PARTY PREPARATION

Preparing food for a large party can bring some challenges particularly if you want delicious food that can be enjoyed by all.

There were several people we needed to cater for at a recent gathering who needed gluten free food.

These were some of the solutions we found.

Firstly finding a gluten free soy sauce helped a lot as the dipping sauces and marinades could be safe.

Secondly a few adjustments were made to recipes, using rice flour, cornflour or chick pea flour. Having herbs ready to hand in the garden, and chili paste (harissa see blog post on 11/14/11) already in the fridge made life that much easier.

Thanks to every one who complimented us on the food served. Of course the masses still took advantage of the meat dishes and the pastry based dishes that used eggs and dairy.

Here are a few of the recipes that people were asking for. Great everyone enjoyed themselves.
