Starwest Botanicals Organic Arrowroot Powder - 1 Pound (16 oz)

I read that arrowroot can thicken like flour but has more nutrients, so I decided to try it. I add just a little at a time, stir well and wait when food cools , it thickens.

Arrowroot Tapioca Powder is easy to prepare into a thickener. Mix the powder with some water of room temperature until it is completely dissolved. Pour the mixture into a pan of cooked food which is ready to be served. The degree of the thickening of the powder is up to the preference of the user. Never put the powder directly into a pan while cooking; otherwise the powder will end in clumps, sticking to the bottom of the pan.

Good thickener for stews

First time we have ever purchased arrowroot, but it was recommended for use as a thickener by our physician in place of flour. This is a pure white, very fine certified organic product that has worked great in the dishes we have tried so far. I am not sure what the shelf life is, but we have kept in air tight containers in a dark, cool area. May try to place a little in the freezer if we still have some in a month or so just to make sure it remains good, as one pound is more than one would think when it comes to a fine powdery spice. We highly recommend this spice and the vendor we purchased it from, as so far, everything has been wonderful.
