Not as such, Gluten is a protein that is found in wheat and spelt. BUT yeast (a fungus) is frequently cultured in sugar solutions made from wheat and may therefore be contaminated with Gluten from the wheat.

No. That doesn't mean that commercial yeast won't have gluten in it. Yeast primarily comes from beer breweries, and there's no gluten in rice. However, malted barley has gluten in it.

Sourdough uses yeast from the air, and if you maintain your sourdough culture with gluten-free ingredients, it will be a source of fresh gluten-free yeast.

Wheat bread has yeast to raise the bread and cause the little holes. Quick breads have baking soda or baking powder to raise the bread. An example of this would be banana bread. So if the bread is mixed and put into the oven without letting it rise, it is a quick bread and has no yeast.

Yeast does not have gluten but the media it grows in may. Check the label for substances like wheat, starch, hydrolyzed protein, etc.

No, gluten-free diets are void of gluten which is found in wheat. All normal wheat products like bread, cakes, biscuits etc. must be excluded unless they specifically say 'gluten free.'

Is balsamic vinegar gluten free?

Yup, gluten free. Sometimes the yeast starters that ferment other types of vinegar are made with malted barley (contains gluten) but not any apple ciders. They add dried yeast to ferment the sugars from the apple juice, then the acetobacter is added to convert the alcohol into acedic acid (vinegar). Enjoy it!


Is there yeast or gluten in a smirnoff ice?

Yes. Most liquor is a wheat, rye, corn, rice. Smirnoff is corn based and corn is gluten free, but since it is "ice" it may add a gluten source to the liquor . The yeast in liquor ferments the mash and is a fungus so it doesn't contribute to gluten. I am on a gluten free diet and personally I wouldn't drink since it does change the chemical makeup in your body. Read the bottle carefully or call the company to be sure.
