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!

      In the study linked above, the little girl switched to a gluten free diet and gained enough weight that that fat pad was replenished and surgery was not needed.   Here's the full article link... Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6476019/

      Hello, @Jordan Carlson, So glad you're feeling better.   Tecta is a proton pump inhibitor.  PPI's also interfere with the production of the intrinsic factor needed to absorb Vitamin B12.  Increasing the amount of B12 you supplement has helped overcome the lack of intrinsic factor needed to absorb B12. Proton pump inhibitors also reduce the production of digestive juices (stomach acids).  This results in foods not being digested thoroughly.  If foods are not digested sufficiently, the vitamins and other nutrients aren't released from the food, and the body cannot absorb them.  This sets up a vicious cycle. Acid reflux and Gerd are actually symptoms of producing too little stomach acid.  Insufficient stomach acid production is seen with Thiamine and Niacin deficiencies.  PPI's like Tecta also block the transporters that pull Thiamine into cells, preventing absorption of thiamine.  Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are difficulty swallowing, gagging, problems with food texture, dysphagia. Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are symptoms of ADHD and anxiety.  Vyvanse also blocks thiamine transporters contributing further to Thiamine deficiency.  Pristiq has been shown to work better if thiamine is supplemented at the same time because thiamine is needed to make serotonin.  Doctors don't recognize anxiety and depression and adult onset ADHD as early symptoms of Thiamine deficiency. Stomach acid is needed to digest Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in fruits and vegetables.  Ascorbic acid left undigested can cause intestinal upsets, anxiety, and heart palpitations.   Yes, a child can be born with nutritional deficiencies if the parents were deficient.  Parents who are thiamine deficient have offspring with fewer thiamine transporters on cell surfaces, making thiamine deficiency easier to develop in the children.  A person can struggle along for years with subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  Been here, done this.  Please consider supplementing with Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) which helps immensely with dysphagia and neurological symptoms like anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms.  Benfotiamine helps with improving intestinal health.  A B Complex and NeuroMag (a magnesium supplement), and Vitamin D are needed also.

      @pothosqueen, Welcome to the tribe! You'll want to get checked for nutritional deficiencies and start on supplementation of B vitamins, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1.   There's some scientific evidence that the fat pad that buffers the aorta which disappears in SMA is caused by deficiency in Thiamine.   In Thiamine deficiency, the body burns its stored fat as a source of fuel.  That fat pad between the aorta and digestive system gets used as fuel, too. Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test to look for thiamine deficiency.  Correction of thiamine deficiency can help restore that fat pad.   Best wishes for your recovery!   Interesting Reading: Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31089433/#:~:text=Affiliations,tissue and results in SMAS.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
