Tips & Notes

Gluten-free recipe notes:

• Store-bought vegetable broth might contain flour or food-starch modified. Make your own broth at home with leftover veggies to be safe.
• Flour is commonly a thickener in cream corn, so canned versions are not GF. Try our Gluten-Free Creamed Corn recipe.
• Lea & Perrins Original Worcestershire Sauce is naturally gluten free, according to the manufacturer.
