The CCA’s GF 101 Sessions are normally  ‘Members Only’ BUT because we know that so many people need this kind of support, we have opened up the webinar to the public. Everyone welcome! Who is Ellen Bayens?

Communication is the key ingredient to every successful gluten-free restaurant meal. When diners, chefs and servers are able to collaborate on what is required and what can be reasonably delivered, there is cause for celebration!

But where to begin?

The following is a list of suggested questions to help Start the Conversation on Celiac-Friendly Dining©. In very short order, the responses you receive will allow you to gage any given restaurant’s degree of  gluten awareness – and willingness.  For the very best outcome, call ahead or take your host or server aside before ordering.

NOTE: Restaurants that have carefully researched how to serve us love going into detail. If your questions are met with impatience and exasperation – go with your gut. When restaurants get gluten free right, reward them generously!

Question #1

• Please tell me about the meals  you recommend to diners who need to eat gluten free?

Ingredients

• What ingredients will be used to make my order?
• How do staff  know whether ingredients are really gluten free?
  • Says so on labels?
  • Checked product website?
  • Called the manufacturer?
  • Checked with The Celiac Scene? The CCA?
• Will pure spices, prepared seasonings or soy sauce made from wheat be used to make my meal?
• What other food items are cooked in the oil that ‘gluten-free’ items are cooked in?
• How are sauces and dressings thickened?

Procedures

• How will my server communicate with the kitchen that a gluten-free order has been placed?
• How are gluten-free orders prepared in relation to the regular flow of the kitchen?
• Will staff wash their hands / change gloves / change aprons clean surfaces before preparing my order?
• How do staff ensure that all utensils used in preparing my food are free from any trace of gluten?
  • Separate or scrubbed frying pan? Griddle scrubbed? Aluminum foil barrier? Dedicated pots? Dedicated colanders?
• What other precautions do staff take to minimize / prevent cross contamination?
• How will my server confirm with the kitchen that the order they are collecting has been prepared gluten free?
• How will my server confirm that the order they are delivering to me is gluten free?
  

How did the restaurant learn how to meet the needs of gluten-free diners?

• Through The Celiac Scene? Canadian Celiac Association?
• Registered dietitian? Local health authority?
• Staff members with celiac disease?
  

Questions Specific to Pizza Restaurants 

• The risk of cross contamination with airborne gluten flour is HIGH. Partake only if strict protocols are in place to protect your safety.
• Are ‘gluten-free’ crusts prepared on-site? 
  • During regular operations? Before regular production? During downtimes / days?
  • See questions in Ingredient section above.
• Are pre-made ‘gluten-free’ crusts purchased from a dedicated gluten-free manufacturer? Who is the manufacturer?
• How are gluten-free sauces and toppings prepared?
  • During regular operations? Before regular production? During downtimes / days
  • See questions in Ingredient section above.
• How do staff ensure that all utensils used in preparing gluten-free orders are free of any trace of gluten?
• How are utensils, crusts, sauces and toppings protected from cross-contamination with gluten while waiting to be used?
• How will my order be protected from cross-contamination with gluten once it has been prepared and/or while waiting to be served?

If the prospect of grilling restaurants about their gluten-free friendliness feels intimidating, you’ve got options!

Puff Pastry Tips from Dale! 

• “If you have time, it’s best to thaw puff pastry overnight in the fridge.
• If you don’t have time, thaw it on the counter until it’s pliable enough to unfold without cracking, but still cool to the touch. Keep a close eye on it — if the dough feels very limp, refrigerate it for 30 minutes to help it firm up again.
• One of the biggest mistakes you can make is leaving it on the counter for too long. A room-temperature atmosphere will cause the puff pastry to wilt and become floppy. That, in turn, will make the layers stick, and render it almost impossible to work with. If your puff pastry gets too soft, return it to the fridge for 20 to 30 minutes before moving forward.
• Lightly roll out the puff pastry: Dust the top of the puff with just a little GF flour, then use a rolling pin to lightly roll. Puff pastry should be rolled out to approx. 4-5 mm depth.
• Follow any puff pastry recipe, remembering that ALL pastry (gluten-­free or not) ­ bakes off flakiest when chilled for a short time before baking in a hot oven ie 10-15 min in freezer first after making your ‘creation.’
• If you’re making a filled pastry, like a pot pie, for example, cut a few vents in the dough so hot air can escape and circulate as it bakes. If you skip this step, and you’ll have a soggy interior.
• We generally egg wash pastry before baking to give it that yummy golden colour
• A very general rule for baking the puff pastry is the following – bear in mind that oven temperatures vary.
• Set the oven to 200° C (400° F – gas 6) and bake in the middle of the oven for 20 minutes to 25 minutes. Check after 20 minutes as it’s easy to burn the edges from cooking for too long.
• Scraps can be gathered up and be re­used. Make sure that scraps are layered on top of each other – not scrunched up into a ball, before re-rolling.”

Hi! We’re Laura & Carla! 

We’re the sister duo behind ulivit (pronounced you-live-it) and we’re passionate about healthy foods! Crafted in beautiful British Columbia. We grew up in sunny Saskatchewan, land of living skies and endless regenerative farm fields. We learned as kids that food doesn’t magically appear at the grocery store, it grows in our backyard.

As adults, while Laura was working in healthcare, we learned first-hand how what we eat can significantly impact our health. Dropping in on nutrition classes, Laura was introduced to the thing that would change our lives forever… protein packed pulses.

These little plants can feed the world and save our planet! Thus began our passion for pulses and the creation of ulivit where we are trying to share the incredible benefits of Canadian-grown pulses with everyone. Learn more here …

Hi! We’re Laura & Carla! 

We’re the sister duo behind ulivit (pronounced you-live-it) and we’re passionate about healthy foods! Crafted in beautiful British Columbia. We grew up in sunny Saskatchewan, land of living skies and endless regenerative farm fields. We learned as kids that food doesn’t magically appear at the grocery store, it grows in our backyard.

As adults, while Laura was working in healthcare, we learned first-hand how what we eat can significantly impact our health. Dropping in on nutrition classes, Laura was introduced to the thing that would change our lives forever… protein packed pulses.

These little plants can feed the world and save our planet! Thus began our passion for pulses and the creation of ulivit where we are trying to share the incredible benefits of Canadian-grown pulses with everyone. Learn more here …

🌱 Look for the Ulivit Booth at Esquimalt Farmer’s Market at the Gorge in Esquimalt from 4:30 to 7:30 July 31 • August 7, 14, 21, & 28 • September 4

Crafted in British Columbia, ulivit (pronounced you-live-it) plant-based veggie bites & crumbles are a perfect fit for your favorite ground meat, chicken, or scrambled egg recipes!  Swap – or add – ulivit’s farm fresh superfood and make your taste buds & body happy!

Made with pulses from the legume family – dry beans, peas, lentils and chickpeas! Rich in protein, fibre, antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, ulivit’s products are naturally gluten-free, cholesterol-free, allergen-friendly, keto-friendly, low in fat and have a low glycemic index.

Gluten-free, soy-free, non-gmo, vegan, nut-free, dairy-free, preservative-free.
