What is Gluten? Gluten is a protein that’s found in certain grains like Wheat, Barley, Rye, etc. Among all these wheat is the most well-known gluten source.  It is the ingredient that provides elasticity and helps foods hold together to maintain their shape. Is Gluten bad for all? No. Not for all. Most people can tolerate gluten. People who are affected by gluten develop health conditions like Celiac disease, Grain allergy and Gluten Intolerance. The former is an autoimmune disorder that can cause severe digestive disorders and other health issues. The other two cause bloating, stomach pain, fatigue, etc. (Please google for symptoms of all these health issues) How could Gluten become suddenly threatening?

February 10th is celebrated as World Pulses Day. I am an avid fan of whole pulses / lentils. When I took a review of my posts so far, I realised I have as of today posted 22 recipes using whole pulses & legumes. I decided to compile all those recipes and make an eBook that you can download from my site.
