If they’re a member of the “AFC” project<\/strong>, you can have gluten-free biscuits<\/strong> for breakfast, and you can eat pizza or an ice cream with a wafer<\/strong> knowing that they were made with gluten-free<\/strong> raw materials and were prepared without any contamination.<\/p>\n

Sicilian cuisine meets these needs. Traditional products which are gluten-free include the renowned tuna from Favignana<\/a>, a beautiful island near Trapani<\/a>. The island has plenty of high-quality businesses and accommodation facilities, many of which provide for coeliac clients.<\/p>\n

One excellent idea is to have a homemade<\/a> granita<\/strong> for breakfast, one Sicily’s best-known products. You can again check that the establishment you’ve chosen is signed up to the \u201cAFC\u201d project<\/strong>, in order to be sure that the equipment used has not been contaminated.<\/p>\n

There are good restaurants offering information on gluten-free cuisine all over the island: from the large cities to the small villages, where the restaurants are often located on the seashore.<\/p>\n

If you’re a fan of street food<\/a> don’t worry: there are numerous artisan establishments which have signed up to the AFC project, especially in Palermo<\/a>. Here you can savour panelle e crocch\u00e8<\/a>, the local chickpea fritters and potato croquettes.<\/p>\n

Sicilian cuisine is rich in \u201cnaturally\u201d gluten-free dishes<\/strong>, such as fish <\/strong>and seafood<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
