Gluten Free Catering in Manhattan

Unless you have eaten a gluten free diet, it is nearly impossible to understand the challenges. Eating a gluten free diet is not an easy task because once you start learning how much of the American diet includes gluten, it becomes an overwhelming undertaking. It is not just removing wheat but it involves knowing which gluten derived preservatives or food additives contain gluten. It is a massive undertaking to create a gluten free lifestyle, especially when it comes to cooking, shopping or eating out.

Typically, people turn to a gluten free diet because they are gluten sensitive in some way or have Celiac disease. This means that contamination from gluten causes actual pain or harm to the body when ingested. It is incredibly important that there be zero gluten contamination or it can undo all the healing you have worked so hard to attain. Gluten contamination when cooking, preparing and serving is so easy and while some have good intentions to make gluten free meals, simple mistakes can ruin a gluten free dish for anyone wishing for a completely gluten free meal. When it comes to finding an excellent Manhattan gluten free catering, you need one who understands all this and Thomas Oliver’s Gourmet Catering is one you can trust for incredible gluten free dishes. Below are just a few things an exceptional cater does to create amazing gluten free dishes.

1-The best gluten free caterers in Manhattan safely prepare gluten free dishes

You can have the most incredible gluten free meal ever, but if it is contaminated in the cooking, preparing or serving process, who cares what it tastes like, it is no longer gluten free. In order to create gluten free meals safely, you need to prepare them in an area with zero contaminants because someone who is gluten sensitive or intolerant, cannot feel the effects of gluten in even the minutest particles. Grilling, chopping, mixing or prepping food where previous glutenous foods were just prepared means that you are introducing those contaminants into the food. It is important to serve and prepare gluten free foods in their own area.

2-The best caterers have a variety of gluten free options

Those who eat a gluten free diet get really tired of the only gluten free options at restaurants or events being naked salads, plain fruit or steamed vegetables. In many instances, you are lucky to get anything at all. After awhile, you just get used to having nothing to eat at special events, so when you find a caterer that goes out of their way to not only provide safe, gluten free dishes but a variety of things to eat, it is shocking and amazing. An amazing Manhattan gluten free caterer that goes out of there way to come up with a spread of multiple gluten free options deserves a standing ovation.
