How to Order Gluten-Free in a Chinese Restaurant

How to Order Gluten-Free in a Chinese Restaurant

Chinese cuisine is not traditionally gluten-free, as soy sauce and wheat flour are common ingredients. However, many Chinese restaurants offer gluten-free options for those with Celiac disease or gluten sensitivities. Here are some tips for ordering gluten-free in a Chinese restaurant:

1. Inform your server of your dietary restriction. Make sure to let your server know that you are gluten-free and need to avoid any dishes that contain gluten.

2. Choose dishes that are naturally gluten-free. Many traditional Chinese dishes are gluten-free, such as steamed fish, roasted meats, and vegetable dishes.

3. Ask about the ingredients in specific dishes. If you are not sure whether a particular dish is gluten-free, ask your server about the ingredients.

4. Avoid dishes that contain soy sauce or wheat flour. Soy sauce and wheat flour are common thickening agents in Chinese cooking, so they should be avoided if you are gluten-free.

5. Request that your food be cooked in a dedicated gluten-free wok. This will help to prevent your food from coming into contact with gluten-containing ingredients.

6. Double-check your order before eating. Before you start eating, make sure that your order is correct and that it does not contain any gluten-containing ingredients.

Here are some specific gluten-free dishes that you can order in a Chinese restaurant:

* Steamed fish

* Roasted meats (such as chicken, duck, and pork)

* Vegetable dishes (such as stir-fried vegetables, steamed vegetables, and vegetable dumplings)

* Gluten-free soups (such as wonton soup and egg drop soup)

* Rice dishes (such as fried rice and plain rice)

* Gluten-free noodles (such as rice noodles and bean thread noodles)

Tips for Avoiding Gluten Cross-Contamination

* Ask your server to use a clean wok and utensils to cook your food.

* Avoid dishes that are cooked in the same wok as gluten-containing dishes.

* Be wary of sauces and condiments that may contain gluten.

* If you are unsure about whether a dish is gluten-free, it is best to avoid it.
