Hometown Provisions Arrowroot Powder 25 lb.

Details

Add this Hometown Provisions arrowroot powder to your ingredient list and easily achieve your desired texture for all your gourmet dishes! This powder is derived from the arrowroot plant, a tropical root vegetable native to Latin America and the Caribbean that is known for its high fiber content, potassium, iron, and B vitamins, as well as its ease of digestion. This arrowroot is finely milled, yielding a smooth consistency, white color, and flavorless powder that will not alter the taste, color, or opacity of your dishes. It has a similar appearance and texture to cornstarch but does not break down when combined with acidic ingredients, making it ideal for use with jelly, pie filling, and fruit-based sauces.

Arrowroot is also an excellent choice for thickening soups, sauces, and desserts at a lower temperature than cornstarch, which is great for delicate dishes that won't tolerate high heat. Alternatively, use it as a naturally gluten-free substitution for traditional flour in baking or for battering fried foods. With seemingly endless uses, it can even be mixed into homemade ice cream to prevent ice crystals from forming. To use as a thickener in recipes, it should be added in the form of a slurry to the simmering liquid toward the end of the cooking time. Stir until thickened and be sure to avoid overcooking, which will cause the mixture to breakdown and thin. Packaged in a bulk 25 lb. container for back-of-house use, this versatile powder is perfect for achieving optimal consistency in your cooking!
