ARROWROOT
PRODUCT INFORMATION
BOOSTS IMMUNITY
Studies have even shown that arrowroot can stimulate immune cells and boost the immune system.
IMPROVES DIGESTION
Because arrowroot is not a grain, many people (especially those with digestive issues or sensitivities) find that arrowroot powder is more easily digestible. It also contains more fiber than potatoes and other starches, keeping things “moving”.
AIDS WEIGHTLOSS
Arrowroot helps to stave off hunger, keeping you fuller for longer thus aiding in weightloss.
THICKENER
Arrowroot powder is a great thickener. It has no taste and leaves food glossy and clear, whereas cornstarch has a slight taste and leaves food cloudy and opaque.
USED IN BAKING, ROASTING AND FRYING
Arrowroot powder is enormously versatile. In baking, it can be blended with other flours, such as almond flour, coconut flour and tapioca flour for bread and dessert recipes. If you’d like to make things crispy or crunchy, arrowroot powder is great for that. You could coat sweet potato fries in a dusting of arrowroot to make them crispier.
