Arrowroot Powder

Arrowroot powder is a natural starch derived from the roots of the arrowroot plant. Known for its neutral flavor and exceptional thickening properties, it's a popular ingredient in various culinary applications. Key features and uses: Clear gels: Creates transparent, shimmering gels when combined with liquid, perfect for fruit jellies and desserts. Ice cream stabilizer: Prevents ice crystals from forming in homemade ice cream, resulting in a smoother, creamier texture. Thickener for acidic foods: Ideal for thickening acidic sauces and liquids, such as oriental sweet and sour sauce, without breaking down or becoming grainy. Gluten-free: A great alternative for those with gluten sensitivities or allergies. How to use: For thickening: Gradually whisk arrowroot powder into a cold liquid, then bring to a simmer until thickened. For clear gels: Combine arrowroot powder with a small amount of cold liquid to form a paste, then gradually whisk into a boiling liquid.
