Arrowroot Powder

Fresh Harvest Market's Arrowroot Powder is a versatile and natural thickening agent sourced from high-quality arrowroot plants. 

Arrowroot powder, also known as arrowroot starch or flour, is a fine white powder derived from the rhizomes of the arrowroot plant, Maranta arundinacea. The plant is native to South America but is now cultivated in tropical regions around the world. Arrowroot powder is a versatile ingredient used in cooking and baking as a thickening agent, similar to cornstarch or flour.

One of the key features of arrowroot powder is its ability to thicken sauces, soups, and gravies without imparting a cloudy or starchy texture. It has a neutral flavor, making it suitable for use in a wide range of dishes. Arrowroot powder is also used in gluten-free baking as a substitute for wheat flour. It helps lighten the texture of baked goods and can be used in combination with other gluten-free flours to improve the overall texture and consistency. Additionally, arrowroot powder is often used in natural skincare products as a gentle and soothing ingredient.
