At the Greek restaurant where I work, I noticed that some of the patrons come in and ask about which dishes are gluten free dishes. The restaurant does a great job accommodating these customers, but I am curious. What do Gluten Free Greeks do at home? How do they navigate?
Here are some things the restaurant does:
- Using gluten free flour in béchamel (and we have two versions, one with gluten and one without). Then, when people order the likes of moussaka or even pastitsio, it is assembled in a "made to order" fashion in smaller portion to accommodate the gluten free people
- We have a pizza and the customer can order gluten free crust
- We offer gluten free bread - our GF flatbread is popular
- We use GF pasta (orzo, etc) for our gluten free customers
- We offer some rice dishes
But what about for the home cook?
