What is Gluten?

What is gluten?
If you are wondering, "what the heck is gluten". Well, this is what you want to be reading. Doing this project, I have learned lots about gluten. These are the things that really  caught my attention.

  • Gluten is in wheat, rye, oats, barley, and malt.
  • Gluten is the "glue" that holds foods together.
  • Gluten can not dissolve in water.
  • It comes from the endosperm, largest part of the seed, of the grain.

  1. Thanks for clearing up what gluten is! I just said to your mom tonight, "Gluten is just wheat, right?" and she said, "That and more." Now I know the more! Thanks!
