Gluten is a protein found in wheat, rye, barley, and oats. A glutamate is a salt of glutamic acid, an amino acid found in many proteins (not just gluten, and as far as I'm aware gluten does not contain an unusual abundance of glutamic acid).
The difference between potassium and potassium glutamate is how they are bound as a chemical. Potassium is bonded with chloride while potassium glutamate is bound with gluconate.
Glutamic acid is found in most foods but very abundantly in gluten grains (wheat, barley, rye), soy/legumes/peanuts, dairy products, nuts, seeds, meats and the gluten-grain substitutes (quinoa, amaranth, tapioca as well as the non-gluten grains millet, flax and sorghum).
I have no idea what "mono sodium gluten" is. Do you mean monosodium glutamate? That's a compound, not a mixture.
no
It contains monosodium glutamate. So, no. You are wrong. Monosodium glutamate is not derived from wheat. Its not good for you by any means but it is safe from a celiac standpoint. Hidden Valley original Ranch is safe. Hidden Valley is a company that claims that it will always list gluten ingredients on its products.
There is not much difference in taste between gluten-free and regular recipes (assuming your recipes are good); in my experience, I've found gluten-free food to taste even better than their gluten counterparts!
Gluten-free bread can have no wheat flour in it - nor any other wheat products. Therefore, a gluten-free baker ONLY uses substitutes for wheat products.
There really isn't a difference in gluten and wheat because gluten is something inside of wheat Gluten is a protein in the wheat also found in barley, spelt, etc. But, what most seem to be allergic to is the process that garners the gluten from the wheat and using it in many other food products. This process changes the food and the way it reacts in our system
Ground rice is from the rice grain. Semolina is from the wheat grain. Semolina is the one that has gluten.
No. Rye, wheat, oats and barley all contain gluten. Some one who is gluten free may describe themselves as not being able to eat wheat for simplicity. However, there is a difference between a gluten intollerance and a wheat intollerance. If you are cooking for someone with this dietary requirement you should always confirm exactly what to avoid.
Glutamate is the primary excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. It enhances the transmission of signals between neurons by promoting the depolarization of postsynaptic neurons.
Monosodium glutamate is not harmful. Monosodium glutamate is put in most foods.
