Gluten Free Chippy Non-Brewed Condiment (Malt Vinegar Flavour) 315ml

Product Information

When selecting vinegars for your gluten-free diet, it’s crucial to read labels carefully and look for certifications or statements indicating that the product is gluten-free. Tiffany Janes, another great advocate for the celiac community, wrote an insightful article on the Blue Horizon Seafood Bites and you can read that here. While this might seem like a negative step, it is to try and improve clarity for our community and help support greater choice in the long run. In that case, the product should be avoided unless the manufacturer can confirm it is not malt vinegar. A very few people who are extremely sensitive to trace gluten seem to react to almost all vinegar, including the ones listed above as safe.

I also encourage reading that article because Tiffany touched on some things that I think every gluten-free person needs to consider more often. It may surprise you, but vinegar can often used for cleaning, hair conditioning, skin care, pet care and much more!We hope this post has helped to shed some light on the issues surrounding barley malt extract and barley malt vinegar. Appreciate your thoughtfulness in designing a gluten free malt vinegar, but let me clarify the difference between gluten free and celiac safe. The exception to this rule is malt vinegar, which is not distilled, and therefore is not safe to consume. This is the only vinegar that everyone agrees is strictly off-limits on the gluten-free diet—it's made from barley-based ale that's not distilled, so it definitely contains gluten. While vinegar is generally considered gluten-free, a few types may contain traces of gluten due to the fermentation process.

Glazes, marinades and brines – Use malt vinegar for brining meat, making marinades and glazing roasts to add a sweeter, nutty flavour. This is a clear, white vinegar, also known as spirit vinegar, made by distilling ordinary malt vinegar to produce a very strong, colourless liquid high in acetic acid. However, it has around 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten or less, which is generally considered to be suitable for people who are gluten intolerant or suffer from celiac disease.The milder, sweet flavour balances perfectly with the saltiness of the food, with the acid cutting gently through the crispy, fried texture. For instance when I drank I avoided gluten spirits like whisky, but Coeliac UK say that the distillation process renders them safe also.
