Many pizzerias have transformed their menu to include gluten-free dough and ingredients. Over the summer, we had the pleasure of tasting this unique pizza hot from the Marra Forni. Rice flour doesn’t contain any gluten and can, therefore, be substituted for the usual wheat flour. Potatoes are also a secret weapon in creating a dough that is crisp, light and chewy. Researchers have found that the amount of people with celiac disease has remained steady. Despite that, the number of people without the disease, but adhering to a gluten-free diet, increased! Find out more [here](http://greatist.com/eat/gluten-free-diet-what-is-it-really). Mintel forecasts the market value to reach $14.2 billion by next year. What makes this diet so appealing and will this trend fade? We don’t know but we have seen a rise in the need for organic and natural products like fresh fish, meat, vegetables, and fruit. Gluten-free coupled with an organic diet can only mean good things. For those that do suffer from the disease, we hope to continue to see food innovation on their behalf and you can count on [Marra Forni](https://marraforni.com/) to enhance every flavor. ![Chef flattens out dough for pizza](https://blog.marraforni.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/mg_0456_30016052847_o-min.jpg?width=965&height=644&name=mg_0456_30016052847_o-min.jpg)     [Marra Forni Marketing](https://blog.marraforni.com/blog/author/marra-forni-marketing) Jan 29, 2018 11:03:10 AM ##### 1 min. read [Marra Family](https://blog.marraforni.com/blog/tag/marra-family), [Industry News](https://blog.marraforni.com/blog/tag/industry-news) ## Read On #### Our New Metal Fab Dept One of our proudest accomplishments has been the development of our in-house Metal Fabrication... #### Amici Miei – Sardinian Cuisine *Roma Pizza from Amici Miei* #### Getting Results with Enzo Marra Creativity and ingenuity are two attributes that have been celebrated in Italy (especially in... ![White Oven](https://blog.marraforni.com/hs-fs/hubfs/White%20Oven.jpg?width=447&height=600&name=White%20Oven.jpg) #### **About Us** Marra Forni is the fastest-growing manufacturer of handcrafted brick ovens for commercial and residential use,  In addition, we offer complimentary food service equipment such as refrigerated prep tables, dough mixers, venting system components, exhaust fans, and cooking tools. ##### **Reach us via** [888.239.0575](tel:888.239.0575) [inquiries@marraforni.com](mailto:inquiries@marraforni.com) #### **Main Pages** - [Rotator Brick Oven](https://marraforni.com/discover-the-rotator-brick-oven/) - [Neapolitan](https://marraforni.com/neapolitan/) - [ELECTRO Series](https://marraforni.com/electric/) - [Pass-Thru](https://marraforni.com/due-bocche/) - [Enclosed Facade](https://marraforni.com/enclosed-facade/) - [MS Series](https://marraforni.com/metal-square/) - [Mobile Trailer](https://blog.marraforni.com/blog/Mobile%20Trailer) - [Prep Tables](https://marraforni.com/prep_tables/) - [Ventilation](https://marraforni.com/ventilation/) - [Marra Forni Mixers](https://marraforni.com/mixers/) - [Tools & Accessories](https://marraforni.com/pizza-oven-tools-and-accessories/) #### **Resources** - [Terms and Conditions Of Sales](https://marraforni.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Terms_And_Conditions_14_12_2016.pdf) - [Spec Sheets, CAD Blocks, Manuals](https://marraforni.com/resources/) - [Get A Quote](https://marraforni.com/connect/) - [FAQs](https://marraforni.com/faqs/) - [Pizza University](https://www.pizzauniversity.org/) - [Careers](https://recruiting.paylocity.com/Recruiting/Jobs/All/b512c9c7-dcab-4783-89dc-2759667b55b8) - [Request A Mock-Up](https://marraforni-21135555.hubspotpagebuilder.com/mock-up-request-form) - [Recurso español](https://marraforni.com/sp/) ###### **[Subscribe here!](https://share.hsforms.com/1M514MPi9TiaNhrJHThpxjgcl0ar)** [Follow us on Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/marraforni) [Follow us on LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/marraforni/) [Follow us on Twitter](https://twitter.com/MarraForni) [Follow us on Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/marraforni/) © 2024 All rights reserved. ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "author" : { "@type" : "Person", "name" : "Marra Forni Marketing", "url" : "https://blog.marraforni.com/blog/author/marra-forni-marketing" }, "dateModified" : "2022-08-05T11:27:00.139Z", "datePublished" : "2018-01-29T16:03:10.000Z", "headline" : "GLUTEN FREE IS TRENDING", "mainEntityOfPage" : { "@id" : "https://blog.marraforni.com/blog/gluten-free-is-trending", "@type" : "WebPage" }, "publisher" : { "@type" : "Organization", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "https://blog.marraforni.com/hubfs/MF%20Logo%20small.jpg" }, "name" : "Marra Forni - Beltsville, MD" } } ```
