Xanthan

Thickener

200g / 600g

​

Xanthan is an ideal sauce binder that can be used as an alternative to Roux or cornflour. The powder is stirred in with a hand blender and develops its setting properties without having to heat the liquid. Xanthan gum is neutral in taste and very economical: depending on the desired consistency, only about
3 to 4 grams per 1 litre of liquid are needed. Is obtained from fermented maize starch.
