Are cures and seasonings gluten free??

[Lyndsay]

Hi all,

Just wondering if you know whether the salami cures and seasonings are gluten free or not?? I think the cures might be okay, but don't know what's in the seasonings so can't tell. Please let me know your thoughts, and if all okay, will be an excellent albeit unexpected Christmas gift for my husband.

Thanks
Lyndsay

First of all welcome to the forum.

As to your question I think that Franco should answer that as he is the one mixing them/or having them mixed. My best guess is they are ok, though with all of the celiacs out there it certainly is a point. For complete sausage mixes you will find that they generally contain soya flour and wheat, though gluten free ones are available.

hope that this is of some use to you

kind regards

I would not have thought that a salami seasoning has any wheat in it - but check with Franco to be sure.

Alot of the sausage mixes do contain rusk - which is wheat based. To be honest, just mix your own - that's half the joy of making sausage!

Lyndsay has a valid question, as in some commercial salami recipes it is common practice to add as a binder; non fat dried milk (NFDM), soy protein concentrate or wheat flour
