Is Lasagna Gluten Free?

Is Lasagna Gluten Free?

Traditional lasagna is not gluten-free as it typically contains pasta sheets made from wheat flour, which contains gluten. However, gluten-free lasagna can be made using alternative pasta sheets made from gluten-free flours (such as rice or corn flour) or by substituting the pasta layers with vegetables like zucchini or eggplant.

What is Tolerase® G?

A new Approach for People with Gluten Sensitivity:
Explore the Science and Benefits of Tolerase® G.

 

Relief from Gluten Sensitivity

In the fight against gluten, there is a unique supplement that stands out: Little Helpers anti-gluten pills with 100% Tolerase® G.

This specific enzyme, Tolerase® G, a patented endopeptidase specific for proline, was developed by  Royal DSM  and has been scientifically proven to be effective in breaking down gluten residues​ ( 1) ​. Furthermore, research has shown that Aspergillus niger prolyl endoprotease (AN-PEP), an enzyme closely related to Tolerase® G, can break down gluten so effectively that it barely reaches the duodenum, potentially eliminating gluten toxicity​ ( 2) ( ​​3 ) ​.

On this page we explain why we are so enthusiastic about this supplement, supported by scientific research.

What is Gluten?

Gluten is a group of proteins found primarily in grains such as wheat, barley, and rye. These complex proteins give shape, strength, and texture to bread and other grain products. However, gluten is difficult to digest because it is rich in proline, a non-essential amino acid. This is why about 13% of the world’s population is sensitive to gluten in their diet​ (1)​.

How Tolerase® G Works

It is important to note that Tolerase G is designed to have optimal activity in the difficult conditions of the stomach. Its effectiveness on the digestion of gluten in the stomach and duodenum has been scientifically proven ( 1 ).

Studies have shown that a newly identified prolyl endoprotease derived from Aspergillus niger can effectively break down gluten proteins. This enzyme works optimally at a pH of 4–5, remains stable at pH 2, and is completely resistant to digestion by pepsin ( 2 ). Furthermore, research has shown that Aspergillus niger prolyl endoprotease (AN-PEP) accelerates the breakdown of gluten in the stomach so much that very little gluten reaches the duodenum ( 3 ). This suggests that co-administration of AN-PEP with a meal containing gluten could potentially eliminate gluten toxicity, allowing people to (occasionally) abandon their strict gluten-free diet ( 3 ).

Gluten Free Alternatives
Eggplant Lasagna: Sliced eggplant serves as the pasta substitute, offering a meaty texture and rich flavor. It absorbs sauces well and provides a good source of fiber and antioxidants.
Polenta Lasagna: Pre-cooked polenta is sliced and used in place of pasta sheets. This corn-based alternative provides a unique texture and subtle sweetness to the dish while remaining gluten-free.
Cauliflower Lasagna: Thin slices of cauliflower or a cauliflower "sheet" made from riced cauliflower replace pasta layers. This low-carb option adds a mild flavor and boosts the dish's vegetable content.
Gluten-free Pasta Lasagna: Made from alternative flours such as rice, corn, or a blend of gluten-free grains, these specially formulated lasagna noodles closely mimic traditional wheat pasta in texture and taste.

Frequently
Asked Questions

Does lasagna contain gluten?
Traditional lasagna typically contains gluten. The pasta sheets used in lasagna are usually made from wheat flour, which contains gluten. Additionally, the béchamel sauce often used in lasagna recipes may contain flour as a thickening agent, which also adds gluten. However, gluten-free versions of lasagna can be made using alternative pasta sheets and thickeners.
Is lasagna made of flour?
Lasagna noodles, which are a key component of lasagna, are typically made from flour. Specifically, they are usually made from wheat flour, water, and sometimes eggs. However, the dish lasagna as a whole is not made primarily of flour. Lasagna is a layered pasta dish that includes other ingredients such as meat, cheese, and tomato sauce in addition to the pasta sheets.
What kind of pasta is gluten-free?
Several types of pasta are naturally gluten-free. These include pasta made from rice, corn, quinoa, lentils, or chickpeas. Many grocery stores now carry a variety of gluten-free pasta options to cater to those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivities. It's important to always check labels to ensure the pasta is certified gluten-free, as cross-contamination can occur during processing.
Is ricotta and mozzarella gluten-free?
Yes, both ricotta and mozzarella are naturally gluten-free cheeses. They are made from milk, salt, and enzymes, which do not contain gluten. These cheeses can be safely consumed by people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. However, it's always best to check labels for any added ingredients or potential cross-contamination during processing.
