Glutening

[boroboy77]

hi guys,

lets say youre roasting vegetables in an oven. and lets say same oven was used a week ago to cook pastry or something... is there a risk of my roast veg picking up gluten from the previous week's cooking? hope you can see where im coming from...

also, do people find that exercise helps flush out whatever gunk is in there? i run every second day and find my skin has improved vastly, glowing almost!

Unless you've cooked both the pastry and the vegetables directly on the grill (which of course you don't), you should be safe.

For as much as I tell my family that gluten is lurking about, just waiting to jump onto my poor unsuspecting gluten-free stuff, the reality is it doesn't. Your veggies would have to contact the same surface as the pastries did for any CC to occur.

Of course, you do need to be careful when actually making the pastries or anything with flour, that's when the incidence of airborne contamination is most high, due to the messy nature of flour. Counter tops are more likely areas for CC than the oven itself.God knows where it floats off to and lies in wait .
