Although with fewer diners, we do not give up the pleasure of conviviality. From New Food Gluten Free, course ideas suitable for everyone, even for celiacs, between taste, tradition and innovation
Christmas is approaching and it's time to get organized for the holidays! This year, in times of Covid, everything will be a little different, between prohibitions and distant loved ones that we will only be able to see through a screen, but it does not mean that we will have to give up the pleasure of the typically Italian conviviality of dinners and lunches, even if with fewer diners. To make the most of these festive days, the best solution is to cook some dishes at home, since when you prepare a meal with love, you also put a small part of yourself into it, making each dish tastier, but also ordering the remaining at restaurants, takeaways or at home. This will make it possible not only to support a category of workers, that of neighborhood shops, which is experiencing a period of profound difficulty, but also to lighten the work and stress of those who will be working in the kitchen.
After all , never like in this 2020, at Christmas the watchwords could be solidarity and sharing, for this reason, the suggestion is to prepare dishes that can be eaten by all the guests and, for example, also by those suffering from celiac disease. In this case it is essential that the foods are not contaminated by gluten, which is why we asked a company known and appreciated as New Food Gluten Free - a leading Roman gluten-free company, which has certified laboratories and uses genuine and high-quality raw materials. quality - some advice and some suggestions for a tasty, nutritious dish within the reach of all palates.
"When people with celiac disease are at the table with non-celiac people, they must always ask for confirmation that they can eat a certain thing , take care that foods with gluten are not too close to those without, and he/she finds himself looking at dishes that seem very inviting, but which he/she cannot taste – explain Stefano Paciaroni and Lorenzo Meloni, founders of New Food Gluten Free -. Christmas, however, is about sharing, light-heartedness and joy, which is why, if even just one diner has celiac disease, we all put gluten-free foods on the table, which does not mean without or with less taste, but simply accessible to everyone and equally good. !”.
Here, then, are some menu ideas for the next few days of celebration. “Choose simple and delicious recipes and dishes but with original and delicious culinary combinations. Dishes with fresh and fragrant ingredients with products of high nutritional quality, which will give your diners health, taste and well-being for a "gluten free" table that they will certainly not forget", underline Lorenzo and Stefano again.
Appetizers , first courses, second courses and desserts: what to focus on, then? As for appetizers, the founders of New Food Gluten Free suggest stuffed buttons, puff pastry pizzas, rustici, or blocks of aubergine or courgette parmigiane. While as regards the first courses, on the fateful evening of Christmas Eve, you could opt for gnocchi with clams or chickpea flour ravioli, without forgetting a good fried calamari and prawns in a corn crust. And what about Christmas lunch? “Here too, quality dishes, with a couple of tastings that can range from chickpea and pumpkin burger, to vegetable skewers to pumpkin meatballs. In short, you can wander around, playing well with the side dishes and accompanying creams", they add from New Food Gluten Free.
Which, then, is keen to underline: "Gluten-free egg pasta can become the true queen or a good risotto, a regal tortellini in broth, or even a vegan lasagna. Linguine with chestnut ragout, fig and burrata risotto, pasta with pistachio pesto. And pumpkin and taleggio risotto decorated with coffee powder. These are our proposals." Finally, room for desserts, between one game of cards and another.
Unmissable, in this sense, is a good artisanal panettone, so soft and leavened that even the most difficult palates give way, or a good tart with a light flavor made with natural ingredients: it is an excellent dessert for any occasion available and in many variations; chocolate, cherry, apricot or sour cherry. To close also a classic donut, delicious and fragrant, made with natural flours.
