Safely Savoring Uzbekistan: A Celiac's Guide to Dining Out

Uzbek cuisine is a tapestry of silk-road flavors—think aromatic plov (rice pilaf), succulent kebabs, and steaming manty dumplings. Yet for travelers with celiac disease, hidden gluten in wheat noodles, soy sauce marinades, or cross-contamination can turn a culinary adventure into a health hazard. Traditional menus rarely list ingredients, making gluten identification a risky guessing game.

This is where the mm food app becomes your essential dining companion. Before ordering lagman noodle soup or non (flatbread), simply:

1. Scan or input the Uzbek menu for instant translation to your native language
2. Set ‘Gluten-Free’ in dietary restrictions (or add custom needs like cross-contamination alerts)
3. Get AI-powered dish analysis—flagged safe picks and warnings about perils like soy sauce in marinades or wheat-thickened stews

Discover Uzbek gems that pass the gluten test: grilled lamb kebabs (shashlik), vegetable-rich achichuk salad, or gluten-free versions of plov if cooked without barley. Avoid wheat-based bombs like chuchvara dumplings or fried samsa pastry. With mm food’s real-time scanning, verify safety even for ambiguous dishes like moshxoʻrda (mung bean soup), ensuring no hidden flour thickeners.
