I have never used tamari before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gluten-free-korean-food#post-1071706 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 14:06:12 +0000 BunnyDragon 1071706@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank you ladies for your suggestions. I think I will make a batch of homemade marinade to be safe. I am stressing about one meal and this guy has to careful about everything he eats. So sad. He brings his own food to parties and such, but I want him to be able to eat some korean food. Cuz you all know, korean food is such a treat! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gluten-free-korean-food#post-1070256 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 11:47:39 +0000 MrsH 1070256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Freckles: my comment was with respect to all the comments that soy sauce was a no no - which would be good for the OP to know if she was making her own marinade as suggested.</p> <p>I was not commenting on using a pre-made marinade that has soy sauce in it.</p> <p>For what it is worth I am celiac and I wouldn't buy a pre made marinade with "soy sauce" listed as an ingredient unless the product specifically stated it was gluten free. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gluten-free-korean-food#post-1069900 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 09:50:28 +0000 Freckles 1069900@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsH: The OP said that she was buying premade galbi marinade. Can she guarantee that the soy sauce in the marinade is wheat-free? Naturally-fermented soy sauce meet the standards to be qualified as gluten-free (or close to it), and Kikkoman offers it. If i were preparing something for a celiac friend, i would not buy a prepared marinade where i can't account for the ingredients. That's just me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gluten-free-korean-food#post-1069740 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 08:48:19 +0000 butterbean 1069740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>tamari has gluten free soy sauce...just gotta make sure the bottle says gluten free :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gluten-free-korean-food#post-1069711 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 08:36:25 +0000 blackbird 1069711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>bulgolgi can be made gluten free, too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gluten-free-korean-food#post-1069691 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 08:26:44 +0000 MrsH 1069691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I disagree with PP while lots of soy sauces have gluten/wheat in them. There are now soy sauces available that are glutenfree. Even Kikkoman who uses wheat in their bottled soy sauce just came out with glutenfree packets of soy sauce. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gluten-free-korean-food#post-1069435 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 06:11:40 +0000 Mrs.Someone 1069435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Make sure to carefully check anything you buy pre-packaged. Soy sauce is a no-no, but Tamari and Shoyu are fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gluten-free-korean-food#post-1069406 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 04:20:12 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1069406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>To add on to @Freckles: there's a pancake that's made of mung bean. I can't think of the name.</p> <p>But I think your original choices are excellent. Just substitute with Tamari. It could be a great time to play with a homemade marinade. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gluten-free-korean-food#post-1069362 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 01:15:30 +0000 Freckles 1069362@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The store bought marinade will have soy sauce in it, which has gluten. Could you make the marinade at home? When you make japchae (great gluten-free option), use tamari instead. </p> <p>How about pajeon? This girl (<a href="http://chowdivine.com/pajeon-korean-zucchini-scallion-pancakes" rel="nofollow">http://chowdivine.com/pajeon-korean-zucchini-scallion-pancakes</a>) used brown rice flour and glutinous rice flour. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gluten-free-korean-food#post-1069341 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 00:27:48 +0000 BunnyDragon 1069341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH is having his friends over next month for poker and we will be serving Korean food. One of his friends has a gluten and egg allergy and I want to make sure he can eat something. We plan to make kalbi (with store bought jar marinade) and jap chae. Will those be ok or should I make him something else? Can you name some Korean food that are gluten free? </p>
