Guar Gum is a thickening agent derived from guar beans that has enjoyed much use in various baking applications. It is primarily used in hypoallergenic recipes that use different types of whole grain flours. Because the consistency of these flours allows the escape of gas released by leavening, guar gum is needed to improve the thickness of these flours, allowing them to rise as normal flour would.
This product works by thickening the dough to the proper consistency to prevent the escape of gas released by leavening. It is especially useful as a binder in gluten-free baking.
Good as thickener for low carb gravy or chinese food sauces. Also great when added to a protein shake with ice and blended to a consistency of soft serve ice cream.
Since the soluble fiber is not absorbed, no calories are contributed to the diet. Derived entirely from guar beans. Contains no sugar, salt, yeast, wheat, gluten, corn, soy, milk, egg, shellfish or preservatives.
Ingredients: 100% Pure Guar Gum.
Recommended Use: Add 1/2 teaspoon (1.4g) per cup of flour to aid in the rising of baked goods.
