There’s more to gluten-free meal preparation than buying gluten-free pasta. Every pot, pan, tool or surface the food touches needs to be free from gluten, as do all of the ingredients that go into the dish. From the line cook to the server, everyone has a hand in keeping gluten-free customers safe.
