Isn't Lea & Perrins!

I just checked both Lea & Perrins and Homebrand bottles. Neither would appear to contain gluten.

There is nothing Original about the, Le & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce, you buy these days. Most sites I looked at, said the Original recipe, is gluten free.You would hope it is still gluten free, all the same.

Gluten is found in flour products.

coolkat11, Oct 14, 8:20am
Ive checked le and perrins and it has gluten in it.I dont have it but maybe its the 150c colouring if you are reading the ingreds and it doesnt say any wheatproducts.I am new to going gluten free (my 7 yr old is celiac) and have found out that 150c is a hidden gluten

Thank you pickles7.Have just written the recipe down.

pickles7, Oct 14, 8:31am
150c! could it be a, thickening agent, as well.coolkat11 . Everything we buy these days need to be looked at very carefully as far as "special diets go" in particular. The consequences are huge, for those on special diets. Often a thickening agent will creep in to cut the costs of reducing the ingredients. PROFIT being lost, in the steam.

Why don't you ask them!According to the website though it is still gluten free and having checked the ingredients on the website there does not appear to be any hidden gluten

The Lea & Perrins website says its gluten free - I think by "original" they simply mean that Lea & Perrins were the original makers of Worcestershire Sauce, probably in Worcester

pickles7, Oct 14, 12:12pm
They were not the original makers at all.sarahb5.they were hired to try and sort out what, made up the Original sauce recipe.

sarahb5, Oct 14, 12:23pm
Which was an Indian recipe - so that makes them the original makers of "Worcestershire" sauce because its nowhere near Bengal and probably nothing like the sauce sampled there originally which inspired Worcestershire sauce

I guess it doesn't matter what you read on the net, it is up to us, the consumer, to read every label. So often things you find on the net are loaded 10 or more years, ago.

Here's the food additives code breaker for anyone interested. Incidentally, I can't see a 150c there, but 150 is caramel, that would be used to darken the Worcestershire Sauce.
