Worcestershire Sauce

Recommended Posts

purple Community Regular

I tried this gluten-free worcestershire sauce today. It's gluten-free and vegan too. I think its a good sub.

My oldest dd was asking for chex party mix but my youngest is vegan so I tried something new. BTW, Kix works great to sub pretzels or rice crackers.

Here is another but I haven't tried it:

It might taste more original b/c it has molasses and cloves.

Happy crunching! :P

edit: I use BRAGG'S LIQUID AMINOS for the soy sauce and it's gluten-free.

soy sauce is -not- necessarily gluten free -- please be careful with that Worcestershire recipe!

oops....sorry, I am so used to using Bragg's liquid aminos(gluten-free) that I don't even think of buying a gluten-free soy sauce. :ph34r:

Oh Wonka, say it isn't so!!!!!! :o:(

I wanted to add a bit of kick to one of the meals I have usually used Braggs in. I went to the Lea & Perrins web site and they very clearly stated it was gluten-free. Do you mean to tell me they formulate it different her in Canada & don't direct us to the proper info?

Boy am I going to have a major conversation with their answer desk tomorrow.

Now I have 60 shepherds pie meals that I have to retract the gluten-free status on. :angry:

sure glad I saw this before I accidently put them in the hands of someone who has a gluten problem

Lea & Perrins is only gluten-free in the US. I believe they use malt vinegar outside the US.

Frustrating, isn't it ? I think the Canadian M&M candies are screwed up, too, but the American ones are okay, so far.

Sorry doodle, it is so Open Original Shared Link click on ingedients at the bottom and you'll see the first ingredient is malt vinegar (from barley).

I have found a gluten free Worcestershire sauce recently, actually two. Heinz has a gluten free version (they funnily also do Lea and Perrins), I contacted them to confirm this, and the other one I found is The Wizard's organic wheat-free vegan Worcestershire sauce www.edwardandsons.com

what a shame! it's so easy to avoid an ingredient in the recipe that so many people could react to, and yet they keep it. that is the real kicker about so many products!

Oh, for crying out loud, do I feel DDUUHHMM. I looked right at malt vinegar (barley) but b/c I'm still so green at this I totally missed it.

Thanks W.

I will check out Heinz around here. Not sure if I have ever seen the other one but will look into it as well.

If the store you regularly shop at has only the Lea and Perrins, ask them to order in the Heinz for you. Because Heinz distributes both, that should be doable for the store.

I have never seen regular Kix that did not contain oat flour, which would make it not gluten-free. Does it have a different formulation where you live? We have tried the Honey Kix that do not contain gluten ingredients. Is that what you are using?

There is a new formulation of gluten-free Kix but it does not say gluten-free on the box. The picture on the box is different, it's of an ear of corn. Our store had the new kind once but now only the old oat kind. The new kind does not have oat flour. I will try to post the link if I can find it.

I found it!

I found an old bottle of NON-gluten-free Heinz in my fridge today and it HAS wheat in it, so be sure to get the right formulation...I can toss it...yay! One less thing in my fridge. I use L&P, since last summer.

Today I talked to 1-800-841-1256, the company that handles French's products. The Worcestershire Sauce is gluten free, and I am being emailed a list of all gluten-free French's products. The rep asked for the bar code on my particular bottle of sauce and confirmed that that particular batch is gluten free. FYI, it is not a new bottle. It has been in my frig for months. I think it would be safe to say that any you have purchased recently would be gluten free.

Lea & Perrins in Canada is NOT gluten free. In the US it IS gluten free....as janetw mentioned, but it deserves another shout out.

I forget sometimes also, that we have an international Forum. Campbell's Canada and Campbell"s US is another example of differing gluten free products.

Also in the U.S. Lea & Perrins is soy free as well. Just got validation from the company the other day. :)

I've looked at Bragg's so many times in the store. I've picked it up and put it back because I wasn't sure how it tasted. Then my local health food store had sushi tasting with Bragg's. Now I don't know what to do with the two bottles of soy sauce I have because Bragg's is much better. Love the stuff.

I called Heinz the other day about their worst. sauce (which is gluten-free), and they emailed me a list of all their gluten-free products that same day (which included Ore-Ida and Smart Ones items.) Much easier than making it!

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
    • trents
      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.

      After the birth of my daughter nearly 6 years ago, my stools changed. They became thin if they happened to be solid (which was rare) but most of the time it was Bristol #6 (very loose and 6-8x a day). I was on various medications and put it down to that. A few years later I went on this strict "fruit and meat" diet where I just ate meat, fruit, and squash vegetables. I noticed my stools were suddenly formed, if a bit narrow. I knew then that the diarrhea was probably food related not medication related. I tried following the fodmap diet but honestly it was just too complicated, I just lived with pooping 8x a day and wondering how I'd ever get and keep a job once my children were in school.  This past December I got my yearly bloodwork and my triglycerides were high. I looked into Dr. William Davis (wheat belly author) and he recommended going off wheat and other grains. This is the first time in my life I was reading labels to make sure there was no wheat. Within 2 weeks, not only were my stools formed and firm but I was only pooping twice a day, beautiful formed Bristol #4.  Dr. Davis allows some legumes, so I went ahead and added red lentils and beans. Nervous that the diarrhea would come back if I had IBS-D. Not only did it not come back, it just made my stools even bigger and beautiful. Still formed just with a lot more width and bulk. I've also been eating a lot of plant food like tofu, mushrooms, bell peppers, hummus etc which I thought was the cause of my diarrhea before and still, my stools are formed. In January I ran a genetics test because I knew you had to have the genes for celiac. The report came back with  DQ 2.2 plus other markers that I guess are necessary in order for it to be possible to have celiac. Apparently DQ 2.2 is the "rarer" kind but based on my report it's genetically possible for me to have celiac.  I know the next step is to bring gluten back so I can get testing but I am just not wanting to do that. After suffering with diarrhea for years I can't bring myself to do it right now. So that is where I am!
