Creamy Mushroom Gravy

By

Allergen Free Mushroom Gravy Recipe

free from gluten and the top 8 food allergens

Creamy mushroom gravy is not only the perfect partner for biscuits, but pairs well with everything from smashed potatoes and meatloaf-your-way, to pasta and casseroles.

Mushrooms give this gravy a meaty texture that is packed with umami, and with a touch of toasted fennel seeds, what a match for sausage gravy!

See how easy it is to make this rich, satisfying gravy without the classic veal stock, gluten or dairy.

It’s so incredible, you’ll be tempted to skip right to the gravy and make it the main meal.

Melange of Artichokes, Beans and Kale

By

Your Allergy Chefs Melanage Of Artichokes Beans And Kale Recipe

free from gluten and the top 8 food allergens

This mélange of artichokes, beans and kale will electrify your taste buds.

Rather than calling it a soup or stew, we like mélange. After all, it’s not really a soup, but a healthy medley of beans and vegetables served with a super sauce!

This recipe begins with béchamel, a classic mother sauce made with milk, heavy cream, butter and wheat flour. To make it allergy-friendly and vegan, we use rice milk, Earth Balance and sweet white rice flour, adding a touch of Dijon style mustard to create the small sauce called… mustard sauce.

Fit for a fine dining restaurant, yet easy to make at home…You’re gonna love it!

Redefining the Mother Sauces

By

Auguste Escoffier

For food lovers and chefs alike, knowing the five mother sauces is a basic skill that opens a world of culinary possibilities. Béchamel, Espagnole, Hollandaise, Tomato and Velouté are the five mother sauces that serve as the starting point for a myriad of dishes.

Two weeks ago, we did a presentation at the American Culinary Federation’s Chef Connect in Newport Beach, California. Our session was titled “Redefining the Mother Sauces”.

We had a full house of eager chefs that wanted to learn more about cooking for their guests with food allergies and special diets. Chef after chef talked about the ever-growing requests from their customers for allergy-friendly and plant-based dishes.

We are excited to share over the next several weeks, our take on the mother sauces made allergy-friendly, gluten-free and vegan.

Hibiscus Tea

Refined Sugar Free Hibiscus Tea Recipe

You may know hibiscus tea as agua de jamaica. My weekly routine for years included several stops at a favorite Mexican restaurant in Portland to get my fix of this nourishing drink.

Hibiscus tea is enjoyed around the world and is one of the healthiest drinks imaginable. We found ourselves asking, what health benefits doesn’t it offer?

Refined sugars are often used to sweeten hibiscus tea. Eliminating those sugars and offering several healthier substitutions makes it even better!
