I eat only gluten free. Products made from which ingredients need to be Bishul Yisroel?

 

As a general rule, any food that is not eaten raw and is an important food (“fitting to be on a king’s table”) must be Bishul Yisroel when cooked.

This would include many gluten-free foods, including rice, fish, meat and more.

If you have a question regarding a specific food, you can reply with the information.

 

Follow-up Question:

  • Corn?
  • Beans?
  • Flax?
  • Cauliflower?
  • Broccoli?
  • Plantains?

 

Answer:

Many of the ingredients are often made into health bars or the like. For more information on that, see here (the link also includes a number of more links on this subject):

If the food is only added as a secondary ingredient, see here:

Does this packaged crispy fried onions need to be Bishul / Pas Yisroel ? It has wheat flour in the ingredients.

 

Corn: See here:

Do corn chips need to be Bishul Yisroel?

Beans: See here:

Do chickpeas and beans need to be Bishul Yisroel? In other words, can I buy canned chickpeas or beans with just a Hechsher on them?

 

Flax: Does not need to be Bishul Yisroel, as it is eaten raw.

Cauliflower: Does not need to be Bishul Yisroel, as it is eaten raw.

Broccoli: Same as above, cauliflower.

Plantains: It’s not eaten raw, might be a bishul akum issue.
