In terms of catering services Sydney, different dietary requirement are there and there might be a case, where people would ask for gluten-free food or catering. 

The good thing is that catering agencies these days are fully equipped with everything they need for organising gluten-free meal. 

Here in this post, let us take a look at a few tips and tricks that will help you organise a perfect and unforgettable gluten free catering. 

PLANNING -

Before deciding about the type of catering, it is important for the event organiser to research a bit about the dietary needs of all the guests. Yes, this sounds tough, but getting an overview of the same is not going to be tough at all. 

Often people commit this mistake of increasing the number of dishes thinking that those having dietary specifications can adjust for at least one meal. In most cases this happens, but certainly not with the people having allergies to gluten. 

They have such a high level of allergy to gluten they can’t even tolerate one meal that has gluten in it. In fact, their food can’t even be prepared in the utensil in which gluten-based food was prepared earlier. 

Therefore, as an event organiser, it is very important that you carefully consider those having allergy to gluten ad make arrangements to prepare their food items totally separately, right from the scratch. 

SAFETY -

Safety and carefulness are the two most important prerequisites in terms of preparing gluten free food and the catering agency chosen by you should be fully aware of this. They should try and arrange the best catering services using all their skills, expertise and experience along with full focus on the method of preparation. They should try and avoid cross-contamination of food at any cost because this is a very common occurrence. 

SOME EXAMPLES OF CROSS CONTAMINATION INCLUDE:

  • Cooking gluten free pasta and traditional pasta separately, but in the same pot without washing it between uses
  • Using the same utensils to serve food with and without gluten

Other than this couple of examples, experts also recommend separating the gluten-free food from those that might contain gluten or even have traces of the same. This will ensure that no cross contamination occurs to annoy the guests or ruin their dining experience.
