Notes

Coeliac notes
Naturally gluten-free — cornstarch replaces the wheat flour usually used to crisp tofu.
Soy allergen: tofu is soy.
• Use certified GF cornstarch; check any pre-mixed seasoning for wheat.
• If deep-frying, use clean oil that has not fried breaded food (shared-fryer cross-contact). When a label is unclear, treat it as "not for me".
