I love to cook Italian, Asian, and various other European style dishes. As a chef, how can I help make the experience for the eater to be "less gassy?" I love my cooking, but I still tend to get too much gas from my dishes. What tips are there in reducing flatulation in nicely prepared dishes?

What causes flatulation in diet and how can I prevent this????
Thanks for the tips but my question isn’t being answered. I understand what causes gas and I personally do not have a gas problem moreso than others. My question relates to the preparation of food to reduce the chances of people getting gas.

I eat some cooking and I feel great, but other’s cooking leads to gas.

Is it soaking the vegetables such as onions, garlic in cold water and rinsing off the water? Can foods be paired in a way to reduce the effects of gas?

The question is about cooking and preparing food, not about why anyone gets gas. Sorry for the misunderstanding and thanks for the initial response. The first 7 questions address the overall cause and medicinal cures for gas. That’s ok, but I’m interested in preventative food preparation.

Thanks all!

I’m doing the South Beach diet, all is going well so far and I like it…the only thing is I have a husband and 2 boys who are not big fans of spinach omelets and turkey burgers. (imagine that!) I still have to make stuff for them, like last night we had bananas and pumpkin puree that needed to be used or thrown out, so I made them a really good bread (which I did not eat!) and tonight they want spaghetti, which is my favorite, and not unhealthy, but not part of my diet. Hubby offered to do the cooking, but it still sucks, I’ll eat bean sprouts or something equally wonderful while they have spaghetti and garlic bread.
Has anyone else done this? Any suggestions?
