Gluten-Free Cooking Demo, putting the sides and bread back on the menu
Sunday March 2nd,  11-11:45 am in the Culinary Demo Theater show floor #2368
Today most restaurants that are offering gluten-free options do so by removing some of the carbs, such as bread, pasta, breadcrumbs, along with sides and toppings from their existing menu items.  Dining out is meant to be an experience, and every customer should leave a restaurant feeling like they want to come back.

During this demonstration learn simple tricks to be able to offer gluten-free diners an exceptional dining experience without overwhelming your staff, or risking possible cross contamination.

Join Marlisa Brown, registered dietitian, chef and author of “Gluten-Free, Hassle-Free” and “Easy, Gluten-Free”  along with certified executive chef Chris Singlemann, as they demonstrate and sample easy ways to put the starch and sides back on the table for your gluten-free customers.


Sunday, March 3rd 3:00 – 4:00 PM –
Gluten-Free Labeling Laws and Getting your Restaurant Certified Gluten-Free,
(what is changing and what the future may hold)

As of August 2013 the FDA has mandated what can be labeled gluten-free and what cannot. Companies who list a product as being gluten-free must comply with the FDA ruling by August 2014 or they can be sited as misbranding their product.

What impact could this mean to manufacturers and restaurants?  What about certifying your gluten-free options on your menus, what is involved, what are the certifying agencies, and what are the differences between them?  And what about manufacturers that offer free training for bringing in their gluten-free products, what are some options, how can you get help?  This program will cover the newest FDA labeling laws, will examine the different types of gluten-free restaurant certifications, and discuss some ways to get gluten-free training for your establishment.
