More specifics on histamine and food, including my go-to options on a strict low-histamine diet. Links below to research/resources mentioned, plus the recipes detailed therein, because who doesn't like bonus recipes?

Yummy Strawberry Dessert (NOT low-histamine):

-angel food cake

-large box vanilla pudding mix

-one cup milk

-one pint vanilla ice cream, softened

-one small box strawberry jello mix

-three baskets strawberries, sliced

Prepare jello as instructed, cover and refrigerate until partially firm, an hour or so.

Tear angel food cake into bite-size pieces and distribute evenly into 13x9 casserole dish.

Prepare pudding as directed but using one cup of milk and softened ice cream. Pour evenly over angel food cake.

Add sliced strawberries to partially firm jello, mix well to combine. Pour evenly over angle food cake/pudding.

Cover and refrigerate until firmly set. Serve with whipped cream/cool whip if desired.

Hilde's Granola (low-histamine):

-four cups oats (I use sprouted)

-1/2 teaspoon sea salt

-1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon (less if using strong cinnamon)

-1/2 cup maple syrup

-1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

Pour oats into medium/large mixing bowl, add salt and cinnamon, whisk to distribute (I use a flat whisk for this).

Add maple syrup and stir a few times, then add coconut oil and mix thoroughly.

Evenly distribute into baking sheet lined with parchment and gently pat down with spatula.

Bake at 300, convect if you have it, for one hour, rotating pan 180-degrees halfway through.

Remove and let cool before breaking into pieces for storage. (And yes, pulling up the corners of parchment until large triangles break off is absolutely one of the most satisfying experiences ever. You're welcome.)

ENJOY!
