Product Description
Arrowroot is a powdery, highly digestible starch thatmonly used in cooking throughout the caribbean. The plant, which is considered an herb, is native to the caribbean and thrives in the tropical climate. Thees from the rhizomes of the maranta arundinacea plant. St. Vincent and jamaica are the main producers of the arrowroot starch. The name, arrowroot, comes from the indigenous caribbean people and the manner in which they used the plant to treat wounds from poisoned arrows. Also, because of its digestibility, the starch was used medicinally in victorian times to wean infants from mothers milk and nourish those with dietary restrictions. Arrowroot starch also makes an excellent substitute for talcum powder in cosmetics and it was once used in the paper making industry. Gastronomically speaking, arrowroot is gluten free. Its an excellent substitute for cornstarch and flour as a thickening agent in sauces, gravies, pie fillings, and puddings. Arrowroot starch is neutral tasting and tolerates acidic ingredients, such as citrus. The starch also freezes well and dissolves well at lower temperatures. In fact, it must be cooked over low heat as it doesnt endure high temperature cooking and does not reheat well. Also, arrowroot does not do well in milk-based cream sauces (it changes the texture), but bakes well in cakes, cookies and biscuits made with milk.
I ordered this arrowroot powder hoping it would be a good substitute for cornstarch, but it didn't work out as well as I thought. It seemed to lose its thickening power after a short time. I might try another brand next time.

I recently started using Giusto's Arrowroot Powder for my gluten-free baking, and it really makes a difference! The 5lb bag is a great size, and it blends well into my recipes for thickening sauces and puddings. I've noticed my cookies are coming out fluffier too!

The arrowroot powder from Giusto's is pretty good for thickening, but I found it to be slightly clumpy when I first opened the bag. A little bit of sifting helped, but it was a minor inconvenience. Still, it's a solid choice for gluten-free baking!
