Why Indian Cuisine Makes Going Gluten-Free Easy
- Naturally Wheat-Free Staples
Lentils, basmati rice, chickpeas, and vegetables are already the backbone of Indian cooking. - High-Heat Tandoor Techniques
Rice-flour rotis puff beautifully at 450 °C, so you don’t miss chewy naan. - Spice-Boosted Satisfaction
Cumin, turmeric, and ginger add depth, ensuring “health food” never tastes bland.
