Banquet Chicken Pot Pie

High histamine

This chicken pot pie is high in histamine, mainly from the yeast extract in the filling.

It is a wheat-flour crust over chicken, carrots, peas, potatoes, and a milky sauce with yeast extract.

  • Yeast extract — this is the main driver. It is a concentrated high-histamine flavoring, so it lifts the whole pie on its own.

  • Wheat flour and onion powder — the flour crust sits at moderate and the onion powder adds to it, while the chicken and vegetables stay milder.

The yeast extract is built into the filling, so a homemade pie is the better route.
