Fresh pasta shouldn’t be a luxury — it should be a human right. As part of the healthy Mediterranean diet, pasta is meant to be celebrated and enjoyed. But what about those of us who can’t eat gluten due to celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity? There is a serious gluten-free foods deficiency happening in some parts of the United States right now (especially in Memphis, Tennessee — where I live), which is something I’d like to see corrected. Honestly, it’s as though people decided you aren’t eating gluten just to annoy them or something. So, what do you do when nobody gives you what you want? You make the thing you want while cussing those insensitive gluten-eaters!

I have a family history of autoimmunity, as well as carrying a gene mutation that makes me likely to develop celiac disease.
