    There are a lot of ways of getting into the field but it all starts with education, health, medical, food service and restaurant business. YOU really need to know a little of everything in order to successfully consult in these fields. Goodluck

    sure, let me know if you run into any trouble. I'm vegan and celiac but I trained as a chef in japan about 30 years ago. A lot of it is by taste and once your used to it you'll see that no 2 chefs use the same recipes, especially for the rice. good luck!

    the eel sauce is basically sweet teriyaki sometimes with rive vinegar or other sauce mixed in. the best sauces are made using raw brown sugar from okinawa. with rice once it s cooked you mix vinegar and sugar to get the taste you like. You can try rice vinegar instead of white vinegar. you do need ot be careful of powdered wasabi as it is not...

    Afraid you'll have to use real crab, the sticks and kameboko are all made with wheat except for one company in Hiroshima but I've never see those outside of Japan. You can usually buy frozen crab legs which when thawed are very nice. Have you practice making rice? its good to practice making it with the right combo of vinegar and sugar. what other...

    there are a few gluten-free tortillas on the markets. Maybe your store can get them or check the online mall here. I just found some mini ones today while traveling and visiting a small store. Only corn in them and soft, not hard tacos. also brown rice ones are easy to roll up. good luck

    thanks, they filmed so much more than they used I did talk about celiac a lot but they didnt get into it in the film. At least fruit is gluten free!

    I used the buzz word allergy which is much more of a pay attention trigger than celiac or cant eat. " Hi i have some food allergies AND celiac so I need to be very carful about what I can eat" and then go into the more detailed explanation. With some practice you'll be able to tell if they know what your talking about in the wy they respond to you. good...

    i think it takes some practice to determine the level the knowledge the server and the chef has at each restaurant you visit. Allergy, getting sick and "extremely ill" are phrases they take notice at. Sometimes you have to check for each item you want to order and the serve will have to go back and forth and ask the chef 3 or 4 times. Sometimes the server...

    I agree with kareng, you have to work it out before hand, otherwise the only thing you'll be able to eat is fruit and perhaps some meats.

    there are hundreds of great recipes online form India and some really fun cooking shows. Try check Zee TV and NDTV to work backwards to their shows. If you remind me when i get home in a week i can post a couple of mine which are vegan as well as gluten-free, like palak or saag. Dal Makani & aloo gobi. ken

    I lecture and teach in our culinary school and cannot go into the kitchen for 3 days after the bread class. It is a degree of sensitivity. There are some alternative health care schools affiliated with culinary schools and online schools where this would not be a problem. As it is now at our school, the bread class is at teh end of the day so others who...

    The one in Skokie Il. north of Chicago was pretty good with an extensive gluten-free menu. They showed me the part of the kitchen that was only for gluten-free prep. It's owned by the same company that owns Outback and Roys.

    Great, I'm looking forward ot hearing about your experiences. you can contact me if you need anything while here. Or ask for Dabney at Whole Foods in Kahala Mall which has a good selection of gluten-free too. take care

    Almost 10 years ago when I first came down with in my 50s, no one here knew what celiac was, including me. As a sometimes chef, i had to do a lot of learning. Later as president of the ACF chefs group on the big island we could develop some educational programs which I liked to think worked. I know DK and have been to one of his places, HIroshi which has...

    There are some great restaurants there that have gluten fee means. Still it's always good to call and let them know. 12th Ave. Grill and Town both in the kaimuki section of Honolulu are my favorites. In oriental restaurants the choices are often more limited except for steamed veggies -- just stay away from all the soy sauce. Chef mavro's is very good...

    thanks for posting

    dont use soy sauce, tell them ahead of time you have celiac. In China I suspect you'll have a lot of plain steamed vegetables and fruit. Have spent 30 years in and out of Japan and China but never on a group tour. The Tour people should work it out for you but you still have to double check at each location. Good luck

    i just spent last oct. in the philippines and Nov. in Japan. Have been to japan a few months a year for more than 30 years, 9 of them as celiac. I've never had a problem in Japan but then I know how to order and how to ask questions. I bilingual family should be able to help. You should also find and download the japanese celiac cards which explains...

    there are a lot of books out there. You might start with looking up saag, alo gobi, palak, dal makani. Also many groceries now carry tasty bites or other Indian microwaveable foods. they are not bad and will give you and idea of spices. good luck

    As a vegan for almost 5 years, vegetarian before that and celiac for 9 years, Im always working on new recipes. As mentioned below, a study of indian food is well worth the effort. I also like simple things like thin grilled veggies with different types of balsamic or other gluten-free sauces I make up. Indian foods with the spices are amazing, even just...
