet its becasue they cater to foreigners. The rate of celiac in Japan is opposite of Italy. ALmost know one knows of it. I never had any problem with any vinegars in Japan. they dont put soy sauce on the sushi but will put a sweet sauce on somethings ...
